Today the early diagnosis of many diseases is of vital importance. For this, various diagnostic tests are used, among which magnetic resonance imaging stands out. This method is positioned as one of the most reliable and safe on the market as well as less invasive. However, many people wonder: What is the price of an MRI?
HOW TO GET THE BEST PRICE FOR AN MRI?
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an imaging test based on the study through a powerful magnetic field of various anatomical regions in various planes of space. In this way, a three-dimensional reconstruction of the area of the organism to be analyzed is achieved so that the specialist doctor can subsequently examine said results and obtain a diagnosis, or rule it out.
However, when talking about the price of an MRI, several factors must be taken into account that directly influences how it will be:
- The facilities where the test is carried out. Performing the test in a hospital is not the same as performing the test in a specialized center solely for this type of diagnostic test.
- The technological equipment used in carrying out the test. Numerous pieces of equipment perform magnetic resonance imaging. The more technologically advanced the equipment is, the more precise the result will be and the higher resolution it will have, so this point makes the price of the test vary considerably.
- Prior advice. There are some places where no pre-test counseling is indicated to the patient. This is not essential to perform the MRI, but it is recommended since the patient will feel more comfortable and safer than if they had no information.
- The staff performing the test. Another point to note is who performs the diagnostic test. Normally this is carried out by a specialized radiology technician, but this is not always the case. Treatment before, during, and after the test is something that helps patients feel comfortable.
- The speed of the citation. From the moment the patient calls to request an appointment until it is given, a relevant amount of time passes, which directly depends on the time it takes to perform the test. The less time elapses in that period, the more the price of the MRI will vary, but the better the service offered to the patient.
- The speed in obtaining results. After performing the test, patients are often anxious to know the results. The time it takes to obtain them is one of the keys that determine the price of magnetic resonance imaging and, also, the quality of the service offered to the patient.
- How the results are delivered. Normally, MRIs are delivered either via CD or electronically. Although this may seem like a small thing, it implies an investment by the center where the tests are carried out, so it does affect the price of the MRI.
GET AN MRI WITHOUT WAITING LISTS
Nuclear magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a highly requested diagnostic test by medical specialists to detect different anomalies in the body. For this reason, they are also one of the tests that generate the largest waiting lists in Public Health. This means that specialized centers in the performance of magnetic resonance imaging that belong to the private sector offer patients a very fast alternative for this problem.
At our RESOCAN MRI center, we offer just that: a solution in record time. We know that time is very valuable when diagnosing certain pathologies to treat them at the right time. For this reason, we offer in the Canary Islands the latest cutting-edge technology with the highest resolution and precision in the shortest possible time and, above all, at the best market price.
