About ICD-9-CM 92.12
92.12 is an ICD-9-CM procedure code for scan of other sites of head. 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 7 ICD-10-PCS codes, such as C015DZZ (Planar Nuclear Medicine Imaging of Cerebrospinal Fluid using Indium 111 (In-111)), C015YZZ (Planar Nuclear Medicine Imaging of Cerebrospinal Fluid using Other Radionuclide) and C01YYZZ (Planar Nuclear Medicine Imaging of Central Nervous System using Other Radionuclide). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
