About B52SZZZ

B52SZZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a computerized tomography (CT scan) procedure on the bilateral pulmonary veins using a none 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 other computerized axial tomography, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (88.38).

For a different body part, codes include B522ZZZ (intracranial sinuses), B528ZZZ (superior vena cava), B529ZZZ (inferior vena cava), B52FZZZ (right pelvic (iliac) veins), B52GZZZ (left pelvic (iliac) veins), B52HZZZ (bilateral pelvic (iliac) veins) and 6 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded B52S0ZZ (high osmolar), B52S1ZZ (low osmolar) and B52SYZZ (other contrast).

With a different device, use B52SZ2Z (intravascular optical coherence).

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.
