What is the CPT code for a CT scan of the head?
For example, the codes for head CT are 70450 (without contrast), 70460 (with contrast), and 70470 (combined). The codes for diagnostic CT scans without contrast require only general physician supervision.

What is a CTA vs CT with contrast?

What is CT venogram?
CT cerebral venography (also known as a CTV head or CT venogram) is a contrast-enhanced examination with an acquisition delay providing an accurate detailed depiction of the cerebral venous system.
What is the difference between a CT coronary angiogram and a coronary angiogram?
A CT coronary angiogram differs from a standard coronary angiogram. The traditional procedure (non- CT angiogram) uses a flexible tube (catheter) threaded through the groin or arm to the heart or coronary arteries. For those with known coronary artery disease, the traditional approach can also be used as treatment.
What is the difference between a CT angiogram and a CT scan with IV contrast?
A CT angiogram of the chest to evaluate for aortic dissection will have the timing set so the contrast is present in the aorta. Meanwhile, a general CT of the chest with IV contrast will have the contrast timed so that it is present within the capillary bed of the soft tissues.
Is a CTA scan the same as a CAT scan?
