Bubble Ultrasound Of Arteries Inside The Head

Florida rates for HCPCS 93893

An ultrasound probe held against the skull listens to blood flowing through the arteries inside the head and picks up tiny bubbles or clot fragments passing through. A small amount of agitated saline is injected into an arm vein first so that bubbles can be tracked as they travel. It is often used to look for a passage in the heart or lungs that lets blood bypass the lung filter, one possible cause of stroke in younger people.
