C71YYZZPlanar Nuclear Medicine Imaging of Lymphatic and Hematologic System using Other Radionuclide

C71YYZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a planar nuclear medicine imaging procedure on the lymphatic and hematologic system using an other radionuclide approach with none (qualifier: none). In ICD-10-PCS, planar nuclear medicine imaging means introduction of radioactive materials into the body for single plane display of images developed from the capture of radioactive emissions.

In plain terms, this corresponds to scan of lymphatic system, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (92.16).

For a different body part, codes include C710YZZ (bone marrow), C712YZZ (spleen), C713YZZ (blood), C715YZZ (lymphatics, head and neck), C71DYZZ (lymphatics, pelvic), C71JYZZ (lymphatics, head) and 5 more.

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.
