Hunter Imaging Newcastle

Hunter Imaging Newcastle is at Se 3, Fl 7 291 King St, Newcastle NSW 2300, and it is on the Medicare accreditation register.

MRI accredited, not Medicare-listed. This practice has an accredited MRI unit, but it does not appear on the Government's Medicare-eligible MRI list. An MRI here may not attract a Medicare rebate. Ask about the out-of-pocket cost before you book.

It is the only accredited imaging practice in Newcastle that we hold.

The register does not cover it for nuclear medicine and PET, so for those the nearest nuclear medicine is Prp Diagnostic Imaging Adamstown in Adamstown, about 4 km away and the nearest PET is Hunter New England Imaging - Calvary Mater Newcastle (Waratah) in Waratah, about 5 km away.

If this one does not suit, Hunter Imaging Cooks Hill is 1 km away in Cooks Hill. Lumus Imaging Lingard Private Hospital in Merewether is the next closest at 2 km. Prp Diagnostic Imaging Adamstown is 4 km away in Adamstown. A referral is not usually tied to a single practice — ask if you would rather go elsewhere.

In its own words, the practice offers Computed Tomography (CT), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Ultrasound and X-Rays. We keep provider-published service names inside the scope of what the register accredits, so a chain's national menu never becomes a claim about this branch.

This page is assembled from the Medicare LSPN register and a hand-verified check, plus the practice's own website — if any of it is out of date, the practice is right and we are wrong.

An MRI uses a magnetic field rather than x-rays, and the machines are expensive, so far fewer places have one.
