Can any one tell me how to code the report below
AP pelvis and frog-lateral right hip -
The hip joint spaces are narrowed symmetrically. Some osteophyte formation is present on the femoral necks. Bilateral protrusio acetabuli is present. Degenerative narrowing and facet sclerosis are present in the lower lumbosacral spine. No acute fractures or bone destruction.
1. Pelvis. Findings consistent with rheumatoid arthritis. Negative for recent bony injury.

Is it coded as 73500, 72170 or,
73510 alone or,
73520-52
Please clarify......
