CPT® Code 76125

Cineradiography/videoradiography to complement routine examination (List separately in addition to code for primary procedure)

Cineradiography/videoradiography is a specialized imaging technique that integrates cinematographic, fluoroscopic, and radiographic methods to produce a dynamic visual representation of a specific anatomical area. This procedure captures body motion through a camera that is connected to the output port of a fluoroscopic image intensifier. The captured motion is then transformed into real-time video images, which can be displayed on a monitor for immediate viewing or recorded for subsequent analysis. This allows radiologists to review and interpret the individual frames in either stop action or fast action, providing a comprehensive understanding of the anatomical structures and their movements. The CPT® Code 76125 is specifically designated for instances where cineradiography/videoradiography is performed as an adjunct to a routine examination, and it is important to note that this code is reported separately in addition to the code for the primary procedure. In contrast, CPT® Code 76120 is used to report cineradiography/videoradiography when it is not included as part of an examination.
