Nuclear medicine near Gulgong, NSW

There is no nuclear medicine service in Gulgong. The closest is Dubbo Base Hospital Radiology Department, 87 km away in Dubbo — about 1 hr 35 min in the car. After that, the options are Lumus Imaging Dubbo in Dubbo (88 km) and PRP Diagnostic Imaging Dubbo in Dubbo (88 km).

13 practices within 200 km of Gulgong are accredited for nuclear medicine in total; the five above are the closest by straight-line distance from the centre of town.

Gulgong has no accredited imaging practice of its own that we can see in the register, so any scan means travelling. The closest imaging of any kind is Mudgee Health Service Medical Imaging (WNSWLHD) in Mudgee, 26 km away.

To put 87 km in context: of the 1544 NSW towns we hold, 69 are further than Gulgong from a nuclear medicine service. It is a real trip, and worth planning as one.

Across New South Wales, 103 practices are accredited for nuclear medicine and 42 of those are outside the capital. That is the arithmetic behind the distance above — nuclear medicine is not spread evenly, and Gulgong sits in one of the gaps.

Accreditation windows: Dubbo Base Hospital Radiology Department to 30 September 2027, Lumus Imaging Dubbo to 30 November 2026 and PRP Diagnostic Imaging Dubbo to 31 May 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.
