About ICD-9-CM 87.09
87.09 is an ICD-9-CM procedure code for other soft tissue x-ray of face, head, and neck. ICD-9-CM was retired for U.S. claims on October 1, 2015, when ICD-10-PCS took over.
The CMS General Equivalence Mappings translate it to 38 ICD-10-PCS codes, such as B9040ZZ (Plain Radiography of Right Parotid Gland using High Osmolar Contrast), B9041ZZ (Plain Radiography of Right Parotid Gland using Low Osmolar Contrast) and B904YZZ (Plain Radiography of Right Parotid Gland using Other Contrast). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
