Receptor Measurement For A Specific Hormone

Rhode Island rates for HCPCS 84235

Measures how many docking points for one named hormone are present in a sample of tissue or cells, with the ordering clinician specifying which hormone is of interest. Receptors are the sites a hormone has to attach to before it can act, so their number shows how strongly that tissue is able to respond to it. Receptors for estrogen and for progesterone are measured by their own separate tests and are not what this covers.
