About these results

No practice in Griffith is accredited for PET. The nearest one is at I-MED Radiology Wagga Wagga in Wagga Wagga, about 151 km away, roughly 2 hr 29 min by road. It is the only PET service within 200 km of Griffith.

Griffith is not without imaging — x-ray, ultrasound, CT, MRI and nuclear medicine are available in town. The town page lists everything Griffith has.

To put 151 km in context: of the 1544 NSW towns we hold, 55 are further than Griffith from a PET service. It is a real trip, and worth planning as one.

151 km is a real trip, not a detail. Before you drive it, it is worth asking two things: whether you qualify for your state's patient travel assistance scheme, which exists for exactly this, and whether anything closer runs a visiting service — some regional hospitals do, on a roster we cannot see in the register.

Across New South Wales, 42 practices are accredited for PET and 19 of those are outside the capital. That is the arithmetic behind the distance above — PET is not spread evenly, and Griffith sits in one of the gaps.

The register has these accreditations running to: I-MED Radiology Wagga Wagga to 31 July 2027. We drop a modality the day its accreditation lapses, so if it is listed above it is current.

Of the one practice 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.
