The CPT codes that should be reported are 52010 (Cystourethroscopy, with Ejaculatory Duct Catheterization, with or without Irrigation, Instillation, or Duct Radiography, Exclusive of Radiologic Service) and 74440 (Vasography, Vesiculography, or Epidemiography, Radiological Supervision and Interpretation) Duct radiography was performed, therefore the radiological S&I also needs to be reported. In parenthesis under code 52010, it directs the coder to code 74440, the appropriate radiological S&I code.
