What the Record Tells You

Pediatric Diagnostic Imaging, S.C. is an NPI registry record for a radiology clinic/centre at 8522 W Capitol Dr in Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53222. CMS issued NPI 1033121629 on 12 August 2006, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 11 March 2009. That was 17 years ago, so treat the phone number and suite as unverified until you have spoken to someone there.

The record carries one imaging taxonomy code: Radiology clinic/center (261QR0200X). It registered as a radiology clinic without the MRI-specific code, so ask which modalities it operates before assuming an MRI is available. One other imaging record shares this street address: Discovery Imaging Center.

Milwaukee sits in the Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI metropolitan area (Milwaukee County), which has 47 imaging-centre records on the Wisconsin side in the September 2026 file, 7 of them with the MRI code, out of 110 across Wisconsin. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Discovery Imaging Center (0.0 miles, Milwaukee), McMc Radiology Services, LLC (2.0 miles, Milwaukee) and Affiliated Medical Imaging (2.0 miles, Milwaukee), with 2 more within 2.4 miles.

For a cash-pay benchmark, our Wisconsin freestanding-centre estimate is $500 to $1,350 for a typical single-region MRI. At Wisconsin hospitals the cash price is measured rather than estimated: $873 to $2,544 for a brain MRI, median $2,110, from 28 of the 42 Wisconsin hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 64 in the state, files dated to August 2026. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (414) 847-1800 with the CPT code for your scan and ask for the self-pay rate, whether the radiologist's report is included, and the scanner's field strength.

Cash-Price Benchmark

Cash price for a brain MRI in Wisconsin: 28 hospitals measured

Freestanding imaging centre, estimated

$500 to $1,350
Our own estimate. No imaging operator publishes a per-state cash price.

Hospital outpatient, measured

$873 to $2,544
Median $2,110 cash against a median gross charge of $3,811, from 28 of the 42 Wisconsin hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 64 in the state, files dated to August 2026.

Milwaukee and Madison competitive; Aurora and Froedtert large. The hospital figures are CPT 70551, brain MRI without contrast, taken from each hospital's own federal transparency file and attributed to the date that file carries. 9 more hospitals list this code at prices more than three times apart in the same file, from $79 to $1,049, so which row is the scan cannot be told from the file; they are excluded from the band and counted here. Hospitals whose file we could not read are named, not filled in (methodology).

What to ask when you call

  1. The self-pay price for your exact CPT code (70551 brain, 72148 lumbar spine, 73221 or 73721 joint, without contrast), and whether the radiologist's report is included.
  2. Scanner field strength (1.5T or 3T) and whether it is closed, wide-bore or open.
  3. ACR or IAC accreditation, and who reads the images. The registry cannot tell you either.
  4. Whether they accept an order from a telehealth referral if you have no local doctor.

Full list: cheap MRI, good MRI checklist.
