Whole-Body Nuclear Scan Over Two or More Days

West Virginia rates for HCPCS 78804

A nuclear medicine scan in which a radioactive tracer is injected and the whole body is imaged, with pictures taken across two or more days rather than in one session. The extra time lets the tracer clear from normal tissue so abnormal collections stand out. It is used to search the whole body for a tumor or a hidden site of infection.
