The ICD code R481 is used to code Agnosia

Agnosia is the inability to process sensory information. Often there is a loss of ability to recognize objects, persons, sounds, shapes, or smells while the specific sense is not defective nor is there any significant memory loss. It is usually associated with brain injury or neurological illness, particularly after damage to the occipitotemporal border, which is part of the ventral stream. Agnosia only affects a single modality, such as vision or hearing.

Specialty: Neurology
MeSH Code: D000377
ICD 9 Code: 784.69

Agnosia causes the victims to lose the ability to recognize or comprehend the meaning of objects even with intact senses.
