Elbow, Right Magnetic Resonance Imaging Procedure Overview
This procedure group includes magnetic resonance imaging of the right elbow, targeting the non-axial upper bones and surrounding soft tissues. Procedures in this group capture multiplanar images developed from radiofrequency signals emitted by nuclei within a magnetic field to evaluate anatomy and pathology of the right elbow. Accurate ICD-10-PCS coding of these imaging procedures matters for inpatient reimbursement because it documents the specific body part and imaging modality used and supports appropriate case mix assignment.
