ICD-10-PCS D01 Radiation Therapy: Central and Peripheral Nervous System Brachytherapy

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Brachytherapy (code D01) involves the targeted delivery of radioactive material directly to the Central and Peripheral Nervous System to treat disease. This form of radiation therapy is classified within the Radiation Therapy section and focuses on precise, localized treatment.

The brachytherapy codes illustrate various applications including treatment of the Brain, Brain Stem, Spinal Cord, and Peripheral Nerve using different radioactive isotopes. For example, High Dose Rate (HDR) Brachytherapy of the brain can use isotopes like Cesium 137 (Cs-137) (code D01097Z) or Iridium 192 (Ir-192) (code D01098Z). Similarly, Low Dose Rate (LDR) Brachytherapy options include use of Palladium 103 (Pd-103) (code D010BBZ) with a unidirectional source as in code D010BB1. Each code specifies the dose rate, target nervous system part, and isotope, allowing detailed documentation of this precise radiation treatment method.

List of ICD-10-PCS codes used to specify D01 - Brachytherapy (a type of radiation therapy in which radioactive material sealed in needles, seeds, wires, or catheters is placed directly into or near a tumor). There are a total of 57 procedure codes in this section.
