Nuclear medicine in Northern Territory
Northern Territory has 2 practices accredited for nuclear medicine, spread over two towns and suburbs.
Outside the capital there are no. That leaves large parts of Northern Territory more than an hour from the nearest one, which is what the town pages below are for.
Nuclear medicine uses a small amount of a radioactive tracer, so it needs a licensed department rather than a general imaging room.
The towns and suburbs with nuclear medicine include Tiwi and Stuart Park.
The heaviest concentrations are Tiwi (one practice) and Stuart Park (one practice). Outside those, most towns with nuclear medicine have exactly one practice, which is worth knowing when you are weighing a wait against a drive.
We publish no prices for nuclear medicine anywhere on this site. What we can tell you is where the machines are, who is accredited to run them, and how far you would have to go.
scanfinder shows you where imaging is available. Your doctor decides which scan you need — you'll need a referral for all of these.
