This is for hospital OP

If the surgeon does both axillary lymphatic mapping using blue dye injection and radioactive sulfur colloid injection with sentinel lymph node biopsy.
Which CPT do you code 38900 or 38792?

Lymphoseek (tilmanocept) 125.0 uCi Tc-99m tilmanocept was injected intradermally at 4 sites in the left periareolar orientation x4, using standard radiation safety and sterile technique followed by injection of 5 mL of sulfan blue dye in a retroareolar orientation. Five minutes of breast massage was completed during prep and drape of both breasts and axillae.
