What the Record Tells You
Desert MRI Lab LLC is an NPI registry record for an MRI centre at 7340 E Calle Meridan in Tuscon, Arizona 85710. CMS issued NPI 1356650105 on 28 September 2010, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 28 September 2010. That was 15 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: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) clinic/center (261QM1200X). The MRI-specific code means the organisation registered itself as a magnetic resonance imaging centre, the strongest signal the registry gives that a scanner is on site.
Tuscon sits in the Tucson, AZ metropolitan area (Pima County), which has 36 imaging-centre records on the Arizona side in the August 2026 file, 8 of them with the MRI code, out of 339 across Arizona. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Smi Imaging LLC (1.3 miles, Tucson), Radiology LTD., LLC (1.4 miles, Tucson) and Arizona Community Physician PC (2.4 miles, Tucson), with 2 more within 3.2 miles.
For a cash-pay benchmark, our Arizona range is $500 to $1,400 at freestanding imaging centres and $1,800 to $5,200 at hospitals for a typical single-region MRI. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (520) 820-9313 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
What to ask when you call
- 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.
- Scanner field strength (1.5T or 3T) and whether it is closed, wide-bore or open.
- ACR or IAC accreditation, and who reads the images. The registry cannot tell you either.
- Whether they accept an order from a telehealth referral if you have no local doctor.
