Summary
In this procedure, the provider focuses near–infrared light on the skin to detect any abnormal lesions or scar formation. The light source connects to a computer that displays the image of the tissue under examination. Use this code when the provider saves the images, interprets the result, and reports the findings for each additional skin lesion, area of diseased or damaged tissue.
