Happy Friday!

I'm looking for a Surgical path CPT code for Heart Vessel? I was thinking maybe 88305 but I'm not a 100% sure. My physician code 88302 and 88307 but I don't think either is correct. The report states "consists of three yellow-white pieces of vessel measuring 8 x 5.5 x 2.5 cm in aggregate. A representative section is submitted in one cassette labeled BA."

Any help please??

I would probably go with a 88305...88307 is for a heart biopsy,....artery/veins segments are 88305 so that is probably the best bet.
