nameDeprecated Lung NM ventilation W radionuclide gaseous IH single breath
statusDEPRECATED
status reasonDuplicate - As of 2011, the ACR and SNM do not recommend specifying "single breath", "gaseous" and "aerosol" as distinct techniques, and the CPT codes specifying these techniques were also deleted. The LOINC term that includes the Challenge "W radionuclide IH" without specifying single breath, gaseous or aerosol is recommended.
