Medical Imaging Market Trends and Drivers

Medical imaging market is primarily driven by surge in the demand for early-detection tools and equipment, growing prevalence of chronic diseases in geriatric population and advancements in medical imaging techniques. People who are aged 60 years and above are more prone to pulmonary disease, neck pain, diabetes, and osteoarthritis, as compared to younger people due to lack of physical exercise and poor nutrition. As per World Health Organization’s (WHO) estimates, globally, the number of people older than 60 years, exceeded number of children aged below 5 years. And the proportion of population who are aged 60 years and more is likely to double between the period 2015 and 2050. As people are becoming more aged, they are likely to experience such diseases. Thus, the usage of medical imaging tools like X-rays, Ultrasound and CT scanner, will increase in future, as consumers are expected to go through these procedures for diagnosing these diseases, which in turn will create lucrative growth opportunities for medical imaging market in the coming years.

Favourable reimbursement policies of government for medicines, which is encouraging consumers to go through diagnostic procedures, coupled with growing demand for medical imaging from hospitals and increasing adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) for automating quantification and identification process, are some of the factors supplementing the growth medical diagnostic imaging market. AI in medical imaging market, finds its application in diagnosing diseases and detecting Fractures and musculoskeletal injuries, thus promoting early intervention. Additionally, 3D medical imaging market is driven by growing demand for optical images and growing acceptance for these devices by consumers. Advancements in medical imaging systems and analysis software and increasing public-private sector investments in medical imaging solutions, are projected to have a positive impact on medical image analysis software market. Market players are focusing on expanding their production facilities in developing countries. For instance, in April 2022, Siemens Healthier expanded its manufacturing facility in India with the launch of its new production line of CT scanners.
