C81YYZZPlanar Nuclear Medicine Imaging of Eye using Other Radionuclide

C81YYZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a planar nuclear medicine imaging procedure on the eye 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 P32 and other tracer studies of eye, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (95.16).

For a different body part, codes include C819YZZ (bilateral lacrimal ducts).

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.
