UNSPSC 85882413: Tomographic (tomo) nuclear medicine imaging of chest and neck using thallium 201 (tl-201)

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields an intervention or procedure of tomographic (tomo) nuclear medicine imaging of chest and neck using thallium 201 (tl-201). 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 CW26SZZ

UNSPSC 85882413 Tomographic nuclear medicine imaging of chest and neck using thallium 201 (tl-201) is a Commodity code that nominally describes a highly specialized diagnostic imaging modality, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not reflect purchases of thallium-201 imaging services or equipment. Instead, the three most recent solicitations posted under this code cover diagnostic imaging Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS) infrastructure, special education contracted services (audiologist, speech therapist, occupational therapist, and related disciplines), and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories including diagnostic imaging and radiology. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited indicates that this code shows little relevant recent activity in its specified domain; the opportunities tagged to it span unrelated service families.

The geographic spread includes California (San Mateo County and Santa Clara County) and Texas (Tarrant County), with the issuing bodies comprising a county hospital system, an independent school district, and a county health system. The San Mateo Medical Center PACS RFP (due October 21, 2026) sought enterprise-grade system implementation supporting radiology, cardiology, and dental imaging with EPIC integration; the Santa Clara Health System RFQ (due October 7, 2026) established a qualified vendor pool for temporary staffing in diagnostic imaging and radiology among thirteen ancillary clinical categories; and the Birdville Independent School District RFP (due October 21, 2026) solicited special education contracted services across 23 line items including speech language therapists and occupational therapists. None of these opportunities directly aligns with the code's stated focus on thallium-201 nuclear medicine imaging.
