The CPT code to use for a sophagram or barium swallow is 74220. This test is administered when a patient has pain or difficulty when swallowing.

Barium oxide is formed from barium and oxygen.
Barium Dichloride is NOT correct. The name is Barium Chloride it is a binary ionic compound.
Since both barium chloride and barium sulfate contain one mole of barium atoms pert mole of compound, the moles of barium sulfate will be the same, 0.100, when barium has the limiting concentration in the production of the sulfate.
Since barium sulfate and barium chloride have a 1:1 molar ratio, you would need the same amount of barium chloride as barium sulfate, so 100 grams.
The CPT code for barium swallow is 74220. If cineradiography or video assistance is used for a swallowing function study, then 74230 is appropriate.

The CPT code for a Barium enema with KUB (Kidneys, Ureters, and Bladder) is 74280.
The specific code for a barium enema with or without a KUB (kidney, ureter, bladder X-ray) would depend on the specific details of the procedure. However, the most commonly assigned code for a barium enema is CPT code 74280. Additional codes may be used for the KUB X-ray if performed. It is important to consult the current version of the CPT code book for accurate and up-to-date coding information.
Esophageal radiography, also called a barium esophagram or a barium swallow, is a study of the esophagus only, and is usually performed as part of the upper GI series.
CPT code 74280 is used to report a barium enema with KUB (kidneys, ureters, and bladder) imaging. This code includes the entire procedure of administering the barium enema and performing the KUB imaging.

CPT code 74220 refers to a diagnostic imaging procedure for gastrointestinal tract studies, specifically for a barium swallow study. This procedure involves the oral administration of a barium contrast material to visualize the esophagus, stomach, and upper part of the small intestine using X-ray imaging. It is typically used to diagnose conditions such as swallowing difficulties, gastroesophageal reflux, or structural abnormalities.
Some common types of barium studies include barium swallow (esophagram) to evaluate the esophagus, barium meal (upper GI series) to assess the stomach and small intestine, and barium enema (lower GI series) to examine the large intestine and rectum. These studies involve swallowing or administering a contrast material containing barium that shows up clearly on X-rays, allowing the radiologist to visualize the structures and identify any abnormalities.
