UNSPSC 85881049: Tomographic (tomo) nuclear medicine imaging of thorax using technetium 99m (tc-99m)

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields an intervention or procedure of tomographic (tomo) nuclear medicine imaging of thorax using technetium 99m (tc-99m). 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 CP241ZZ

UNSPSC 85881049 Tomographic (tomo) nuclear medicine imaging of thorax using technetium 99m (tc-99m) is a Commodity code whose nominal scope does not align with the state and local opportunities recently posted under it. The three recent solicitations posted between July and October 2026 involve diagnostic imaging picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) implementation, special education contracted services, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which concern tomographic nuclear medicine imaging of the thorax or isotope-specific imaging protocols. The PACS opportunity from San Mateo Medical Center emphasizes enterprise-grade system implementation, data migration, and EPIC integration across radiology, cardiology, and dental imaging; the Santa Clara Health System solicitation seeks temporary diagnostic imaging and radiology staffing; and the Birdville Independent School District opportunity covers special education services entirely unrelated to medical imaging. State and local procurement activity under this code shows no substantive recent demand for the specific service described in its name.

San Mateo County and Santa Clara County in California, along with Birdville Independent School District in Texas, are the sole recent issuing bodies posting under this code. The SMMC PACS solicitation (RFP 660002526251, due October 21, 2026) calls for enterprise imaging system implementation with 99.9% uptime, support for 100 concurrent users, and integration with EPIC, serving 65,000 radiology studies annually plus cardiology and mammography volumes; the Santa Clara Health System RFQ (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) establishes a non-exclusive qualified vendor pool for temporary diagnostic imaging and radiology staffing across multiple clinical specialties; and the Birdville ISD opportunity (01027, due October 21, 2026) solicits special education contracted services unrelated to medical imaging. The code appears to have been misapplied to recent opportunities, and business development professionals should verify actual procurement intent before pursuing activity under this code.
