It's worth keeping in mind that the quality of Xray and MRI machines vary greatly and the facility doing the scans typically won't be upfront with what machines they're using. You are the only person who is ever going to advocate for the treatment you get so you'll need to be very firm but polite to get this information.
Depends on the type of machine/imaging to be done. For MRIs, you typically want higher Tesla values for better detail. There are also other types of imaging tech too like DTI or functional MRIs depending on what you want to look at.

"and the facility doing the scans typically won't be upfront with what machines they're using."
All one has to do is ask. I've even had scheduling assistants ask me what power of machine the doctor wanted.
How i would i be able to differentiate the quality of the machines?

In Eastern Europe they often advertise the make and model (and some weird specs like Teslas) on their web site, if it's a good one
Teslas aren't really a weird spec. In general they correspond to a better level of detail, which could be necessary for certain imaging/conditions.
