Project details: The Centre for Advanced Imaging is a highly advanced medical imaging facility which includes a cyclotron unit, used to generate radioactive isotopes for medical imaging equipment. The new structure is built on the University of Queensland’s St Lucia Campus, and also includes several magnetic resonance imaging units, a full floor of PC2 laboratories, associated teaching and academic spaces and related facilities.

It is the only facility of its type in Australia, one of only a handful in the world and once completed will house a powerful MRI system that is more than twice as strong as any other MRI system currently available in the Southern Hemisphere.The project includes the extensive refurbishment of the adjoining Gehrmann Building and also the chillers on the nearby Ritchie Building.
This highly advanced project requires specialist construction skills, given the very high operational standards required for cyclotrons and MRI installations.
