About these results

After that, the options are Qscan Hobart (PET-CT) in Hobart (170 km) and Royal Hobart Hospital Medical Imaging in Hobart (170 km).

For scale, 116 of the 185 towns we hold in TAS sit further from PET than Legana does.
Tasmania has 3 PET practices in total, 1 of them outside the capital. The machines cluster where the population is, which is why the nearest one to Legana is where it is.
Accreditation windows: I-MED Radiology St Vincents Hospital — Launceston to 31 July 2027, Qscan Hobart (PET-CT) to 31 October 2027 and Royal Hobart Hospital Medical Imaging to 30 November 2026. We drop a modality the day its accreditation lapses, so if it is listed above it is current.
Of the three 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.
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.
