UNSPSC 85891814: High dose rate (hdr) brachytherapy of pineal body using californium 252 (cf-252)

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a radiation therapy intervention or procedure of high dose rate (hdr) brachytherapy of pineal body using californium 252 (cf-252). 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 DG119CZ

UNSPSC 85891814 High dose rate brachytherapy of pineal body using californium 252, a Commodity code, shows minimal relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a highly specialized cancer treatment modality involving radioactive implants, yet the only recent state and local opportunity tagged to this code is unrelated to brachytherapy, radiotherapy, or oncology services.

The County of Santa Clara Health System posted RFQ RFSQHHSFY270052 on July 7, 2026, due October 7, 2026, to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories including audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, gastroenterology, orthopedic, respiratory care, sterile processing, and therapy services—none of which align with the code's stated scope. This mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in the opportunity's UNSPSC assignment or that the code does not reflect actual state and local procurement demand for specialized brachytherapy or radiation oncology services. No additional recent opportunities appear in the record to establish geographic spread, repeat-buyer patterns, or typical solicitation structure for this code. Business development professionals should verify whether state and local oncology programs and cancer centers use separate codes or procurement channels for high-dose-rate brachytherapy equipment, supplies, and staffing before pursuing activity under this taxonomy entry.
