Cost to you
Ultrasound-guided $155 (private gap)
Bulk billed for pension and concession card holders
Ultrasound and CT-guided injections target medication precisely to the structure causing your pain — joints, tendon sheaths, bursae, nerve roots and facet joints. Performed by experienced radiologists, often a more accurate alternative to landmark-guided injections.
What to expect
- Quiet, private procedure room with one of our radiologists.
- The skin is cleaned and a small amount of local anaesthetic numbs the area.
- Ultrasound (or CT for spinal procedures) guides the needle in real-time.
- Allow up to 45 minutes at the clinic.
How to prepare
- Continue your normal medication unless we or your doctor has advised otherwise.
- Bring any prior imaging or reports your doctor referenced in the referral.
- Arrange for a driver if possible.
CT-guided injections are bulk billed. Ultrasound-guided injections have a private gap of $155. Concession and pension card holders are bulk billed for both, and reception confirms the cost when you book.
In the room
We guide the needle in real time so the medication ends up where it needs to be.
