Detailed Microscopic Measurement Of A Nerve Sample

Wyoming rates for HCPCS 88356

This laboratory service applies detailed, measurement-based microscopic analysis to a nerve tissue sample taken during a biopsy, quantifying features such as fiber size and density rather than just describing what is seen. It is used to help diagnose and characterize certain nerve disorders, including some forms of peripheral neuropathy, when a standard visual review isn't enough. The sample is typically obtained during a small surgical nerve biopsy.
