QT Imaging Secures CPT Code for 3D Breast Ultrasound Tomography Reimbursement
QT Imaging received an AMA Category III CPT code for its 3D breast ultrasound tomography, creating a specific reimbursement pathway for its QT Ultrasound system. The new code enables hospitals and imaging centers to bill payors for the procedure, accelerating clinical adoption and revenue growth in U.S. breast imaging.
1. CPT Code Approval
QT Imaging obtained an AMA Category III CPT code for 3D breast ultrasound tomography, establishing a dedicated billing code for its QT Ultrasound system. Category III codes enable interim reimbursement for emerging procedures while clinical evidence is collected.
2. Adoption and Revenue Potential
With a specific CPT code in place, hospitals and imaging centers can bill payors for QT Imaging’s 3D breast ultrasound tomography procedure, improving reimbursement clarity. Industry analysts expect this clarity to shorten sales cycles and drive system placements across U.S. breast imaging facilities.
3. Future Outlook
QT Imaging will engage Medicare and private insurers to establish coverage terms and reimbursement rates under the new code, with billing expected in the coming months. Wider adoption could elevate annual scanning volumes and bolster the company’s long-term revenue trajectory.
