ICD-10-PCS Code For Pelvis: Procedure Code Group Overview
The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) code group BR3C includes procedures performed to image structures in the pelvis using magnetic resonance imaging. These ICD-10-PCS codes are used for inpatient documentation when a clinician orders an MRI of the pelvis to evaluate bones, joints, or related soft tissues for diagnosis or treatment planning. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-PCS BR3C group is essential for proper inpatient reimbursement, as it captures the imaging procedure performed and supports clinical documentation accuracy.

Pelvis Magnetic Resonance Imaging Procedure Overview
This procedure group includes magnetic resonance imaging studies performed on the pelvis, targeting structures of the axial skeleton, except skull and facial bones. These procedures capture radiofrequency signals from nuclei in pelvic tissues excited within a magnetic field and use computer reformatting to produce multiplanar digital images. Accurate ICD-10-PCS coding of these inpatient magnetic resonance imaging procedures ensures the clinical study performed is reflected in the medical record and supports correct inpatient reimbursement.
