Fluoroscopy

Can I bill for using intraoperative fluoroscopy (C-arm) to assist in hardware placement before, during and after the procedure? The images are all taken while in the operating room. If so, do I need a modifier for the code? Can I use the same CPT for the surgery with the code for the intraoperative x-ray or does it require a different CPT code? Thank you!
