Unit: per region. 58 000 Ft is the flat single-region rate (brain, forearm, face, ankle, cervical spine, thigh, bony pelvis, wrist, upper arm, hand and more). Bilateral hip is 68 000 Ft and abdominal or pelvic regions are dearer (95 000 to 147 000 Ft), so 'one region' here means a limb or a spine segment. BHC charges 57 000 Ft for the same thing, which is a close independent confirmation.

mind.hu · Seller's own label: "Has MR vizsgálat (natív)". Unit: per scan. THE TABLE HAS TWO PRICE COLUMNS, headed 'Nativ' and 'Kontrasztos', so each row carries both: 62.000 Ft without contrast and 109.000 Ft with. A dash in a column means that variant is not offered. This is a named region (abdomen) rather than a flat per-region rate, which is how Szent Magdolna and Duna Medical Center price MRI, so the two are not directly comparable: this clinic's regions run 62.000 to 143.000 Ft native.

szentmagdolna.com · Seller's own label: "Gerinc – nyaki natív MR vizsgálata". Unit: per region. One region, no contrast. The lumbar and thoracic spine rows cost exactly the same 56 900 Ft, and a knee MRI is in the same block, so the hospital prices MRI flat by region, which is what our item assumes. With contrast it is 89 900 Ft. The page's own header says all prices are indicative and do not amount to a binding offer, so every row from this host is indicative.
