MRI near Trafalgar, VIC

If you need MRI, it will not be in Trafalgar — nothing here is accredited for it. The closest is Imaging Associates Warragul, 20 km away in Warragul — about 19 minutes in the car. After that, the options are I-MED Radiology Traralgon Latrobe Regional Hospital in Traralgon (28 km) and Imaging Associates Drouin in Drouin (28 km).

117 practices within 200 km of Trafalgar are accredited for MRI in total; the five above are the closest by straight-line distance from the centre of town.

The eligible ones are Imaging Associates Warragul, I-MED Radiology Traralgon Latrobe Regional Hospital and Imaging Associates Drouin — they appear on the Government's Medicare-eligible MRI list (last updated 17 February 2026). I-MED Radiology Pakenham runs an accredited MRI unit that is not on the list, so ask what an MRI there would cost you.

Trafalgar has no accredited imaging practice of its own that we can see in the register, so any scan means travelling. The closest imaging of any kind is Bond Radiology Moe in Moe, 10 km away.

To put 20 km in context: of the 850 VIC towns we hold, 198 are further than Trafalgar from a MRI service. It is a real trip, and worth planning as one.

Victoria has 140 MRI practices in total, 40 of them outside the capital. The machines cluster where the population is, which is why the nearest one to Trafalgar is where it is.

Accreditation windows: Imaging Associates Warragul to 30 June 2027, I-MED Radiology Traralgon Latrobe Regional Hospital to 30 September 2027 and Imaging Associates Drouin 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 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.
