ICD-10-PCS DD1 Radiation Therapy: Gastrointestinal System Brachytherapy

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Brachytherapy (DD1) refers to delivering radiation therapy internally by placing a radioactive source directly into or near a target area. This operation is categorized under the Radiation Therapy section and is used primarily for treating cancers within specific body systems.

This root operation is applied in brachytherapy of various parts of the Gastrointestinal System, including the Esophagus, Stomach, Duodenum, Jejunum, Ileum, Colon, and Rectum. The ICD-10-PCS codes capture details such as the dose rate—either High Dose Rate (HDR) or Low Dose Rate (LDR)—and the radioactive isotope used, for example, Cesium 137 (Cs-137), Iridium 192 (Ir-192), Iodine 125 (I-125), and others. For instance, code DD1097Z indicates HDR brachytherapy of the esophagus using Cesium 137, while DD11B9Z denotes LDR brachytherapy of the stomach with Iodine 125. These coded variations enable precise documentation of the braid therapy specifics for gastrointestinal cancers and treatments.
