Please see the example below. I'm trying to figure out if this would be 3 extremities - Upper, Lower and Trunk (since the rectus abdominis muscle doesn't fall under either upper or lower extremity). Would you use cpt 95863 in this situation? Thanks in advance for your help.

Spontaneous Electromyography (spEMG) - Lower

Rectus Abdominis, Iliopsoas, Quadriceps -
Vastus Lateralis, Tibialis Anterior, Biceps

Spontaneous Electromyography (spEMG) - Upper
Extremity
Bilateral Deltoid, Biceps Brachii, Triceps, Thenar,
Hypothenar
