General question:
MD inserts cath into left common femoral artery
advances cath into the aorta and injects contracts at the origin of the renal arteries, comments on the abd aorta and renal arteries. Then pulls back just above the origin of the iliac arteries, comments on both iliacs. (75625 and 75716?)
Next, cath is placed into the right common femoral artery and injects again, and comments all all the vessels of the right leg.
Performs atherectomy of right AT (37229)
Finally, Ansel sheath is replaced by short sheath which in the left common femoral artery and does a left extremity angio and comments on all the vessels of the left leg as well.
How are are the individual leg angios handled?
