About these results

Macedon does not have a nuclear medicine service. The nearest one is at Lake Imaging Melton in Melton, about 29 km away. After that, the options are FMIG St Albans in St Albans (42 km) and Western Health Medical Imaging - Sunshine Hospital in St Albans (44 km).

60 practices within 200 km of Macedon are accredited for nuclear medicine in total; the five above are the closest by straight-line distance from the centre of town.

Within 10 km of Macedon, accredited imaging covers x-ray, ultrasound, CT and MRI. If your referral is for one of those, see everything Macedon has for the nearby options and their exact addresses.

To put 29 km in context: of the 850 VIC towns we hold, 205 are further than Macedon from a nuclear medicine service. It is a real trip, and worth planning as one.

Across Victoria, 63 practices are accredited for nuclear medicine and 15 of those are outside the capital. That is the arithmetic behind the distance above — nuclear medicine is not spread evenly, and Macedon sits in one of the gaps.

Accreditation windows: Lake Imaging Melton to 30 November 2027, FMIG St Albans to 30 June 2027 and Western Health Medical Imaging - Sunshine Hospital to 30 June 2027. 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 four list opening hours. A phone call before you travel is worth it: a practice can be accredited for a scan and still not run it daily.

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

About nuclear medicine. Nuclear medicine uses a small amount of a radioactive tracer, so it needs a licensed department rather than a general imaging room. 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.
