Precise Answers for Athletes and Everyday Pain
Whether you're recovering from a sports injury or living with chronic joint pain, our board-certified radiologists deliver detailed musculoskeletal imaging using both wide bore MRI and on-site CT, with results in hours, not days.
Why Patients Choose Smart Scan Milwaukee
Every scan is read by a board-certified, fellowship-trained radiologist.
Structured protocols and rapid reporting mean results in hours, not days.
A flat rate for every patient, self-pay or insured, that can save you hundreds or thousands compared to hospital pricing.
Our Siemens 3.0 Tesla wide bore MRI offers 30% more room and less noise than a traditional scanner.
Milwaukee offers CT scanning on-site, ideal for fractures, complex breaks, and other hard-tissue detail that complements what MRI shows in soft tissue.
Getting Scanned Is Easy
Scheduling takes minutes, and same-day appointments are often available.
Two Tools, One Location
Milwaukee patients have access to both wide bore MRI and CT on-site, and the two tools show different things. MRI provides the clearest picture of soft tissue like ligaments, tendons, cartilage, and muscle, while CT is often the better choice for bone detail, including fractures, complex breaks, and post-surgical hardware. Your provider will recommend the scan type that fits your specific injury.
Fair Pricing, No Surprises
A musculoskeletal MRI at Smart Scan is $650 without contrast for most exams and $850 with and without contrast, the same flat rate whether you're paying out of pocket or through insurance. That can mean savings of up to 80% compared to hospital pricing for the same scan. We also accept Medicare and most major insurance plans, including Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, UnitedHealthcare, Cigna, and more.

Get In Touch with Us:
MRI and CT are both non-invasive, though the experience differs a bit between the two. For an MRI, you'll lie on a padded table while the machine takes its images; it's painless, though you may hear knocking noises, and we provide earphones so you can listen to music. A CT scan is much quicker, often completed in just seconds. Before either scan, remove any metal jewelry, piercings, or watches, and let our team know if you have any metal implants. Comfortable clothing works well, or you're welcome to change into a gown or scrubs.
