CT scan is less than 100$ in most places in India. It could go up to 200$ in some hospitals and is considered expensive by the patients.

And ultrasound is 10-20$. I find it seriously expensive in US. One thing is the health insurance or public backed healthcare is not widely adopted and patients still pay from their own pockets in India so charging exorbitant amounts is a big no-no.
