ICD-10-PCS BP4 Imaging: Non-Axial Upper Bones Ultrasonography

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Ultrasonography (code BP4) refers to imaging performed using sound waves to visualize anatomical structures, particularly bones and joints, without the use of ionizing radiation. It is part of the Imaging section, focusing on non-invasive diagnostic techniques.

This operation is commonly applied to evaluate the upper bones and related joints such as the shoulder, elbow, wrist, and hand. The provided codes demonstrate specific applications, like ultrasonography of the right shoulder (BP48ZZZ) and left wrist (BP4MZZZ). Some codes include densitometry (e.g., BP4LZZ1) to measure bone density during the ultrasound exam. These detailed ICD-10-PCS ultrasonography codes enable precise documentation of imaging procedures used for diagnosing musculoskeletal conditions in the upper extremities, supporting accurate clinical records and billing processes.

List of ICD-10-PCS codes used to specify BP4 - 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 17 procedure codes in this section.
