How Much Do Mri Techs Get Paid?

ok, so i got screwed and went to a school that was limited x-ray tech, but didnt find out until i was 75% done with the school year. i will be done in july, and was thinking of something with better pay, but in a way related to the field.
i was thinking about being a MRI technician. does anyone know how much they get paid? like an average salary? how is the demand for jobs?
not sure if this matters but i live in southern Ca.

    Those limited tech programs really screw their students, don’t they? And they charge an arm and a leg! I am sorry that you found yourself in this situation. I am unsure about the average salary for a MRI technologist, who is not also ARRT licensed. I have never worked in a facility which uses MRI techs who are not RTs.
    However, the American Society of Radiologic Technologists just did a large salary survey, in 2007. You can see how much a RT, with MRI licensing averaged, per year, in your state here:https://www.asrt.org/media/pdf/research/…
    The average salary in CA was $83,145.
