About B236ZZZ

B236ZZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) procedure on the heart, right and left using a none approach with none (qualifier: none). In ICD-10-PCS, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) means computer reformatted digital display of multiplanar images developed from the capture of radiofrequency signals emitted by nuclei in a body site excited within a magnetic field.

In plain terms, this corresponds to magnetic resonance imaging of chest and myocardium, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (88.92).

For a different body part, codes include B231ZZZ (coronary arteries, multiple) and B233ZZZ (coronary artery bypass grafts, multiple).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded B236YZZ (other contrast).

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.
