Kidney Function Scan with Multiple Timed Studies

West Virginia rates for HCPCS 78709

This is a nuclear medicine scan of the kidneys that tracks blood flow and function over time, using a small amount of radioactive tracer, and includes giving a medication partway through to see how the kidneys respond. Repeating the imaging in multiple timed studies helps distinguish a true blockage from a kidney that is simply slow to drain, or helps evaluate blood flow to the kidney under different conditions.
