Ultrasound in Tasmania

28 practices in Tasmania are accredited for ultrasound, in 19 towns and suburbs.

13 of them are outside the capital. That leaves large parts of Tasmania more than an hour from the nearest one, which is what the town pages below are for.

An ultrasound uses sound waves and is done by a sonographer, usually by appointment.

One towns in Tasmania have imaging of their own but no ultrasound. Each of those has a page giving the nearest machine and the distance from that town — that is the number that decides whether the scan happens.

The towns and suburbs with ultrasound include Launceston, Hobart, South Launceston, South Hobart, East Launceston, Devonport, Cooee and North Hobart.

The heaviest concentrations are Launceston (five practices), Hobart (four practices), South Launceston (two practices), South Hobart (two practices) and East Launceston (one practice). Outside those, most towns with ultrasound have exactly one practice, which is worth knowing when you are weighing a wait against a drive.

There are no prices on this site, for ultrasound or anything else. What we do hold is the location, the accreditation and the distance.

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