ICD-10-PCS B33 Imaging: Upper Arteries Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) (code starting with B33) refers to a non-invasive imaging procedure using magnetic resonance technology to visualize arteries. This operation is classified under the Imaging section and focuses on detailed scanning of blood vessels.

This operation includes MRI of various arterial locations, such as the Thoracic Aorta (B330ZZZ), Bilateral Common Carotid Arteries (B335ZZZ), and Bilaterally Internal Carotid Arteries (B338ZZZ). The codes also specify use of contrast agents, with designations for Other Contrast and distinctions for Unenhanced and Enhanced imaging, as seen in B330Y0Z and B335Y0Z. Imaging of upper extremity arteries and spinal arteries is similarly represented (e.g., B33HYZZ for the right upper extremity arteries and B33MZZZ for spinal arteries). This robust classification supports precise documentation of magnetic resonance angiography procedures across a broad range of arterial segments.

List of ICD-10-PCS codes used to specify B33 - 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). There are a total of 31 procedure codes in this section.
