CT in Australia
1380 imaging practices in Australia are accredited for CT and take referred patients. 503 of them are outside a capital city.
A CT scanner takes a series of x-ray images and builds them into cross-sections.
Coverage by state: 453 in New South Wales, 352 in Victoria, 308 in Queensland, 124 in Western Australia, 85 in South Australia, 28 in Australian Capital Territory, 22 in Tasmania and 8 in Northern Territory.
Every scan needs a referral, and the practice — not the patient — is what determines whether Medicare eligibility applies. Pick your state below, then your town, for the nearest machine and how far it is.
On our count, 143 towns with imaging of their own have no CT at all. Those towns are where the distance matters most, and each has a page giving the nearest machine measured from there rather than from the nearest capital.
scanfinder shows you where imaging is available. Your doctor decides which scan you need — you'll need a referral for all of these.
