Why we’ve made this change

Our MRI service has been relocated as part of testing of Melbourne’s new Metro Tunnel. Trains using the new tunnel are expected to produce electromagnetic interference which may reduce the clarity of images generated by MRI equipment at Peter Mac’s Melbourne campus.

Testing has begun to understand the impact of any electromagnetic interference and steps will be put in place to protect the MRI equipment from potential interference.

The results of this testing will determine when MRI scanning can again take place at Peter Mac Melbourne.
