Diagnostic Imaging for South Pasadena Residents

South Pasadena is one of the few Pinellas communities where patients have a genuine choice between hospital-based radiology and an independent outpatient center — and where that choice makes a real difference in what you pay. Advanced Medical Imaging serves South Pasadena from two nearby centers in opposite directions. Our dedicated 3T MRI facility at 2201 Central Avenue in St. Petersburg is roughly 10 to 12 minutes east: Pasadena Avenue North to Central Avenue, then east. Our Seminole flagship at 9555 Seminole Blvd is about 15 minutes north: Pasadena Avenue North to Park Street North, continuing to Bay Pines Boulevard (SR 693) and Seminole Blvd. For most South Pasadena patients that means advanced 3T MRI in one direction and the full range of imaging in the other. We care for patients across the Pasadena Avenue corridor — residents of the Pasadena Yacht & Country Club area, Bay Island and Broadwater, and the condominium communities lining Boca Ciega Bay — as well as neighbors just outside the city line in Bear Creek, Jungle Terrace, Pasadena Estates, and the Bay Pines area. Because South Pasadena skews heavily toward retirees, snowbirds, and year-round waterfront residents, our most common referrals from this area are spine and joint MRIs for degenerative back, hip, knee, and shoulder pain, DEXA bone density scans, screening 3D mammograms with computer-aided detection, abdominal and thyroid ultrasounds, echocardiograms, coronary calcium scoring, and low-dose lung cancer screening CT. Because we are a freestanding outpatient imaging center rather than a hospital radiology department, our self-pay pricing is typically up to 75% less than hospital rates for the identical study — hospital departments add facility fees that we simply do not charge. Most major insurance plans are accepted in-network. Self-pay patients do not need a referral for most exams, every price is published up front with no surprise facility fee, and reports reach your South Pasadena, Gulfport, or St. Petersburg physician within 48 hours. Service is available in English and Spanish, and both centers offer free ground-level parking — no hospital deck, no shuttle, no valet.

Familiar to South Pasadena patients

  • About 10–12 minutes to our St. Petersburg 3T MRI center via Pasadena Ave N and Central Ave
  • About 15 minutes to our Seminole flagship via Park St N and Bay Pines Blvd (SR 693)
  • Convenient for the Pasadena Ave corridor, Pasadena Yacht & Country Club, Bay Island and Broadwater
  • Easy stop before or after the Corey Causeway (SR 693) run to St. Pete Beach
  • Also serving Bear Creek, Jungle Terrace, Pasadena Estates and the Bay Pines area
  • Free ground-level parking at both centers — no parking garages or hospital decks
I was quoted a hospital price for my back MRI that made me put it off for months. AMI's Central Avenue center was ten minutes from my condo, told me the price before I booked, and my doctor had the report in two days.

Common Questions from South Pasadena Patients

How do I get to AMI from South Pasadena?+

Both centers are a short drive. For 3T MRI, take Pasadena Avenue North to Central Avenue and head east to our St. Petersburg center at 2201 Central Ave — typically about 10 to 12 minutes. For all other imaging, take Pasadena Avenue North to Park Street North, continue to Bay Pines Boulevard (SR 693) and on to our Seminole flagship at 9555 Seminole Blvd — typically about 15 minutes. Both locations have free ground-level parking directly at the door.

Which AMI location is closer to South Pasadena?+

Our St. Petersburg center at 2201 Central Ave is the closer of the two, at roughly 10 to 12 minutes. It is a dedicated 3T MRI facility, so it is the right choice for any MRI — including whole-body screening, NeuroQuant brain volumetrics, and 3T prostate MRI. If you need CT, 3D mammography, ultrasound, DEXA bone density, X-Ray, or an echocardiogram, book our Seminole flagship about 15 minutes north. Call (727) 398-5999 and we will route you to the right center for your exam.

Is an outpatient center like AMI really cheaper than a hospital radiology department?+

For elective outpatient imaging, yes — typically up to 75% less. The difference is the facility fee. Hospital radiology departments bill a hospital facility charge on top of the scan and the radiologist read; freestanding outpatient centers like AMI do not. Our transparent self-pay MRI pricing starts at $295, X-Ray is $50 per body part, DEXA bone density is $75, and our whole-body MRI screening is $1,499 — each published up front with no add-on facility fee. Most major insurance plans are also accepted in-network.

Can I get same-day imaging if my doctor needs it urgently?+

Same-day X-Ray and CT slots are routinely available at our Seminole location. MRI is typically scheduled within 24 to 48 hours, and ultrasound the same week. If your physician needs an urgent stat read, we can usually accommodate — call us at (727) 398-5999 and we will coordinate directly with their office.

I am a seasonal resident in South Pasadena. Can you work with my out-of-state doctor?+

Yes — we care for a large number of snowbird and seasonal patients. Bring any prior imaging on CD or USB and our radiologists will compare it side by side with your new study, which matters most for anything being followed over time. We send the final report to any physician you name, in Florida or out of state, typically within 48 hours. Self-pay patients do not need a referral for most exams, so you do not have to establish with a new local doctor first just to get scanned.

Do you offer bone density and whole-body screening for South Pasadena patients?+

Yes. DEXA bone density scanning is available at our Seminole flagship for $75 and is one of our most requested exams from the South Pasadena area given the local population. Self-pay whole-body MRI screening is available at our nearby St. Petersburg 3T center for $1,499 — a single comprehensive scan reviewed by a radiologist, priced transparently at a fraction of comparable hospital-billed exams. Call us and we will explain exactly what each scan does and does not cover before you book.
