Breast ultrasound is a diagnostic technique which is performed to screen the tumors and other abnormalities of breast. High frequency sound waves are used for the imaging purpose. These sound waves show clear inside images of breast abnormalities and tumors. Breast ultrasound is safe for pregnant women and breast feeding mothers because it does not use harmful radiations. The patient is allowed to lie on her back and a conductor gel is applied all over the breast. A device named transducer is rolled over the breast which transfers high frequency sound waves. These waves show imaging on the screen.
Bilateral breast ultrasound means ultrasound procedure is performed on both the breasts. Patient lie down on bed and a conductor gel is applied for easy movement of transducer over it. The sound waves transfer and show imaging on computer. The CPT code is 76641.
Unilateral breast ultrasound involves the diagnosis of one sided breast. So conducting gel is applied on required breast and transducer is moved onto it. The sound waves through transducer travels and shows imaging on computer. The CPT code for unilateral breast ultrasound is 76641.
In left breast ultrasound, the conducting gel is applied on left breast only and then transducer is moved over it. The high frequency sound waves transfer signals and shows clear imaging on the screen. The CPT code for complete left breast ultrasound is 76642.
The right sided breast is covered with conducting gel and then transducer is rolled on right breast. This transducer sends and receives signals of high frequency sound waves showing clear image on the computer screen. The CPT code is 76641 for partial and complete diagnosis.
Spot compression breast ultrasound is performed by compression of a specific spot in breast. The procedure involves a transducer sending images to the computer and shows clear internal imaging on screen. This verifies the presence of tumor in breast. The CPT code is 76641.
Breast biopsy is the next level diagnostic test for the verification of type of cancer. This can be carried out under the guidance of ultrasound. The ultrasound waves shows where the lump is exactly present and then biopsy needle is inserted to take sample. CPT ode for this is 19083.
Breast ultrasound screening is the diagnosis of tumor present in the breast. The procedure involves a conducting gel, transducer and a computer to view the inside condition of patient. The clear images are obtained on computer screen. The CPT code for this is76641.

CPT Code For Breast Ultrasound Unilateral
Unilateral breast ultrasound involves the diagnosis of one sided breast. So conducting gel is applied on required breast and transducer is moved onto it. The sound waves through transducer travels and shows imaging on computer. The CPT code for unilateral breast ultrasound is 76641.
CPT Code For Left Breast Ultrasound
In left breast ultrasound, the conducting gel is applied on left breast only and then transducer is moved over it. The high frequency sound waves transfer signals and shows clear imaging on the screen. The CPT code for complete left breast ultrasound is 76642.
CPT Code For Right Breast Ultrasound
The right sided breast is covered with conducting gel and then transducer is rolled on right breast. This transducer sends and receives signals of high frequency sound waves showing clear image on the computer screen. The CPT code is 76641 for partial and complete diagnosis.
CPT Code For Breast Ultrasound With Spot Compression
Spot compression breast ultrasound is performed by compression of a specific spot in breast. The procedure involves a transducer sending images to the computer and shows clear internal imaging on screen. This verifies the presence of tumor in breast. The CPT code is 76641.
CPT Code For Breast Ultrasound Guided Biopsy
Breast biopsy is the next level diagnostic test for the verification of type of cancer. This can be carried out under the guidance of ultrasound. The ultrasound waves shows where the lump is exactly present and then biopsy needle is inserted to take sample. CPT ode for this is 19083.
