Computer-Aided Triage and Notification Pulmonary Artery Flow

A new code has been created at Section X code Table XXE Measurement of Physiological Systems as shown below. The code will identify software analysis of computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) with computer-aided triage and notification software to detect pulmonary embolism (PE). Facilities can report the CTPA using the appropriate code(s) in Section B, Imaging. Body Part Approach Device/Substance /Technology Qualifier 3 Arterial X External 2 Pulmonary Artery Flow, Computer-aided Triage and Notification New Technology Group 7 Aidoc Briefcase for PE is an artificial intelligence-based solution for triage and notification of suspected PE cases used to shorten the period...

Article Overview

This article explains a newly created ICD-10-PCS code in the measurement section for software analysis tied to computed tomography pulmonary angiography and computer-aided triage/notification for suspected pulmonary embolism. It is relevant to inpatient coders, CDI professionals, radiology teams, and compliance staff who need to understand the scope of the new technology classification and how it relates to reporting the imaging service itself.

Why This Topic Matters

New technology codes can affect how facilities capture emerging software-based diagnostic support within procedure reporting. Understanding the article helps readers recognize the code category, the clinical use case, and the relationship between the technology code and the underlying imaging procedure.
