I need the code for a transjugular liver biopsy. Does one exist?

Liver biopsy
I did not find a code and have not heard of a liver biopsy done by transjugular approach.
Sorry, I could be wrong.

Transjugular Liver Biopsy
I found it its 50.13 "ICD9 Volume III Code". May be you were looking in the CPT® like me.
Sorry for my previous response, never heard of such approach before, but now I have.
