MRI in Northern Territory
There are 4 MRI practices in Northern Territory, across three towns and suburbs.
one sit beyond the capital's ring. That leaves large parts of Northern Territory more than an hour from the nearest one, which is what the town pages below are for.
An MRI uses a magnetic field rather than x-rays, and the machines are expensive, so far fewer places have one.
Four of the 4 are on the Government's Medicare-eligible MRI list (last updated 17 February 2026). The remaining no hold MRI accreditation without being on that list, and a scan at one of them may attract no rebate at all.
The towns and suburbs with MRI include Tiwi, Alice Springs and Stuart Park.
The heaviest concentrations are Tiwi (two practices), Alice Springs (one practice) and Stuart Park (one practice). Outside those, most towns with MRI have exactly one practice, which is worth knowing when you are weighing a wait against a drive.
You will not find a price for MRI here — nobody publishes one reliably. Location, accreditation and distance are what we can stand behind.
scanfinder shows you where imaging is available. Your doctor decides which scan you need — you'll need a referral for all of these.
