Two things are worth knowing: every state and territory runs a patient travel assistance scheme for people who have to travel for care, and the local health service or your referring doctor can tell you whether you qualify. Some regional hospitals also run visiting services on a roster, which the accreditation register cannot show us — worth one phone call before you plan the trip.

Queensland has 82 nuclear medicine practices in total, 45 of them outside the capital. The machines cluster where the population is, which is why the nearest one to Gayndah is where it is.

The register has these accreditations running to: Wide Bay Nuclear Medicine - Bundaberg to 31 July 2027, I-MED Radiology Bundaberg to 30 June 2027 and Gympie Radiology to 30 November 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. A phone call before you travel is worth it: a practice can be accredited for a scan and still not run it daily.
