Private MRI in British Columbia
This page holds three separate things: what the legal record currently says about paying privately for an MRI here, every clinic price in this province that we have read from a primary source, and what the public system publishes about its own wait times. The first is under review. The other two are published below exactly as their sources publish them, and are never mixed together.
Paying privately for an MRI in British Columbia

Sources on file
These are the documents a reviewer will work from. Listing a document here records that we hold it — it does not record a conclusion about what it says.

Because this record has no reviewed status, this page carries no booking link, no enquiry form, and no commercial structured data. That follows automatically from the status field rather than from anyone remembering to remove it, and it will change only when a named reviewer sets a status.
Clinics with published prices
We hold no MRI clinic in British Columbia with a price read from a primary source. That is a statement about our records, not about the province: facilities may operate here whose rates we have not yet obtained.

Public system wait times in British Columbia
We hold no public-system wait time for British Columbia that we have read from a primary source. That is a statement about our records, not about the province: figures are transcribed one province at a time from the published data tables, and we will not stand a national average in for a provincial number or carry one over from a neighbouring province.

No exam in British Columbia yet has a price we have read first-hand, so there is nothing to compare.
