Nuclear medicine near Manilla, NSW

Manilla does not have a nuclear medicine service. The closest is Castlereagh Imaging Tamworth (now Hunter Imaging, Sonic Healthcare), 43 km away in Tamworth — about 39 minutes in the car. After that, the options are I-MED Radiology Armidale in Armidale (93 km).

Manilla 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 Alpenglow Tamworth Diagnostic Imaging in Tamworth, 41 km away.

To put 43 km in context: of the 1544 NSW towns we hold, 172 are further than Manilla 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 Manilla sits in one of the gaps.

Accreditation windows: Castlereagh Imaging Tamworth (now Hunter Imaging, Sonic Healthcare) to 31 August 2027 and I-MED Radiology Armidale to 31 July 2027. We drop a modality the day its accreditation lapses, so if it is listed above it is current.

Of the two practices listed, all publish a phone number, all have a website and one lists opening hours. A phone call before you travel is worth it: a practice can be accredited for a scan and still not run it daily.
