=== Related Imaging, Diagnostic and Therapeutic procedures performed at the same time ===
Some intervention are both diagnostic/imaging and therapeutic. For those situations, only code the therapeutic part.
*When at the same sitting both diagnostic and therapeutic procedures are done, then CODE THEM BOTH
**e.g. a cardiac cath is done and then a stent is placed -- code the diagnostic cath and the therapeutic stenting.
* e.g. for a [[Angiogram, coronary (diagnostic cardiac catheterization)]] where [[Angioplasty, coronary (with stenting)]] happens in the same sitting, code both
* if a tissue [[Biopsy (non-endoscopic)]]/[[Biopsy (endoscopic)]] is done as part of an invasive [[Inspection, Exploration (non-endoscopic)]]/[[Inspection, Exploration (endoscopic)]] code both
*When multiple procedures are done at one sitting, code them all
**e.g. if a CT of chest, abdomen and pelvis is done, code them all


For endoscopic inspection/explorations, code only the '''"furthest/deepest"''' area assessed.

Examples:
* for a [[Angiogram, coronary (diagnostic cardiac catheterization)]] where [[Angioplasty, coronary (with stenting)]] happens in the same sitting, only code the [[Angioplasty, coronary (with stenting)]].
* if a tissue [[Biopsy (non-endoscopic)]]/[[Biopsy (endoscopic)]] is done as part of an invasive [[Inspection, Exploration (non-endoscopic)]]/[[Inspection, Exploration (endoscopic)]] code only the [[Biopsy (non-endoscopic)]]/[[Biopsy (endoscopic)]].
* If a CT is done on the abdomen, chest and pelvis, enter 3 entries in the component area?
