CPT code 87661 refers to a specific procedure used for the detection of certain infectious agents, particularly the molecular testing of respiratory pathogens. It involves the amplification and detection of nucleic acids from viruses such as influenza and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). This code is commonly used in clinical settings for diagnosing respiratory infections through methods like polymerase chain reaction (PCR).
