In plain language
X10 shows one small X-ray image and its assessment.
This code applies per small X-ray image. If X10 appears twice on an overview, it refers to two separate images — not one unclear total.
What does the line mean?
- Taking and assessing one small X-ray image.
- The quantity on an invoice shows how many small images were registered.
What does it not state by itself?
- An X10 line names the image; it does not by itself describe a conclusion or next treatment.
- An image and a treatment are separate parts of an overview and can therefore appear as separate lines.
Useful when reading an invoice
- Compare the number of X10 lines with the images mentioned in the conversation or plan.
- If an overview is unclear, ask the practice to show the image and its context next to each other.
