Caudal ESI with ultrsound guidance

What is the correct way to code for a caudal ESI under ultrasound guidance? 62322 , 76942 or 62323?
The current NCCI edits show 76942 to be a column two code for 62322 and a modifier is allowed.
Does the "with imaging guidance" in 62323 include ultrasound?

62322- Injection(s) of diagnostic or therapeutic substance(s) (eg. anesthetic, antispasmodic, opioid, steroid, other solution). not including neurolytic substances, including needle or catheter placement, interlaminar epidural or subarachnoid, lumbar or sacral (caudal): without imaging guidance
62323 – with Imaging guidance (ie, fluoroscopy or CT)
(Do not report 62323 in conjunction with 77003, 77012, 76942) (I interpret this parenthetical note to apply only to 62323 and to mean you would not report ultrasound if you are reporting fluoroscopy, or CT guidance)

76942 – Ultrasound guidance for needle placement (eg, biopsy, aspiration, injection, localization device), imaging supervision and interpretation
