Across Victoria, 23 practices are accredited for PET and 5 of those are outside the capital. That is the arithmetic behind the distance above — PET is not spread evenly, and Heathcote sits in one of the gaps.

Accreditation windows: Bendigo Radiology Nuclear Medicine to 31 July 2027, Lumus Imaging Epping to 30 November 2027 and Northern Health (Northern Imaging Victoria) — Epping to 30 November 2026. 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 two list opening hours. Ring before you go rather than assuming — hours move, and not every accredited scan runs every day.
