75565 Card MRI veloc flow mapping
Also known as: phase contrast MRI, velocity mapping, flow quantification
Magnetic resonance imaging with velocity flow mapping to assess blood flow velocity and direction through cardiac chambers and valves.
In Plain Language
heart flow measurement imaging; blood flow mapping
Clinical Context
Quantifies valvular regurgitation, shunt flow (left-to-right), and great vessel flow; assesses cardiac output and stenosis severity.
RVU Breakdown
| Work RVU | 0.24 |
| Total RVU | 0.24 |
Est. Medicare Payment
National estimate based on 2026 CMS PFS Conversion Factor ($33.40). Actual payment varies by locality (GPCI adjustment).
Billing & Documentation
Radiology codes require a written order, clinical indication, and a formal interpretation report. The professional component (modifier -26) and technical component (modifier -TC) may be billed separately.
How This Code Compares
