ICD-10-PCS DF0 Radiation Therapy: Hepatobiliary System and Pancreas Beam Radiation
The ICD-10-PCS root operation Beam Radiation (code DF0) describes the targeted delivery of radiation using a beam to treat diseases in specific body systems. This operation is classified under Radiation Therapy and involves applying various types and energies of radiation to destroy or control malignant or abnormal tissue.
Within this classification, beam radiation is used on the Hepatobiliary System and Pancreas, including key organs such as the Liver, Gallbladder, Bile Ducts, and Pancreas. The provided codes specify the radiation type and method; for example, DF000ZZ indicates beam radiation of the liver using photons with energy less than 1 MeV, while DF003Z0 denotes electron beam radiation of the liver performed intraoperatively. Other techniques involve heavy particles like protons or ions (DF004ZZ), neutrons (DF005ZZ), and neutron capture (DF006ZZ). Variations in radiation type and energy level allow precise coding of the treatment technique, essential for accurate documentation and clinical care.
List of ICD-10-PCS codes used to specify DF0 - Beam Radiation (a type of radiation therapy that uses a machine to aim high-energy rays at the cancer from outside of the body). There are a total of 33 procedure codes in this section.
