A chest X-ray in India typically costs from $15 to $30. The final price depends on the technology used, the city, and the facility type. Patients save about 78% compared to the US, where the average cost is $100. Major medical hubs like Mumbai, Delhi, and Bangalore offer various pricing options based on clinic tier.
Bookimed Expert Insight: Choosing a specialized center often provides better value than standard clinics for respiratory diagnostics. Facilities like HCG Manavata Cancer Centre use advanced imaging for over 75,000 patients annually. They were the first in their region to introduce dedicated nuclear medicine and PET-CT technology. Top hospitals like Fortis and Aster Medcity also provide free airport pickups and interpreters. This makes the diagnostic process much smoother for international patients visiting India.
