UNSPSC 85873139: Computerized tomography (ct scan) of bilateral pelvic (iliac) veins using high osmolar contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to computerized tomography (ct scan) of bilateral pelvic (iliac) veins using high osmolar contrast. This intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code B52H0ZZ

UNSPSC 85873139 Computerized tomography (ct scan) of bilateral pelvic (iliac) veins using high osmolar contrast is a Commodity code that nominally names a specific diagnostic imaging procedure, but recent state and local opportunities show little alignment with this narrow scope. The three most recent opportunities posted under this code span diagnostic imaging systems procurement (a Picture Archiving and Communication System at a county hospital), special education contracted services for a school district, and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories at a county health system. Only the first opportunity—San Mateo Medical Center's PACS solicitation—bears a direct relationship to imaging infrastructure; the other two do not involve ct scans, pelvic imaging, or contrast agents. The code exhibits minimal relevant recent activity in state and local procurement.

San Mateo Medical Center (SMMC), a county public hospital and clinic operator in California, posted an RFP on October 7, 2026, for enterprise-grade PACS implementation supporting radiology, cardiology, and dental imaging, with proposals due October 21, 2026. The County of Santa Clara Health System issued a non-exclusive multiple-award RFQ on July 7, 2026, for temporary health professional staffing in ancillary categories including Diagnostic Imaging/Radiology, with proposals due October 7, 2026. Neither opportunity directly procures ct scans or imaging procedures as discrete goods or services; instead, they address imaging system infrastructure and staffing. Birdville Independent School District in Texas solicited special education contracted services—a posting plainly unrelated to the code's nominal scope. The geographic spread reflected in these opportunities includes California and Texas, but the mismatch between the code's stated commodity (a specific imaging procedure with contrast medium) and actual buying activity suggests this code either sees sparse genuine procurement matching its definition or carries tagging errors in the system.
