36246 Selective catheter placement, arterial system; initial second order abdominal, pelvic, or lower extremity artery branch within a vascular family

+36248 Selective catheter placement, arterial system; additional second order, third order and beyond, abdominal, pelvic, or lower extremity artery branch within a vascular family (list in addition to code for initial second or third order vessel as appropriate)

You also code the radiological component when performed (surgeon/radiologist)
