ICD-10-PCS Code For Testicles Bilateral: Procedure Code Group Overview
The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) code group CV19 includes procedures performed to image the bilateral testicles using introduced radioactive materials for planar capture of emissions. These ICD-10-PCS codes are used for inpatient documentation when a planar nuclear medicine imaging study of both testicles is performed to evaluate blood flow, function, or focal lesions. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-PCS CV19 group is essential for proper inpatient reimbursement, as it captures the specific procedure performed and supports clinical documentation accuracy.

Testicles, Bilateral Planar Nuclear Medicine Imaging Procedure Overview
This procedure group includes planar nuclear medicine imaging studies of the bilateral testicles that use introduced radioactive materials to capture emissions for single-plane image display. These studies target the male reproductive system and typically assess perfusion, function, or pathology of both testicles. Accurate ICD-10-PCS coding of these procedures ensures correct inpatient documentation and supports appropriate case mix assignment and reimbursement.
