The cost of MRI spine various from different hospitals depending upon the machine they use. Bigger hospitals use high resolution machines with higher kilo Tesla magnets and the cost will be higher, but we will be able to see the minute details. Typically, the cost varies from Rs 5000 - 10000. Hope this discussion will be helpful to you. Thank you.
