Used and refurbished MRI machines in Europe are typically priced between €150,000 and €600,000, depending on field strength, age, manufacturer, and included accessories. A refurbished 1.5T system — the most common choice for hospitals and imaging centers — generally falls in the €200,000–€400,000 range. Higher-field 3T systems start from around €400,000.

Keep in mind that total project cost is higher than the machine price alone: site preparation, installation, and a service contract typically add €50,000–€150,000 or more to the overall investment. Agito Medical provides transparent pricing and full cost-of-ownership guidance as part of every inquiry.

Field strength determines image resolution and the range of diagnostic applications a system can support. A 1.5T MRI is the clinical standard for general diagnostic imaging — it covers the vast majority of neurology, musculoskeletal, abdominal, and cardiac applications at a lower cost and with simpler infrastructure requirements.

A 3T MRI delivers higher resolution and is preferred for advanced neurological imaging, research applications, and detailed cardiac or oncology work. For most hospitals and outpatient imaging centers, a well-maintained refurbished 1.5T system is the most cost-effective entry point. If your facility performs specialist imaging in neurology or research, a 3T system is worth the additional investment.

The purchase price of the scanner is only part of the total cost. When budgeting for a refurbished MRI, you should also account for:

• Site preparation — RF shielding, structural reinforcement, and dedicated electrical and cooling infrastructure. This alone can add €50,000–€150,000+.
• Installation and transport — Magnet transport is highly specialised and costly, particularly for superconducting systems.
• Helium management — Superconducting MRI magnets require liquid helium, with ongoing refill and management costs.
• Annual service contract — Essential for uptime and compliance. Expect €30,000–€100,000 per year depending on the system and coverage level.
• Staff training and certification — Most installations include basic operator training, but additional certification may be required.

Working with an experienced supplier who includes site guidance and post-installation support significantly reduces the risk of unexpected costs.

It depends on your facility's timeline, capital situation, and long-term imaging strategy. Purchasing a refurbished MRI outright is typically the most cost-effective option over a 5–10 year horizon — especially when working with a supplier who provides quality-tested equipment and ongoing parts support. Renting makes more sense when you need temporary capacity during equipment downtime, want to test a system before committing to purchase, or face seasonal volume fluctuations.

Agito Medical offers both purchase and rental options, including mobile MRI units available for short- and long-term deployment, so you can match the solution to your actual operational needs rather than a standard model.

All refurbished MRI systems from Agito Medical undergo rigorous testing, part replacement, software updates, and cosmetic restoration before delivery. Warranty terms are confirmed at the time of sale and vary depending on system type, age, and configuration. In addition to the machine warranty, Agito Medical supplies high-quality spare parts — including RF coils, gradient amplifiers, coldheads, and power supplies — to support long-term system performance. We recommend discussing a service and parts agreement alongside your purchase to ensure continuity of care from day one.

Note: Confirm specific warranty duration and coverage with our team during your inquiry — terms are tailored to each system.

MRI installation is a multi-stage process that typically takes several weeks from delivery to clinical readiness, depending on site conditions. Before the scanner arrives, your facility needs:

• RF (Faraday cage) shielding to prevent electromagnetic interference
• Structural reinforcement to support the weight of the magnet
• Dedicated electrical supply — typically 400–600 kVA for superconducting systems
• Cooling and HVAC infrastructure
• Helium supply and quench pipe for superconducting magnets

Agito Medical provides site preparation guidance as part of the purchasing process and works with your technical team to ensure the installation environment is ready before delivery. We coordinate logistics across Europe, including specialised magnet transport, craning, and customs documentation where required.
