Nuclear medicine near Theodore, QLD

Theodore has no nuclear medicine of its own. The nearest one is at I-MED Radiology Rockhampton in The Range, about 177 km away. After that, the options are Central Queensland Radiology Rockhampton Hospital in Rockhampton (179 km).

Theodore is not without imaging — x-ray and ultrasound are available in town. The town page lists everything Theodore has.

For scale, 73 of the 1062 towns we hold in QLD sit further from nuclear medicine than Theodore does.

That is a long way to go for a scan, and there is no way to make 177 km shorter. 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 Theodore is where it is.

The register has these accreditations running to: I-MED Radiology Rockhampton to 30 June 2027 and Central Queensland Radiology Rockhampton Hospital to 31 May 2027. We drop a modality the day its accreditation lapses, so if it is listed above it is current.

Of the two practices listed, all publish a phone number, all have a website and one lists opening hours. Ring before you go rather than assuming — hours move, and not every accredited scan runs every day.
