ICD-10-PCS Body System: ICD-10-PCS Body System BV - Male Reproductive System

The ICD-10-PCS root operation BV refers to Imaging of the Male Reproductive System. This involves capturing visual representations of the anatomy or function through various diagnostic imaging techniques without invasive intervention.

This classification includes procedures like Plain Radiography (BV0), where images are generated by external ionizing radiation captured on photographic plates. Fluoroscopy (BV1) provides real-time moving images using ionizing radiation on a fluorescent screen, useful for dynamic examination. Advanced modalities such as Computerized Tomography (CT Scan) (BV2) use multiple exposures to create detailed multiplanar digital images. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) (BV3) utilizes radiofrequency signals within a magnetic field to produce high-resolution multiplanar views. Lastly, Ultrasonography (BV4) employs high-frequency sound waves to display anatomical structures or blood flow in real time. These imaging codes accurately document the diagnostic evaluation of the male reproductive system using noninvasive techniques.

List of ICD-10-PCS procedures under ICD-10-PCS Body System BV - Male Reproductive System

  • BV0 - Plain Radiography - Planar display of an image developed from the capture of external ionizing radiation on photographic or photoconductive plate

  • BV1 - Fluoroscopy - Single plane or bi-plane real time display of an image developed from the capture of external ionizing radiation on fluorescent screen. The image may also be stored by either digital or analog means

  • BV2 - Computerized Tomography (CT Scan) - Computer-reformatted digital display of multiplanar images developed from the capture of multiple exposures of external ionizing radiation

  • BV3 - 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

  • BV4 - Ultrasonography - Real time display of images of anatomy or flow information developed from the capture of reflected and attenuated high frequency sound waves
