Suite 37 (Level 4), 240 Plenty Road, Bundoora

This isn’t just a change of address – it’s the start of something bigger.

Our new home is right in the heart of the Uni Hill shopping precinct, surrounded by Melbourne’s leading and largest DFO outlet stores.

With accommodation at our partner The Quest Bundoora just 300 metres away, the world famous 86 tram leading to the avante garde of Northcote and the sparkles of the CBD at the front door, and Melbourne Airport only 25 minutes down the road, it couldn’t be easier to get here.

Inside, you’ll find Australia’s widest range of ultrasound systems under one roof, giving you the chance to train with the very best technology in a modern light and airy space purpose-built for learning.

Welcome to Australia’s new home of ultrasound – we can’t wait to see you here.

Here’s our recommendations of what to check out in the world of free ultrasound news this week! 🚀✨

  • Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine – Point-of-care ultrasound in the evaluation of STEMI patients (4 September)
