ICD-10-PCS BR2 Imaging: Axial Skeleton, Except Skull and Facial Bones Computerized Tomography (CT Scan)
The ICD-10-PCS root operation Computerized Tomography (CT Scan) (code BR2) involves imaging the axial skeleton, excluding the skull and facial bones, using advanced CT technology. This procedure produces detailed cross-sectional images of specific body parts for diagnostic purposes.
Within the Imaging classification, CT Scan codes specify the targeted body part and contrast media used. Examples include scanning the Cervical Spine with different contrast types such as high osmolar (BR200ZZ), low osmolar (BR201ZZ), or other contrasts (BR20YZZ), as well as without contrast (BR20ZZZ). Similarly, codes exist for the Thoracic Spine, Lumbar Spine, Pelvis, Sacroiliac Joints, and Sacrum and Coccyx, each with options for contrast use. These detailed codes ensure precise documentation of the CT imaging procedure performed on various axial skeleton areas, essential for accurate medical records and billing.
List of ICD-10-PCS codes used to specify BR2 - 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 25 procedure codes in this section.
