ICD-10-PCS Body System: ICD-10-PCS Body System B8 - Eye

The ICD-10-PCS root operation for the Eye in the Imaging section includes several diagnostic techniques that produce visual representations of ocular structures. These imaging procedures help in detecting, monitoring, and diagnosing eye conditions.

The eye imaging codes cover different modalities such as Plain Radiography (code B80), which uses external ionizing radiation to produce a planar image. More advanced techniques include Computerized Tomography (CT Scan) (code B82), which generates multiplanar images from multiple exposures, and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) (code B83), which captures radio frequency signals within a magnetic field for detailed cross-sectional views. Additionally, Ultrasonography (code B84) offers real-time visualization by using high-frequency sound waves to image ocular anatomy or blood flow. Together, these procedures represent the range of diagnostic imaging methods coded under root operation B8 for the eye, enabling precise clinical assessment without invasive intervention.

List of ICD-10-PCS procedures under ICD-10-PCS Body System B8 - Eye

  • B80 - Plain Radiography - Planar display of an image developed from the capture of external ionizing radiation on photographic or photoconductive plate

  • B82 - Computerized Tomography (CT Scan) - Computer-reformatted digital display of multiplanar images developed from the capture of multiple exposures of external ionizing radiation

  • B83 - Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) - Computer reformatted digital display of multiplanar images developed from the capture of radio frequency signals emitted by nuclei in a body site excited within a magnetic field

  • B84 - Ultrasonography - Real time display of images of anatomy or flow information developed from the capture of reflected and attenuated high frequency sound waves
