Arizona MRI

Patients requiring an MRI in Arizona can schedule their exam at 11 conveniently located Arizona Diagnostic Imaging locations in the greater Phoenix metro area.

An MRI is often a necessary exam for diagnosing and treating various health concerns. MRI is a type of scan used to view internal body parts such as the organs, tissues and bones by using a magnetic field and radio waves.

Sometimes, a contrast agent is necessary during an MRI to help the radiologist see the body part being scanned more thoroughly. This is administered intravenously.

What is an MRA?

An MRA is a type of MRI exam that allows doctors the ability to look at blood vessels more thoroughly. Like MRIs, MRAs are noninvasive and less painful than traditional angiography, which involves inserting a catheter into the body.

MRI

MRIs are used to diagnose, treat and monitor conditions that affect the soft tissue such as:

  • Tumors
  • Soft tissue injuries
  • Joint injuries or diseases
  • Spinal injuries or diseases
  • Injuries or diseases of internal organs, including the brain, heart, and digestive organs

MRA

MRAs can be ordered for:

  • Strokes
  • Aortic coarctation
  • Carotid artery disease
  • Heart disease
  • Other blood vessel issues

How Much Does It Cost to Get an MRI in Arizona?

MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) scans offer a non-invasive, highly detailed way to visualize internal structures of the body, making them invaluable for diagnosing a wide range of medical conditions. They use strong magnetic fields and radio waves to create clear images of soft tissues, organs, and bones without using harmful radiation.

There are several types of MRI scans, each suited to different diagnostic needs:

  • Functional MRI (fMRI) measures brain activity by detecting changes in blood flow, often used in neurological research and pre-surgical planning.
  • Cardiac MRI evaluates heart structures and function, while musculoskeletal MRI focuses on joints, muscles, and bones.
  • Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA) images blood vessels to detect blockages or aneurysms. Each type plays a vital role in accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.

When considering how much an MRI costs in Arizona, it’s important to understand that the price can vary based on several factors. These include the type of MRI exam performed, whether contrast is used, the body part being scanned, and the patient’s insurance coverage, co-pay, or deductible.

Despite these variables, one of the most significant cost differences comes down to where the MRI is performed. Outpatient imaging centers, such as Arizona Diagnostic Radiology, typically offer the same high-quality exams at a fraction of the cost compared to hospitals, generally charging up to 50% less for the exact same procedure.

Choosing an outpatient facility can result in substantial savings, without compromising the accuracy or quality of care.

As a patient, you have the power to choose where you receive your imaging. Choosing Arizona Diagnostic Radiology means choosing exceptional quality, significant savings, and care you can trust.
