Apatient with hydronephrosis has a left nephrostomy and he has agreed to a pyelography (ivp) to rule out a right renal obstruction. the patient was placed prone on the x-ray table one hour after iv infusion of contrast. contrast flowed from the left and right renal pelvis, down the ureters into the bladder where a foley catheter was positioned. the ivp showed no obstruction or abnormalities in the urinary tract aside from the left hydronephrosis of the pelvis. the right kidney and ureter showed no obstruction. bladder appeared within normal limits. what cpt® code is reported for the radiological services?

The CPT code to be reported in radiological services is 74400-26 76604. This codes mean   Ultrasound, chest (includes mediastinum), real time with image documentation.  CPT stands for “Current Procedural Terminology”.  In every medical, diagnostic, or surgical procedure or service has an associated 5-digit CPT code assigned to it. 

tsd is temerature dependent sex determination.

tsd: it is a type of environmental sex determination in which the temperature experienced during embryonic/ larval development (ambient temperature for development) determine the sex of the offspring.

crocodile displays the tsd where the ambient temperature of the developing egg determines the individual's sex. for example in the american alligator's eggs, incubation at 33 ºc produces mostly males, while incubation at 30 ºc produces mostly females. so if the american alligator's egg will get the ambient temperature (33 degree celcius)during embryonic development from egg, the offspring will be male and same for the female sex determination.
