About B02BYZZ

B02BYZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a computerized tomography (CT scan) procedure on the spinal cord using an other contrast approach with none (qualifier: none). In ICD-10-PCS, computerized tomography (CT scan) means computer reformatted digital display of multiplanar images developed from the capture of multiple exposures of external ionizing radiation.

In plain terms, this corresponds to computerized axial tomography of head, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (87.03).

For a different body part, codes include B020YZZ (brain), B027YZZ (cisterna), B028YZZ (cerebral ventricle(s)) and B029YZZ (sella turcica/pituitary gland).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded B02B0ZZ (high osmolar), B02B1ZZ (low osmolar) and B02BZZZ (none).

With a different device, use B02BY0Z (unenhanced and enhanced).

It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
