ICD-10-PCS DVY Radiation Therapy: Male Reproductive System Other Radiation
The ICD-10-PCS root operation Other Radiation (code DVY) refers to radiation therapy techniques that are distinct from standard beam radiation. This operation falls under the Radiation Therapy section and focuses on specialized methods of delivering therapeutic radiation.
Within the Male Reproductive System, Other Radiation includes procedures such as Contact Radiation, Hyperthermia, Intraoperative Radiation Therapy (IORT), and Plaque Radiation. Examples from the provided codes are contact radiation of the Prostate (DVY07ZZ
) and hyperthermia treatment of the Testis (DVY18ZZ
). These approaches enable targeted radiation delivery directly to affected tissues, often during surgery or via implants, enhancing treatment precision. Proper use of these ICD-10-PCS other radiation codes ensures accurate documentation of complex therapies in male reproductive cancers or other conditions requiring specialized radiation modalities.
