B7070ZZPlain Radiography of Bilateral Upper Extremity Lymphatics using High Osmolar Contrast

B7070ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a plain radiography procedure on the bilateral upper extremity lymphatics using a high osmolar approach with none (qualifier: none). In ICD-10-PCS, plain radiography means planar display of an image developed from the capture of external ionizing radiation on photographic or photoconductive plate.

In plain terms, this corresponds to lymphangiogram of upper limb, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (88.34).

For a different body part, codes include B7000ZZ (abdominal/retroperitoneal lymphatics, unilateral), B7010ZZ (bilateral abdominal/retroperitoneal lymphatics), B7040ZZ (lymphatics, head and neck), B7050ZZ (right upper extremity lymphatics), B7060ZZ (left upper extremity lymphatics), B7080ZZ (right lower extremity lymphatics) and 3 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded B7071ZZ (low osmolar) and B707YZZ (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.
