What are the I‑MED Radiology locations?
I‑MED operates clinics in every Australian state and territory as well as in New Zealand. The network’s coverage includes metropolitan hospitals, suburban centres, and regional areas. The official clinic list (I-MED Clinic List spreadsheet, Feb 2023) shows locations in ACT, NSW, QLD, VIC, TAS, and SA.

- Located in Hamilton, Victoria – part of the regional network

The pattern: I‑MED prioritises accessibility by placing clinics in both high‑density suburbs and smaller regional towns, making imaging available to a wide population.
With over 240 clinics and 110 MRI locations, I‑MED’s density means most Australians are within a short drive of a clinic. For patients in rural areas, this coverage can be the difference between getting a timely diagnosis and waiting weeks.
What this means for regional access: I‑MED’s network design directly addresses the urban‑rural imaging gap in Australia.
How do I get my I‑MED Radiology results?
Accessing your images and reports is straightforward through two channels: the patient app and the practitioner portal. Both are designed to reduce wait times and improve communication between you and your referring doctor.
Accessing results via patient portal
- The I‑MED MyImages app is available for iOS and Android
- Patients can view their images and reports directly on the app
- Requires a referral and registration at the clinic to activate account
- Download from the I‑MED homepage
Viewing images on I‑MED MyImages app
- After scanning, you will receive instructions to download the app
- Images are typically available within 24–48 hours
- Results are also shared directly with your referring practitioner via I‑MED Online – secure practitioner portal
Why this matters: giving patients direct access to their imaging reduces anxiety and allows them to discuss findings with their doctor more informed.
How do I log into I‑MED Radiology patient portal?
The patient portal is the same as the MyImages app – there is no separate web login for patients. For medical practitioners, the portal is at portal.i‑medonline.com.au (I‑MED Online – secure referring practitioner login).
Steps to access I‑MED patient login
- Download the I‑MED MyImages app from the App Store or Google Play
- Open the app and tap “Register”
- Enter the code provided by the clinic when you had your scan
- Create a password and verify your identity
- Your images and reports will appear under “My Exams”
Troubleshooting login issues
- If you forgot your password, use the “Forgot password” link in the app
- Make sure you use the same email that was registered at the clinic
- If the clinic did not provide a registration code, contact the clinic directly (phone numbers on I‑MED Find a Clinic page)
The catch: while the app is convenient, first‑time setup requires a code from the clinic – so keep your after‑scan instructions.
Practitioners have a more mature portal (I‑MED Online) that has been used for years. Patients should expect the MyImages app to improve over time, but for now, the bulk of the digital infrastructure is optimised for referring doctors, not patients.
The implication: patients should plan for a short registration step before they can access results independently.
What imaging procedures does I‑MED Radiology offer?
I‑MED covers the full spectrum of diagnostic imaging. The combination of modalities means most common and complex scans can be performed within the network.
