ICD-10-PCS CF2 Nuclear Medicine: Hepatobiliary System and Pancreas Tomographic (Tomo) Nuclear Medicine Imaging

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Tomographic (Tomo) Nuclear Medicine Imaging (code CF2) involves creating detailed, cross-sectional images of specific body organs using nuclear medicine techniques. This procedure focuses on the Hepatobiliary System and Pancreas within the Nuclear Medicine classification.

This operation utilizes radioactive tracers to visualize the functional status of organs such as the Gallbladder, Liver, and Spleen. For example, codes like CF241ZZ describe tomographic imaging of the gallbladder using Technetium 99m (Tc-99m), while CF24YZZ indicates the use of other radionuclides for the same purpose. Similarly, liver imaging is specified by codes CF251ZZ and CF25YZZ, depending on the radionuclide used. Combined liver and spleen imaging is represented by codes such as CF261ZZ and CF26YZZ. This specificity ensures precise documentation in nuclear medicine procedures targeting the hepatobiliary system for diagnostic evaluation through tomographic techniques.

List of ICD-10-PCS codes used to specify CF2 - Tomographic (Tomo) Nuclear Medicine Imaging (introduction of radioactive materials into the body for three dimensional display of images developed from the capture of radioactive emissions). There are a total of 8 procedure codes in this section.
