Current Medicare accreditation runs: Lake Imaging St John of God Hospital Ballarat to 31 July 2027, Lake Imaging St John of God Hospital Geelong to 31 July 2027 and Barwon Medical Imaging (University Hospital Geelong) to 31 August 2027. We drop a modality the day its accreditation lapses, so if it is listed above it is current.

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.
