A PET scan is the scarcest scan in Australia — the scanners sit almost entirely in capital cities and a handful of large regional hospitals.

Each suburb below has its own page, with the distances measured from there rather than from the middle of the district.

scanfinder shows you where imaging is available. Your doctor decides which scan you need — you'll need a referral for all of these.
