About Shoulder MRI and MRI Shoulder Costs
A shoulder MRI provides detailed images of the rotator cuff, labrum, tendons, ligaments, and bones of the shoulder. It is typically ordered to evaluate shoulder pain, limited range of motion, or suspected rotator cuff tears and labral injuries.
Understanding Your Bill
The bill typically includes a technical fee for the scan and a separate reading fee. An MRI arthrogram (with injected contrast) costs more than a standard shoulder MRI.
