Deprecated Lung NM ventilation and perfusion W radionuclide IH and W particulate radionuclide IV 39943-6
LOINC Code
| LOINC code | 39943-6 | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| name | Deprecated Lung NM ventilation and perfusion W radionuclide IH and W particulate radionuclide IV | ||||
| status | DEPRECATED | ||||
| status reason | Duplicate - As of 2011, the ACR does not recommend specifying "particulate" as a distinct study, which is reflected by the current CPT codes for lung perfusion and ventilation studies. When "particulate" is removed from this term, it becomes a duplicate of 39942-8. | ||||

| change reason | The scale has been changed from "Nar" to "Doc" to fit with the CDA model. Changed to align with the HL7 routes of administration.; Method of "Radnuc" was changed to "NM". The LOINC/RadLex Committee agreed to use a subset of the two-letter DICOM modality codes as the primary modality identifier. | ||||
