Accreditation windows: I-MED Radiology Wagga Wagga to 31 July 2027, Qscan University of Canberra (PET-CT) to 30 November 2027 and Calvary Bruce Private Hospital to 30 June 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.

scanfinder shows you where imaging is available. Your doctor decides which scan you need — you'll need a referral for all of these.

About PET. A PET scan is the scarcest scan in Australia — the scanners sit almost entirely in capital cities and a handful of large regional hospitals. Accreditation means a practice meets the Medicare requirements for it — it is not a ranking, and we publish no ratings. Distances are straight-line from the centre of the town, so the drive is a little longer.
