UNSPSC 85882435: Tomographic (tomo) nuclear medicine imaging of chest 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 chest 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 CW231ZZ

UNSPSC 85882435 Tomographic (tomo) nuclear medicine imaging of chest using technetium 99m (tc-99m) is a Commodity code that appears in the recent state and local procurement record with minimal direct relevance. The three recent opportunities posted under or near this code—a diagnostic imaging PACS system procurement from San Mateo Medical Center, a special education contracted services RFP from Birdville Independent School District, and a temporary health professional staffing qualification vehicle from Santa Clara County Health System—do not align with the specific nuclear medicine imaging service named in the code. The PACS solicitation involves enterprise radiology and imaging system architecture, data migration, and visualization software, not nuclear medicine diagnostic procedures. The school district and county health system opportunities address staffing and contracted services across multiple clinical disciplines, including diagnostic imaging and radiology roles, but neither solicits nuclear medicine imaging specifically or addresses the technetium 99m chest protocols the code names.

The geographic distribution of these tangentially related opportunities spans California (San Mateo County, Santa Clara County) and Texas (Tarrant County), reflecting activity among county health systems and hospital operators rather than a concentrated regional pattern. The San Mateo Medical Center RFP, due October 21, 2026, represents the most directly related procurement—it covers diagnostic imaging infrastructure and includes radiology and cardiology imaging workflows—but does not isolate nuclear medicine services or specify isotope-based imaging. The code shows no documented recent state or local procurement activity for nuclear medicine imaging services themselves, suggesting either that such services are procured outside the UNSPSC taxonomy, are bundled into broader radiology or diagnostic imaging contracts, or are not actively solicited through the state and local channels captured in this dataset.
