Imaging Centers in Louisiana: 195 MRI and Radiology Centre Records
The September 2026 NPI file lists 195 imaging organisations in Louisiana: 89 registered under the MRI or radiology clinic codes (35, or 18%, with the MRI-specific code) and 106 diagnostic-radiology organisations classified by name. Lafayette is the largest market with 35 records, followed by New Orleans-Metairie (29), Baton Rouge (22) and Slidell-Mandeville-Covington (20). 9 records sit outside the metro areas listed below or alone in a small area; they are listed on this page.
Price context: a single-region MRI in Louisiana runs $500 to $1,350 cash at a freestanding centre, which is our own estimate. At hospitals it is measured, not estimated: a brain MRI runs $257 to $2,814 cash, median $692 against a median gross charge of $2,476, from 45 of the 55 Louisiana hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 82 in the state, files dated to September 2026. A further 2 hospitals publish their chargemaster unchanged as a “cash price”, up to $3,110, and are not in that range. New Orleans Ochsner system is large; Baton Rouge competitive.
