MRI in Australian Capital Territory
16 practices in Australian Capital Territory are accredited for MRI, in nine towns and suburbs.
No of them are outside the capital. That leaves large parts of Australian Capital Territory more than an hour from the nearest one, which is what the town pages below are for.
An MRI uses a magnetic field rather than x-rays, and the machines are expensive, so far fewer places have one.
Eight of the 16 are on the Government's Medicare-eligible MRI list (last updated 17 February 2026). The remaining eight hold MRI accreditation without being on that list, and a scan at one of them may attract no rebate at all.
The towns and suburbs with MRI include Garran, Deakin, Bruce, Dickson, Turner, Woden, Greenway and Belconnen.
The heaviest concentrations are Garran (four practices), Deakin (three practices), Bruce (three practices), Dickson (one practice) and Turner (one practice). Outside those, most towns with MRI have exactly one practice, which is worth knowing when you are weighing a wait against a drive.
You will not find a price for MRI here — nobody publishes one reliably. Location, accreditation and distance are what we can stand behind.
scanfinder shows you where imaging is available. Your doctor decides which scan you need — you'll need a referral for all of these.
