The register has these accreditations running to: Prp Diagnostic Imaging-Orange to 31 October 2027, Dubbo Health Service to 30 November 2027 and Qscan University of Canberra (PET-CT) to 30 November 2027. We drop a modality the day its accreditation lapses, so if it is listed above it is current.

Of the five practices listed, all publish a phone number, all have a website and one lists opening hours. Ring before you go rather than assuming — hours move, and not every accredited scan runs every day.
