To put 95 km in context: of the 1544 NSW towns we hold, 138 are further than Tumbarumba 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 Tumbarumba sits in one of the gaps.

Current Medicare accreditation runs: I-MED Radiology Wagga Wagga to 31 July 2027, I-MED Radiology Borella Rd, Albury to 31 July 2027 and The Canberra Hospital Medical Imaging 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 two list opening hours. Ring before you go rather than assuming — hours move, and not every accredited scan runs every day.

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.
