UNSPSC 85881048: Tomographic (tomo) nuclear medicine imaging of thorax using other radionuclide

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields an intervention or procedure of tomographic (tomo) nuclear medicine imaging of thorax using other radionuclide. 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 CP24YZZ

UNSPSC 85881048 Tomographic nuclear medicine imaging of thorax using other radionuclide is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitations, does not map to active procurement activity in this specific imaging modality. The code nominally describes a narrow clinical diagnostic service — tomographic (SPECT) nuclear medicine imaging of the chest using radionuclides other than technetium-99m — yet the recent opportunities tagged to this code describe enterprise picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) procurement, special education contracted services, and temporary health professional staffing. These solicitations fall outside the scope of nuclear medicine imaging services themselves and reflect either cataloging mismatches or a mismatch between the code's technical scope and the way issuing bodies are tagging procurements in practice.

The available records show no direct procurement of tomographic nuclear medicine imaging services, imaging protocols, or related diagnostic capabilities by state or local governments under this code. San Mateo Medical Center's PACS solicitation (RFP, due October 21, 2026) does encompass diagnostic imaging infrastructure supporting cardiology and radiology across approximately 65,000 radiology studies annually, but the platform procurement itself is not a nuclear medicine imaging service. Without evidence of actual state and local demand for tomographic nuclear medicine imaging of the thorax as a billable service, staffing model, or equipment acquisition under this code, pursuit should be treated as speculative. Firms active in nuclear medicine imaging should monitor whether future solicitations for diagnostic imaging services, equipment leasing, or mobile imaging services appear under corrected UNSPSC codes or whether health systems formally solicit this modality through their capital or clinical services procurement channels.
