CB1YYZZPlanar Nuclear Medicine Imaging of Respiratory System using Other Radionuclide

CB1YYZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a planar nuclear medicine imaging procedure on the respiratory 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 pulmonary scan, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (92.15).

For a different body part, codes include CB12YZZ (lungs and bronchi).

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.
