UNSPSC 85874111: Magnetic resonance imaging (mri) of superior vena cava using other contrast

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a imaging intervention or procedure to magnetic resonance imaging (mri) of superior vena cava using other 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 B538YZZ

UNSPSC 85874111 Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of superior vena cava using other contrast is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific diagnostic imaging procedure — MRI imaging of the superior vena cava with contrast agents — yet the three most recent opportunities posted under this code involve diagnostic imaging systems and platforms (Picture Archiving and Communication Systems), special education contracted services, and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories. None of these solicitations procure MRI procedures, MRI equipment, contrast agents, or imaging protocols specific to the superior vena cava. The mismatch suggests that state and local procurement systems are tagging opportunities to this code inaccurately or that the code is being used as a catch-all for broader health information technology and clinical staffing needs rather than the specific procedure the code nominates.

The three opportunities posted under this code span San Mateo County (California), Birdville Independent School District (Texas), and Santa Clara County (California), with response dates ranging from October 7 through October 21, 2026. San Mateo Medical Center posted an RFP for enterprise-grade Diagnostic Imaging PACS with a due date of October 21, 2026, requiring EPIC integration and migration from a legacy ScImage system serving 65,000 annual radiology studies; Santa Clara Health System established a non-exclusive multiple-award qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing including diagnostic imaging and radiology services, due October 7, 2026; and Birdville ISD solicited special education contracted services across 23 line items with a due date of October 21, 2026. The code shows no recent genuine procurement of MRI services, imaging procedures, or contrast media. State and local buyers pursuing opportunities under this code should verify the actual scope of work in each solicitation rather than relying on the UNSPSC code assignment.
