MRI near Pittsworth, QLD

If you need MRI, it will not be in Pittsworth — nothing here is accredited for it. The nearest one is at Toowoomba Hospital Medical Imaging in Toowoomba, about 35 km away, roughly 36 minutes by road. After that, the options are Queensland X-Ray South Toowoomba in South Toowoomba (35 km) and Queensland X-Ray St Andrew's Hospital Toowoomba in Rockville (35 km).

Widen the search to 200 km and there are 107 MRI practices; the closest five are above.

All of them are on the Australian Government's list of Medicare-eligible MRI locations (last updated 17 February 2026), so a Medicare rebate is possible for scans done there. Whether your scan attracts one depends on the item your referral asks for and on who wrote it — GPs can request a limited set of MRI items and specialists can request more.

Pittsworth has no accredited imaging practice of its own that we can see in the register, so any scan means travelling. The closest imaging of any kind is Specialist Radiology Drayton in Drayton, 31 km away.

To put 35 km in context: of the 1062 QLD towns we hold, 181 are further than Pittsworth from a MRI service. It is a real trip, and worth planning as one.

Across Queensland, 140 practices are accredited for MRI and 71 of those are outside the capital. That is the arithmetic behind the distance above — MRI is not spread evenly, and Pittsworth sits in one of the gaps.

The register has these accreditations running to: Toowoomba Hospital Medical Imaging to 30 November 2026, Queensland X-Ray South Toowoomba to 30 June 2027 and Queensland X-Ray St Andrew's Hospital Toowoomba to 31 July 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 three list opening hours. Ring before you go rather than assuming — hours move, and not every accredited scan runs every day.
