ICD-10-PCS BT0 Imaging: Urinary System Plain Radiography

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Plain Radiography (code BT0) refers to obtaining an image of a body part using X-ray technology without the use of tomographic (cross-sectional) methods. It is commonly employed in the Imaging section to visualize internal structures for diagnostic purposes.

This root operation specifically targets the Urinary System, encompassing various anatomical sites such as the Bladder, Kidneys (right, left, or bilateral), Ureters, Urethra, and the Ileal Diversion Loop. Codes differentiate by which body part is imaged and the type of contrast used, including High Osmolar Contrast, Low Osmolar Contrast, or Other Contrast, or no contrast at all. For example, BT000ZZ represents plain radiography of the bladder using high osmolar contrast, while BT01ZZZ codes for plain radiography of the right kidney without contrast. This level of detail ensures accurate coding of urinary system imaging procedures, supporting precise medical record documentation and billing.
