UNSPSC 85891810: Low dose rate (ldr) brachytherapy of pineal body using iodine 125 (i-125)

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a radiation therapy intervention or procedure of low dose rate (ldr) brachytherapy of pineal body using iodine 125 (i-125). 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 DG11B9Z

UNSPSC 85891810 Low dose rate (ldr) brachytherapy of pineal body using iodine 125 (i-125) is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity. The most recent opportunity on record—a request for qualifications from the County of Santa Clara Health System posted July 7, 2026—is for temporary health professional staffing services across ancillary clinical categories including audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, gastroenterology, ophthalmology, orthopedic services, respiratory care, sterile processing, surgical and operating room support, and therapy services. This staffing solicitation does not align with the code's nominal scope of specialized brachytherapy treatment; the opportunity appears to have been tagged with this code in error or as a catch-all, and does not reflect actual procurement under the code's specialized oncological treatment purpose.

The County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ, due October 7, 2026, is the only recent state and local opportunity identifiable under this code. The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity—low dose rate brachytherapy for pineal tumors—and the generalized temporary staffing services being solicited suggests either miscategorization in the source data or an exceptional circumstance. Geographic activity cannot be reliably characterized from a single solicitation. Given the code's highly specialized clinical scope and the absence of relevant recent procurement activity, this code warrants close monitoring for actual brachytherapy service solicitations but does not represent a meaningful current opportunity pipeline.
