The primary CPT code that should be billed with 76937-26, which refers to the professional component of ultrasound guidance for needle placement, is typically the code for the specific procedure being performed, such as a biopsy or aspiration. For example, if a fine needle aspiration is performed, you would use CPT code 10005 or 10006 depending on the site of the aspiration. It's essential to ensure that the procedure code aligns with the ultrasound guidance code for accurate billing.
The CPT code for a biopsy of a lymph node by fine needle aspiration (FNA) without image guidance is 10021.

No, 42400 is not the correct procedure code for a fine needle aspiration of the salivary gland. The correct code for this procedure is typically found under the code range 10021-10022. I recommend consulting with a certified medical coder or the Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) manual for accurate coding information.
