The CPT code is 32484.
You should first go to the section removal and then look for lung. After that, you should check the code for "single segment" as only one lung segment was resected. The CPT codes are yearly reviewed, so there is a chance that this code might not correspond to the latest version, although it is not likely. These codes are always five digits long and the system was developed by the American Medical Association.<span>

</span>The ICD-10-CM code is C34.10.
Firstly select the Neoplasms (section C00-D49) because it is lung cancer, then look for "Malignant neoplasms of respiratory and intrathoracic organs" as we are talking about the lung (section C30-C39). After this go to "Malignant neoplasm of bronchus and lung" (C34) which is the specification. Now you should select the type it is referring to, and we are looking for cancer in the lungs on the apical area from where the biopsy was done, with no specification of which lung - so, the right option should be "<span>Malignant neoplasm of upper lobe, unspecified bronchus or lung" (C34.10).</span>

Answer:

32484 (CTP) and C34.10. (ICD-10-CM)

Explanation:

Both CTP and ICD-10-CM are sets of codes used by healthcare professionals in the hospital setting. These codes are very useful for doctors, nurses and any other medical professional, because they reference all diseases, surgeries, procedures, applications and any other photor performed in the medical environment. These codes allow communication between professionals to be done faster and more universally, so professionals in any region of the world can understand what is happening to a patient.

In the case shown in the question above, the codes used would be 32484 in CTP and C34.10 in ICD-10-CM.

PLEASE HELP! (c) Complete the table to represent the relationship between volume and surface area of a spherical structure surro
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer/Explanation:

Recall:

Volume of a sphere = ⁴/3πr³

Surface Area = 4πr²

✔️For radius (r) = 1 mm:

Volume = ⁴/3 × π × 1³ = 4.19 mm³

Surface Area = 4 × π × 1² = 12.57 mm²

Ratio of volume to surface area = 4.19 : 12.57 = 1:3

✔️For radius (r) = 3 mm:

Volume = ⁴/3 × π × 3³ = 113.1 mm³

Surface Area = 4 × π × 3² = 113.1 mm²

Ratio of volume to surface area = 113.1 : 113.1 = 1:1

Porque un grupo de celulas pequeñas ayudarian a un organismo a mantener la homeostasis mejor que una celula grande?
NeX [460]

Answer:  

Una parte fundamental de la homeostasis es la transferencia y la ingesta de moléculas (sea necesario o no). Es importante que la célula pueda llevar los nutrientes necesarios inmediatamente donde los necesita y poder deshacerse de los subproductos dañinos del proceso celular. Es igualmente importante poder regular la concentración de agua. Las células más pequeñas tienen una superficie más grande en relación con su volumen (su superficie se escala con R ^ 2 mientras que su volumen con R ^ 3 donde R es el radio de una célula) y, por lo tanto, los intercambios a lo largo de la membrana celular se ven favorecidos en comparación con las células más grandes que necesitan muchos intercambios pero tienen proporcionalmente menos área de membranas. Si bien A no es necesariamente cierto, C es definitivamente cierto y, por lo tanto, la respuesta correcta.

What happens in the process of transcription
dolphi86 [110]
During the process of transcription, a portion of a DNA molecule is used to create a mRNA Molecule. DNA stores genetic information in the nucleus of your cells. When RNA molecules are produced it happens inside the nucleus. The RNA molecule can then leave the nucleus and travel to ribosomes which are located in the cytoplasm and attached to endoplasmic reticulum. The RNA will be used to create proteins molecules.
