UNSPSC 42204011: Medical radiological dose calibrator shields

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as shield or container dose calibrator for radioisotopes used during medical radiological procedures in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901819.

UNSPSC 42204011 Medical radiological dose calibrator shields is a Commodity code covering shielding equipment used to protect personnel and contain radiation during the calibration of radioactive dosing instruments in medical settings. State and local governments procure these shields primarily through hospital systems, health departments, and specialized medical facilities that operate nuclear medicine programs or radiation oncology departments. The shields are typically lead-lined or equivalent high-density materials engineered to attenuate gamma radiation and x-rays, and solicitations reflect purchases of both standalone shield units and integrated shielding solutions for dose calibrator workstations.

The recent-opportunities block provided contains no posted solicitations under this code. Without documented state or local procurement activity in the source material, no geographic spread, issuing-body concentration, or representative opportunities can be characterized. This silence does not indicate the code is inactive across all jurisdictions — hospitals and health systems nationwide operate dose calibrators — but rather suggests the code sees limited recent visibility in publicly posted state and local RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB activity, or that opportunities under this code are being tagged differently by issuing bodies.
