Positron Emission Tomographic (PET) Imaging of Brain using Fluorine 18 (F-18)
ValidICD-10-PCS procedure code.
Valid for claims with a date of service in the current code year.
What has happened to this code
Every change the publisher made, from 2014 to now. Entries marked draft are from the pre-implementation releases: ICD-10 took effect on 1 October 2015, so nothing before FY2016 was ever valid on a claim.
