In the condition known as syringomyelia, a fluid-filled cyst inside the spinal cord known as a syrinx develops. You can find code 62269 by searching for Biopsy/Spinal Cord/Percutaneous in the CPT® Index.

The nerve fibres that transmit information to the brain and from the brain to the rest of the body can become compressed and injured when the syrinx grows larger over time causing Syringomyelia. Instructional remark for Biopsy code 62269 states to refer to 76942, 77002, and 77012 for radiological supervision and interpretation. You can separately bill for ultrasound advice for needle placement (76942) in Biopsy. For the expert services, modifier 26 is added. Syringomyelia in the ICD-10-CM Alphabetic Index, which points you toward code G95.0. Code selection is confirmed through tabular list verification.

Which of the statements about muscle contraction is correct?A) During muscle contraction the sarcomere becomes shorter.B) During
Komok [63]

Answer:

1. E) During muscle contraction all of the answers above are correct.

2. A) Myosin pulls actin filaments toward the M disk.

Explanation:

The mechanism of muscle contraction is also known as the sliding filament theory. It explains the activities which occur during contraction of muscles.

Muscles are made up of functional units called sarcomeres and these sarcomeres made up of myofibrils which are long and thin strands of protein. Myofibrils contain thin filaments called actin and thick filaments called myosin. Interactions between the thin and thick filaments results in contraction.

The I band contains thin filaments. The H band is the area of no thin filaments. The M line is the midline of the thick filaments. The Z line is the boundary between adjacent sarcomeres and the A band is the area of thick filaments.

Contraction occurs when muscle fibres are activated by neurons through the release of calcium ion. On stimulation, the H and I band get smaller, the zone of overlap gets larger and the Z lines move closer together and the A band remains constant. This the thin filaments slide towards the center resulting in the shortening of the sarcomeres and the muscle fibres as a whole.
