Spinal Tap (Lumbar Puncture)

HCPCS 62270

Spinal puncture, lumbar, diagnostic

AI EXPLANATION: A spinal tap, medically known as a lumbar puncture, is a diagnostic procedure used to collect cerebrospinal fluid—the clear liquid that surrounds and cushions the brain and spinal cord. During the procedure, a clinician gently inserts a thin, hollow needle into the lower back between the vertebrae to withdraw a small sample of fluid. This sample is sent to a laboratory for evaluation to help diagnose central nervous system conditions, such as infections, bleeding, or neurological disorders.
