To put 76 km in context: of the 1544 NSW towns we hold, 176 are further than Temora from a PET service. It is a real trip, and worth planning as one.

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 Temora sits in one of the gaps.

Current Medicare accreditation runs: 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.
