CPT code for CD4/CD8

We just found out about the new code 86360 for the absolute number for CD4 and CD8 cells and CD4/CD8 ratio.  We have been using the 88180 code and are unsure if the new code is to be used or if it is to be used for the CD4/CD8 test done by other methods than flow cytometry.
Any insight from the regulatory experts?

Thank you - Andrea
