ICD-10-PCS B24 Imaging: Heart Ultrasonography
The ICD-10-PCS root operation Ultrasonography (B24) involves imaging various parts of the heart using high-frequency sound waves to create internal pictures. This procedure is classified under the Imaging section and is used to evaluate heart structures and function without the need for invasive techniques.
This ultrasonography operation covers a wide range of cardiac imaging scenarios, such as imaging the Single Coronary Artery with or without contrast (codes like B240YZZ), and performing Intravascular or Transesophageal approaches (e.g., B240ZZ3, B240ZZ4). It also includes assessment of the Right Heart, Left Heart, or both using various methods (e.g., B244ZZZ for right heart, B245ZZZ for left heart, and B246ZZZ for both). Other examples include ultrasonography of the Heart with Aorta (B24BZZZ) and the Pericardium (B24CZZZ), as well as procedures tailored for the Pediatric Heart (B24DZZZ). These codes enable precise documentation of cardiac imaging techniques important for diagnosis and treatment planning.
List of ICD-10-PCS codes used to specify B24 - Ultrasonography (real time display of images of anatomy or flow information developed from the capture of reflected and attenuated high frequency sound waves). There are a total of 33 procedure codes in this section.
