    73130-26, S62.323A, W50.0XXA, Y93.61

    Explanation:

    The cpt® and icd-10-cm codes are extremely important in the hospital environment around the planet. This is because both allow the codification of diseases, treatments, medical interventions, tests, surgeries, procedures and any other factor used for the full treatment of a patient. In this way, these codes allow a quick communication between the members of the local medical team and a quick storage of the patient's medical information, as well as allowing international language among health professionals anywhere on the planet.

    In relation to the question above, the codes to be used are: 73130-26, S62.323A, W50.0XXA, Y93.61

    Radiology coding CPT for hand 3 views is 73130 and ICD-10-CM diagnosis code is S62.322A.

    The lateral hand view is an orthogonal view, PA (demonstrates the metacarpals, phalanges, radius and ulna in the natural anatomical position) and oblique views are parts of the standard projections.
