ICD-10-PCS DD2 Radiation Therapy: Gastrointestinal System Stereotactic Radiosurgery

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Stereotactic Radiosurgery (Code DD2) involves the precise delivery of radiation therapy to a targeted body part using a stereotactic technique. This highly focused treatment is designed to destroy diseased tissue, commonly tumors, while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue.

Within the Radiation Therapy classification, stereotactic radiosurgery is applied to various parts of the Gastrointestinal System. The codes illustrate treatments on specific sites such as the Esophagus (DD20DZZ, DD20HZZ, DD20JZZ), Stomach, Duodenum, Jejunum, Ileum, Colon, and Rectum. Each code specifies the type of radiation used, like Other Photon, Particulate, or Gamma Beam radiosurgery. These distinctions are important for accurate coding and reflect the method of radiation delivery in stereotactic radiosurgery procedures targeting gastrointestinal malignancies or lesions.

List of ICD-10-PCS codes used to specify DD2 - Stereotactic Radiosurgery (a type of external radiation therapy that uses special equipment to position the patient and precisely give a single large dose of radiation to a tumor). There are a total of 22 procedure codes in this section.
