UNSPSC 42296607: Stereotactic biopsy systems

In this classification, this commodity indicates a system consisting of products, consumables and accessories that are used to execute a stereotactic biopsy procedure in a medical setting. US FDA regulates Stereotactic biopsy systems under 21 CFR 892.1710 and under FDA product code IZH. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901890.

UNSPSC 42296607 Stereotactic biopsy systems, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. The code's name refers to surgical imaging and biopsy equipment, yet the five recent state and local opportunities tagged to it span laser equipment and technical support for operating rooms, surgical power instruments, outpatient building furniture, law enforcement equipment, and phlebotomy services — none of which represent stereotactic biopsy systems or closely related diagnostic imaging equipment. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in how these opportunities were tagged or that the code has become a catch-all placeholder for diverse surgical and clinical equipment procurements that lack a more precise classification. State and local buyers appear to be tagging general surgical and healthcare facility equipment under this code without regard to its actual definition.

The issuing bodies include San Mateo County Medical Center (appearing twice, for laser equipment and surgical power instruments), the State of California (two furniture RFBs for an outpatient building), Sourcewell on behalf of participating Washington counties and other multi-jurisdictional entities, and the State of Nevada Department of Public Safety. Geographic spread is limited to California, Nevada, Washington, and Minnesota. Representative recent opportunities include San Mateo County Medical Center's RFP for laser equipment and operating room technical support with a June 10, 2026 due date, and the State of California's RFB for outpatient building furniture with a June 4, 2026 deadline. Absent solicitations specifically seeking stereotactic biopsy systems or comparable diagnostic imaging equipment, this code does not signal active procurement demand for its stated commodity. Vendors focused on diagnostic imaging or biopsy equipment should verify whether their product category maps to a more precise UNSPSC classification before investing pursuit effort under this code.
