Wiki Ultrasound of soft tissue lower back

[Clambdildine]

One of my docs ordered an ultrasound of a "Mass at lower left back near sacroiliac region". It is an ulisted procedure. There is not a code for an ultrasound of soft tissue in that area. Does anyone know what procedure I can compare it to to get a price for it. The closest thing I found w/b Ultrasound pelvic (nonobstretic) but that doesn't quite seem right either. Anyone have an idea or run into this before?

Thanks

In the ED, we use the limited US, 76705, when evaluating a lower back palpable mass.

CPT Assistant, May 2009, and ACR's Ultrasound Coding User's Guide agree with 76705.
Both have a list of codes to use for soft tissue ultrasound for various body areas.
