Le Gouvernement a réduit de 60% le tarif subventionné de l'Imagerie par résonance magnétique (IRM) en avril 2024, le faisant passer de 100 000 à 40 000 francs CFA.

Le ministère de la Santé enregistre déjà 2 084 IRM réalisées au premier semestre 2026, 3 916 en 2025 et 295 IRM en 2024.

Derrière ces milliers d'examens, ce sont surtout des patients qui ont pu mieux comprendre leur maladie, confirmer un diagnostic et dans certains cas, engager plus rapidement le traitement adapté.
