B310Y10Fluoroscopy of Thoracic Aorta using Other Contrast, Laser Intraoperative

B310Y10 is the ICD-10-PCS code for a fluoroscopy procedure on the thoracic aorta using an other contrast approach with laser (qualifier: intraoperative). In ICD-10-PCS, fluoroscopy means single plane or bi-plane real time display of an image developed from the capture of external ionizing radiation on a fluorescent screen. The image may also be stored by either digital or analog means.

In plain terms, this corresponds to non-coronary intra-operative fluorescence vascular angiography [IFVA], the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (17.71).

For a different body part, codes include B311Y10 (right brachiocephalic-subclavian artery), B312Y10 (left subclavian artery), B313Y10 (right common carotid artery), B314Y10 (left common carotid artery), B315Y10 (bilateral common carotid arteries), B316Y10 (right internal carotid artery) and 20 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded B310010 (high osmolar) and B310110 (low osmolar).

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.
