Why £399?
You'll find cheaper scans advertised (around £249), and hospitals often charge £600 or more. Our £399 isn't just a scan in a tube — it's the scan plus a full consultant radiologist report, a GP pre-test review, and someone to put the results in context and arrange what happens next. That's where the value is.
How it works
From booking to answers
1. Choose your route
Pick the area(s) you need and reserve online with a £25 deposit.
2. GP pre-test review
A 10-minute GP review and safety screen makes sure MRI is right and safe for you.
3. Scan & report
Your 30–45 minute scan, then a full consultant report — typically within 3–5 working days.
Comfortable, modern imaging
We scan on a wide-bore Siemens MAGNETOM (1.5T and 3T) with a Quiet Suite for a calmer, quieter experience — with room for patients who are claustrophobic or larger-framed. There's no radiation. Reporting is by consultant radiologists via Pro-Scan Imaging.

FAQs
Common questions
Do I need a referral from my GP?
No. You can book directly — our GP completes a 10-minute pre-test review and safety screen before every scan.
How quickly will I get my results?
Your scan is reported by a consultant radiologist, typically within 3–5 working days. Urgent reporting can be arranged.
Is there any radiation?
No. MRI uses a strong magnet and radio waves — there is no ionising radiation, which is one reason it's so useful for soft tissue, joints, brain and spine.
I'm claustrophobic or larger-framed — can you help?
Yes. Our wide-bore scanner and Quiet Suite are designed for comfort, with more room and less noise. Tell us in advance and we'll plan your visit around you.
Can I use private medical insurance?
Many patients self-pay, but we can provide an itemised invoice in your insurer's preferred format — please check your policy first.
