BV080ZZPlain Radiography of Vasa Vasorum using High Osmolar Contrast

BV080ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a plain radiography procedure on the vasa vasorum 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 contrast vasogram, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (87.94).

For a different body part, codes include BV000ZZ (corpora cavernosa), BV010ZZ (right epididymis), BV020ZZ (left epididymis), BV030ZZ (prostate), BV050ZZ (right testicle) and BV060ZZ (left testicle).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded BV081ZZ (low osmolar) and BV08YZZ (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.
