ICD-10-PCS B32 Imaging: Upper Arteries Computerized Tomography (CT Scan)

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Computerized Tomography (CT Scan) (B32) in the Imaging section refers to creating detailed cross-sectional images of arteries using CT technology. This imaging technique provides clinicians with precise views of vascular structures without invasive procedures.

Within this classification, computerized tomography is employed to examine various arteries such as the Thoracic Aorta (B3200ZZ through B320ZZZ), Bilateral Common Carotid Arteries (B3250ZZ to B325ZZZ), Bilateral Internal Carotid Arteries (B3280ZZ to B328ZZZ), Bilateral Vertebral Arteries (B32G0ZZ to B32GZZZ), Intracranial Arteries (B32R0ZZ to B32RZZZ), and the Right and Left Pulmonary Arteries (B32S0ZZ to B32SZZZ and B32T0ZZ to B32TZZZ). These codes also specify the use of different types of contrast materials, including high and low osmolar contrast, other contrast agents, or intravascular optical coherence, highlighting the precise documentation available for various CT angiography procedures. Applying these imaging codes ensures detailed and accurate recording of arterial CT scans in ICD-10-PCS.

List of ICD-10-PCS codes used to specify B32 - Computerized Tomography (CT Scan) (computer-reformatted digital display of multiplanar images developed from the capture of multiple exposures of external ionizing radiation). There are a total of 36 procedure codes in this section.
