ICD-10-PCS Code For Adrenal Glands Bilateral: Procedure Code Group Overview
The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) code group CG14 includes procedures performed to introduce radioactive materials for planar nuclear medicine imaging of the adrenal glands, bilateral. These ICD-10-PCS codes are used for inpatient documentation when single plane nuclear imaging of adrenal gland anatomy or function is performed using radiopharmaceutical administration. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-PCS CG14 group is essential for proper inpatient reimbursement, as it captures the specific imaging procedure performed and supports clinical documentation accuracy.

Adrenal Glands Planar Nuclear Medicine Imaging Procedure Overview
This group includes planar nuclear medicine imaging procedures that target the bilateral adrenal glands within the endocrine system. These procedures involve introduction of radioactive materials and capture of emitted radiation to create single plane images of adrenal anatomy and function. Accurate ICD-10-PCS coding identifies the imaging technique and body part, which supports appropriate inpatient reimbursement and clinical documentation.
