Understanding ICD-10-PCS Table DW0 (Beam Radiation of Anatomical Regions)

The ICD-10-PCS (Procedure Coding System) is utilized in U.S. healthcare settings for reporting inpatient hospital procedures. Table DW0 belongs to the Radiation Therapy section, specifically addressing procedures within the Anatomical Regions body system, and focuses on the root operation of Beam Radiation.

A complete 7-character ICD-10-PCS code from this table is constructed as follows:

  • Character 1 (Section): D - Radiation Therapy
  • Character 2 (Body System): W - Anatomical Regions
  • Character 3 (Root Operation): 0 - Beam Radiation
  • Character 4 (Character 4): Specifies the exact body part involved in the beam radiation.
  • Character 5 (Character 5): Defines the technique (e.g., Open, Percutaneous) used to reach the procedure site.
  • Character 6 (Character 6): Indicates if a device was used during the beam radiation and its type.
  • Character 7 (Character 7): Provides additional specific information or clarifies the procedure.

Accurate assignment of each character based on the operative report and the detailed definitions within the ICD-10-PCS system is essential for correct coding. This page lists all valid options and combinations for table DW0 according to the 2025 ICD-10-PCS guidelines.
