UNSPSC 85882429: Tomographic (tomo) nuclear medicine imaging of chest 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 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 CW23SZZ

UNSPSC 85882429 Tomographic (tomo) nuclear medicine imaging of chest using thallium 201 (Tl-201) is a Commodity code that designates a specific diagnostic imaging procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it describe health professional staffing, diagnostic imaging systems infrastructure, and special education contracted services—activities plainly outside the scope of a specialized nuclear medicine imaging modality. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual solicitations suggests either misclassification in state and local procurement systems or that the code sees limited direct procurement activity at the state and local level. No recent state and local opportunities solicit nuclear medicine imaging services, equipment, or related supplies under this code.

The three opportunities in the recent block—San Mateo Medical Center's PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) implementation (RFP due October 21, 2026), Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing qualification (RFQ due October 7, 2026), and Birdville Independent School District's special education contracted services (sealed proposal due October 21, 2026)—fall outside diagnostic nuclear medicine procurement. State and local procurement professionals evaluating this code should verify the correct UNSPSC classification for nuclear medicine imaging services or determine whether the code's recent activity reflects data quality issues in the underlying procurement records rather than genuine market opportunity.
