MRI near Tumut, NSW

If you need MRI, it will not be in Tumut — nothing here is accredited for it. The closest is I-MED Radiology Belconnen, 78 km away in Belconnen — about 2 hr 23 min in the car. After that, the options are I-MED Radiology Tuggeranong in Greenway (78 km) and I-MED Radiology Woden in Woden (79 km).

29 practices within 200 km of Tumut are accredited for MRI in total; the five above are the closest by straight-line distance from the centre of town.

The eligible ones are I-MED Radiology Belconnen, I-MED Radiology Woden and Canberra Imaging Group University of Canberra - Bruce (Superclinic) — they appear on the Government's Medicare-eligible MRI list (last updated 17 February 2026). I-MED Radiology Tuggeranong runs an accredited MRI unit that is not on the list, so ask what an MRI there would cost you.

Locally, Tumut is covered for x-ray, ultrasound and CT. A referral for one of those can be done here: everything Tumut has.

For scale, 64 of the 1544 towns we hold in NSW sit further from MRI than Tumut does.

New South Wales has 204 MRI practices in total, 84 of them outside the capital. The machines cluster where the population is, which is why the nearest one to Tumut is where it is.

Accreditation windows: I-MED Radiology Belconnen to 31 October 2026, I-MED Radiology Tuggeranong to 30 June 2029 and I-MED Radiology Woden 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 four list 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.
