Wiki Placement of stereotactic markers

[MnTwins29]

Any ideas on the CPT code for this when placing the markers in the brain? Anything I find for these markers is for other regions. I am not sure if the codes for lesion creation would be applicable here, so I am asking others who may have more experience in this field than myself for a little assistance. Thank you.

What are the markers being placed for? Your wording is making me think of Fiducials implanted prior to DBS, but that may not be the case... Can you give more info?
