About these results

Nambour has no PET of its own. The closest is Qscan Maroochydore, 14 km away in Maroochydore — about 20 minutes in the car. After that, the options are I-MED Radiology Buderim Private Hospital in Buderim (15 km) and Sunshine Coast University Hospital in Birtinya (20 km).

There are 31 PET practices within 200 km of Nambour altogether — the five listed are simply the nearest.

Within 10 km of Nambour, accredited imaging covers x-ray, ultrasound, CT and MRI. If your referral is for one of those, see everything Nambour has for the nearby options and their exact addresses.

To put 14 km in context: of the 1062 QLD towns we hold, 439 are further than Nambour from a PET service. It is a real trip, and worth planning as one.

Across Queensland, 37 practices are accredited for PET and 23 of those are outside the capital. That is the arithmetic behind the distance above — PET is not spread evenly, and Nambour sits in one of the gaps.

The register has these accreditations running to: Qscan Maroochydore to 30 June 2027, I-MED Radiology Buderim Private Hospital to 31 July 2027 and Sunshine Coast University Hospital to 31 August 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 one lists 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.

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

About PET. A PET scan is the scarcest scan in Australia — the scanners sit almost entirely in capital cities and a handful of large regional hospitals. Accreditation means a practice meets the Medicare requirements for it — it is not a ranking, and we publish no ratings. Distances are straight-line from the centre of the town, so the drive is a little longer.
