Question: When do you use 75630 vs 75625

I am completely confused on Abdominal Aortic imaging. Does CPT code 75625 require 2 catheter placements or not? For example, physician places a catheter in the abdominal aorta near the renal arteries and performs abdominal aortography, also documents bilateral pelvic and common femoral artery imaging. The physician then moves the catheter to the SFA and completes the angiography with chase bolus runoff to the foot on the left. Is this coded as 36247, 75625, 75716 or is it 36247, 75630?
