> I wonder what's up with all those MRI shortages in some places?

In Austria it's largely because the insurer wants people not to do MRIs unless necessary. So they typically sens you to an doctor first to confirm you need one, the approve from the insurer and then you get to wait a bit.

There are plenty of MRI machines in Austria because the place I got mine also takea publicly insured patients.
