The ICD-10-CM code R91.8 might also be used to specify conditions or terms like abnormal findings on diagnostic imaging of lung, bilateral lung opacities on chest x-ray, bronchography abnormal, bronchoscopy abnormal, endoscopy abnormal, hilar mass, etc.
ICD-10 code R91. 1 for Solitary pulmonary nodule is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
For example, lung mass and multiple lung nodules are specifically indexed to code R91. 8, Other nonspecific abnormal finding of lung field.
A single lung lesion that is characterized by a small round mass of tissue, usually less than 1 cm in diameter, and can be detected by chest radiography. A solitary pulmonary nodule can be associated with neoplasm, tuberculosis, cyst, or other anomalies in the lung, the chest wall, or the pleura.
Solitary pulmonary noduleicd10 - R911: Solitary pulmonary nodule.
Multiple lung nodules mean that you have two or more lesions in your lungs. Multiple lung nodules are also called pulmonary nodules. These lesions can be seen on an imaging scan like an X-ray. You may not have any symptoms of multiple lung nodules.
A solitary pulmonary nodule is a round or oval spot (lesion) in the lung that is seen with a chest x-ray or CT scan. This CT scan shows a single lesion (pulmonary nodule) in the right lung.
A CT scan usually isn't enough to tell whether a lung nodule is a benign tumor or a cancerous lump. A biopsy is the only way to confirm a lung cancer diagnosis. But the nodule's characteristics as seen on a CT scan may offer clues.
The most common causes of lung nodules are inflamed tissue due to an infection or inflammation (called granulomas) or benign lung tumors (such as hamartomas). Less common, malignant lung nodules are typically caused by lung cancer or other cancers that have spread to the lungs (metastatic cancer).
ICD-10 code J98. 11 for Atelectasis is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the respiratory system .

E04. 1 - Nontoxic single thyroid nodule | ICD-10-CM.
A nodule is a growth of abnormal tissue. Nodules can develop just below the skin. They can also develop in deeper skin tissues or internal organs. Dermatologists use nodules as a general term to describe any lump underneath the skin that's at least 1 centimeter in size.
Group 1CodeDescriptionR91.1Solitary pulmonary nodule
Right upper lobe cavitary lung lesion. A lung cavity is defined radiographically as a lucent area contained within a consolidation, mass, or nodule. 1. Cavities usually are accompanied by thick walls, greater than 4 mm.
ICD-10-CM Code for Abnormal weight loss R63. 4.
Solitary nodule of lung. Clinical Information. A lung lesion that appears as a round coin-shaped shadow in the chest radiographs. A single lung lesion that is characterized by a small round mass of tissue, usually less than 1 cm in diameter, and can be detected by chest radiography.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM R91.1 became effective on October 1, 2021.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM J98.4 became effective on October 1, 2021.
A non-neoplastic or neoplastic condition affecting the lung. Representative examples of non-neoplastic conditions include chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and pneumonia. Representative examples of neoplastic conditions include benign processes (e.g., respiratory papilloma) and malignant processes (e.g., lung carcinoma and metastatic cancer to the lung).
A type 1 excludes note is a pure excludes. It means "not coded here". A type 1 excludes note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as J98.4. A type 1 excludes note is for used for when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition.
A primary malignant neoplasm that overlaps two or more contiguous (next to each other) sites should be classified to the subcategory/code .8 ('overlapping lesion'), unless the combination is specifically indexed elsewhere.
