CPT code 27095 covers hip arthrography performed by injecting contrast into the hip joint followed by fluoroscopic or radiographic imaging, with administration of anesthesia. This procedure is an imaging-guided diagnostic injection used to evaluate intra-articular hip pathology, labral tears, cartilage defects, and prosthetic joint assessments when indicated. Nationally, hip arthrography remains an important modality in the diagnostic pathway for select orthopedic and radiology practices because it combines targeted contrast injection with immediate imaging under anesthesia to improve diagnostic accuracy and patient tolerance.
