ICD-10-PCS D91 Radiation Therapy: Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat Brachytherapy
Brachytherapy in ICD-10-PCS refers to the targeted delivery of radiation therapy by placing radioactive sources directly inside or near the affected tissue. It is classified under the Radiation Therapy section and is coded as D91 and related variations.
This root operation specifically treats conditions in the Ear, Nose, Mouth, and Throat areas using different isotopes and dose rates. The provided codes show detailed distinctions based on the anatomical site (e.g., Ear, Nose, Hypopharynx, Mouth, Tongue, Larynx), the isotope used (such as Cesium 137, Iridium 192, Iodine 125, Palladium 103, and others), and whether therapy is delivered at a High Dose Rate (HDR) or Low Dose Rate (LDR). For example, code D91097Z represents HDR brachytherapy of the ear using Cesium 137, while D911B7Z indicates LDR brachytherapy of the nose using Cesium 137. These distinctions allow precise documentation of the brachytherapy procedure, ensuring accuracy in treatment reporting and coding.
List of ICD-10-PCS codes used to specify D91 - 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 169 procedure codes in this section.
