About the 00K Code Range
These procedures map the paths electrical signals follow or locate functional areas in the brain and its named regions.
The fourth character identifies the brain site. The fifth distinguishes open exposure, entry through a puncture or small incision, entry with a scope, and external work. The sixth character is No Device. The seventh distinguishes Connectomic Analysis from No Qualifier.
