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 BR37ZZZ

UNSPSC 85877121 Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of thoracic spine is a Commodity code. The recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show no direct alignment with MRI services or thoracic spine imaging procurement. Instead, the three most recent opportunities tagged with this code cover diagnostic imaging systems architecture (San Mateo County Medical Center's PACS implementation), special education contracted services (Birdville Independent School District), and temporary health professional staffing including diagnostic imaging and radiology personnel (Santa Clara County Health System). The PACS solicitation represents enterprise-level imaging infrastructure—not specific MRI procedures—while the Santa Clara staffing RFQ includes diagnostic imaging and radiology as one category among thirteen ancillary clinical specialties. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual recent procurement suggests either mistagging by issuing bodies or minimal direct state and local procurement activity for dedicated MRI thoracic spine services under this Commodity code. State and local governments typically source MRI services through health system operational budgets and staffing agreements rather than discrete procedure-level commodity purchases.

The three opportunities originate from California and Texas health systems and school districts. San Mateo County Medical Center (a public hospital system serving all county residents) posted an RFP on October 7, 2026 for a Diagnostic Imaging PACS system due October 21, 2026, requiring EPIC integration and supporting 65,000 annual radiology studies plus 5,000 cardiology and 8,000 mammography interpretations. Santa Clara County Health System posted an RFQ on July 7, 2026 due October 7, 2026 to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary categories including diagnostic imaging and radiology, with no guaranteed work volume. Birdville Independent School District in Texas posted an IFB on September 18, 2026 for special education contracted services due October 21, 2026 covering 23 specialized line items across its 30 campuses. Geographic activity is concentrated in California and Texas, with no additional jurisdictions represented in the recent record.
