ICD-10-PCS DHY Radiation Therapy: Skin Other Radiation

The ICD-10-PCS root operation Other Radiation (DHY) under the Radiation Therapy classification involves therapeutic application of radiation techniques that do not fall under standard categories like external beam or radioactive implants. It specifically targets the skin of various body regions using different radiation modalities.

This operation includes procedures such as Contact Radiation, Hyperthermia, and Plaque Radiation applied to skin on the face, neck, arm, chest, back, abdomen, buttock, leg, hand, and foot. For example, codes like DHY27ZZ represent contact radiation of the face skin, while DHY38ZZ denotes hyperthermia treatment of neck skin. Plaque radiation, a form of localized exposure using radioactive plaques, is coded such as DHY4FZZ for the arm skin or DHY9FZZ for the buttock skin. These detailed codes help capture the precise type and location of radiation therapy applied to skin, ensuring accurate documentation in radiation oncology and therapeutic radiology.
