ICD-10-PCS BB2 Imaging: Respiratory System Computerized Tomography (CT Scan)

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Computerized Tomography (CT Scan) (Code BB2) in the Imaging section refers to using CT technology to create detailed images of internal structures, specifically the Respiratory System in this classification.

This operation enables precise visualization of respiratory anatomy such as the bilateral lungs, tracheobronchial trees, and trachea/airways. The extensive code list exemplifies diverse applications, including CT scans using different types of contrast media: High Osmolar Contrast, Low Osmolar Contrast, and Other Contrast. Each contrast type can be used in either unenhanced and enhanced modalities or simply enhanced. For example, code BB2400Z specifies a CT scan of the bilateral lungs using high osmolar contrast both unenhanced and enhanced, while BB2FZZZ indicates a CT scan of the trachea/airways without specifying contrast. These codes allow detailed documentation of the imaging technique and body part examined, which is vital for accurate procedural coding and clinical communication related to respiratory system CT scans.

List of ICD-10-PCS codes used to specify BB2 - 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.
