ICD-10-PCS CP2 Nuclear Medicine: Musculoskeletal System Tomographic (Tomo) Nuclear Medicine Imaging

The ICD-10-PCS root operation CP2 – Tomographic (Tomo) Nuclear Medicine Imaging involves creating detailed, layered images of the musculoskeletal system using nuclear medicine techniques. This imaging captures functional information by detecting radionuclides within specific body parts.

Within the Nuclear Medicine classification, tomographic imaging is applied to various musculoskeletal sites, including the skull, cervical, thoracic, lumbar, and thoracolumbar spine, as well as the pelvis and upper and lower extremities. The imaging can utilize different radionuclides such as Technetium 99m (Tc-99m) or other radionuclides, enhancing diagnostic specificity. For example, code CP211ZZ refers to tomographic nuclear medicine imaging of the skull using Tc-99m, while CP2CYZZ denotes this imaging for the right lower extremity using another radionuclide. These ICD-10-PCS tomographic nuclear medicine imaging codes provide precise documentation to support both diagnostic assessment and treatment planning for musculoskeletal conditions.
