Vision Radiology Lilydale

Vision Radiology Lilydale is an accredited imaging practice at 275 Main St, Lilydale VIC 3140. Its Medicare Location Specific Practice Number is 11797, and the register lists it as accredited for x-ray, ultrasound, CT and MRI — accredited since 15 December 2023, current to 30 June 2027.

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.

Phone 03 8658 0944, their website and listed hours monday-friday: 8:30am-5:00pm; saturday: 9:00am-1:00pm; closed public holidays. Those details are the ones the practice publishes itself.

There are two accredited practices in Lilydale; which one suits you is a question of hours, wait and what they charge, not of accreditation.

This practice is not accredited for nuclear medicine and PET. If your referral is for one of those, the nearest nuclear medicine is Eastern Health (Maroondah Hospital) in Ringwood East, about 10 km away and the nearest PET is Lumus Imaging Knox Private Hospital in Wantirna, about 15 km away.

If this one does not suit, I-MED Radiology Lilydale is 0 km away in Lilydale. I-MED Radiology Croydon in Croydon is the next closest at 7 km. Eastern Health (Maroondah Hospital) is 10 km away in Ringwood East. A referral is not usually tied to a single practice — ask if you would rather go elsewhere.

In its own words, the practice offers CT Scan, Calcium Scoring, Cardiac CT, General X-Ray, Interventional Procedures and Musculoskeletal Imaging. 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.

What we hold about this site comes from the Medicare LSPN register and healthdirect's directory, plus the practice's own website.

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