BV031ZZPlain Radiography of Prostate using Low Osmolar Contrast

BV031ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a plain radiography procedure on the prostate using a low 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 other x-ray of prostate and seminal vesicles, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (87.92).

For a different body part, codes include BV001ZZ (corpora cavernosa), BV011ZZ (right epididymis), BV021ZZ (left epididymis), BV051ZZ (right testicle), BV061ZZ (left testicle) and BV081ZZ (vasa vasorum).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded BV030ZZ (high osmolar) and BV03YZZ (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.
