Hello-

Can someone please clarify when an MRI of the brain and an MRI of the sinuses are ordered what code or codes should be used? There has been some debate as to whether it should be 70551 (or 70553) or 70540, 70543, thanks
 
MRI of brain and MRI of sinuses

I work exclusively in Radiology, and I would code 70540 for MRI of the sinuses if no contrast was used.
