About CW3NYZZ

CW3NYZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a positron emission tomographic (PET) imaging procedure on the whole body using an other radionuclide approach with none (qualifier: none). In ICD-10-PCS, positron emission tomographic (PET) imaging means introduction of radioactive materials into the body for three dimensional display of images developed from the simultaneous capture, 180 degrees apart, of radioactive emissions.

In plain terms, this corresponds to total body scan, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (92.18).

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.
