C75P1ZZNonimaging Nuclear Medicine Probe of Lower Extremity Lymphatics using Technetium 99m (Tc-99m)

C75P1ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a nonimaging nuclear medicine probe procedure on the lymphatics, lower extremity using a technetium 99m (tc-99m) approach with none (qualifier: none). In ICD-10-PCS, nonimaging nuclear medicine probe means introduction of radioactive materials into the body for the study of distribution and fate of certain substances by the detection of radioactive emissions; or, alternatively, measurement of absorption of radioactive emissions from an external source.

In plain terms, this corresponds to other radioisotope function studies, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (92.09).

For a different body part, codes include C7551ZZ (lymphatics, head and neck), C75D1ZZ (lymphatics, pelvic), C75J1ZZ (lymphatics, head), C75K1ZZ (lymphatics, neck), C75L1ZZ (lymphatics, upper chest), C75M1ZZ (lymphatics, trunk) and 1 more.

The same procedure with a different approach is coded C75PYZZ (other radionuclide).

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.
