ICD-10-PCS BU4 Imaging: Female Reproductive System Ultrasonography

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Ultrasonography (Code BU4) refers to using ultrasound imaging technology to visualize internal structures within the body. Classified under Imaging, this operation captures real-time images without invasion or radiation.

Ultrasonography is commonly applied to the Female Reproductive System to examine organs such as the Fallopian Tubes, Ovaries, and Uterus. For instance, codes like BU40ZZZ and BU41ZZZ represent ultrasound imaging of the right and left fallopian tubes, respectively, while BU43ZZZ and BU44ZZZ indicate imaging of the right and left ovaries. Some codes, such as BU4CZZZ, allow for combined imaging of the uterus and ovaries. Additionally, contrast-enhanced ultrasonography is documented by codes ending in YZZ, e.g., BU40YZZ for the right fallopian tube using other contrast. These specific codes enable precise documentation of ultrasound procedures critical for diagnostic evaluation of female reproductive health.

List of ICD-10-PCS codes used to specify BU4 - 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.
