Global Orthopedic Imaging Equipment Market Report 2024

The orthopedic imaging equipment market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $9.72 billion in 2023 to $10.24 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.4%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to factors such as a burgeoning aging population, a rise in orthopedic conditions, increased healthcare expenditure, and the growing prevalence of sports and fitness trends.

The orthopedic imaging equipment market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $12.73 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.6%. Looking ahead to the forecast period, growth is expected to be fueled by regulatory initiatives, the increasing prevalence of orthopedic disorders, expanding awareness and screening programs, rising healthcare expenditure, and the broadening scope of applications. Notable trends anticipated in the forecast period include the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into orthopedic imaging practices, a shift towards 3D imaging technologies, heightened focus on radiation reduction measures, advancements in miniaturization and portability of imaging equipment, and the proliferation of telemedicine and remote imaging services.

The uptick in the frequency of road accidents is anticipated to drive the expansion of the orthopedic imaging equipment market in the foreseeable future. Road accidents encompass any incidents transpiring on roadways involving vehicles, pedestrians, cyclists, or other road users, resulting in property damage, injury, or loss of life. The escalating number of accidents stems from various factors, including distracted driving, speeding, impaired driving, deficient infrastructure, and human error, exacerbated by societal shifts such as urbanization and technological distractions. Orthopedic imaging equipment plays a crucial role in road accident scenarios by delivering detailed imagery of bone fractures, joint dislocations, and soft tissue injuries, facilitating precise diagnosis and treatment planning, thereby enhancing patient outcomes and expediting recovery. For example, as reported by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in February 2023, there were 42,915 fatalities in traffic accidents involving motor vehicles in 2021, marking a 10.5% increase from the 38,824 fatalities recorded in 2020. Fatalities in multi-vehicle accidents and urban settings surged by 16% in 2021 compared to the previous year. Consequently, the mounting incidence of road accidents is propelling the growth of the orthopedic imaging equipment market.

Prominent companies operating in the orthopedic imaging equipment market are directing their efforts towards the development of advanced technologies, such as augmented reality (AR) guidance systems, to enhance the precision and efficacy of orthopedic procedures. AR guidance systems integrate real-time imaging with digital overlays, furnishing surgeons with detailed visual guidance during surgical interventions. For instance, in March 2022, Pixee Medical, a France-based developer of computer-assisted surgery tools, unveiled its Knee+ AR computer-assisted orthopedic solution in the US. This groundbreaking technology represents the inaugural augmented reality (AR) navigation system tailored for total knee arthroplasty, designed to assist orthopedic surgeons in pinpointing implant locations during knee arthroplasty procedures through augmented reality glasses that ascertain the 3D coordinates of surgical instruments.

In August 2023, MXR Imaging Inc., a US-based provider of diagnostic imaging equipment sales, completed the acquisition of Advanced Imaging Group for an undisclosed sum. This strategic move positions MXR to bolster customer relationships by offering a more comprehensive and robust overall solution encompassing MRI, CT, PET CT, X-ray, and Ultrasound imaging modalities. Advanced Imaging Group specializes in the development of orthopedic imaging solutions and equipment, augmenting MXR's portfolio with innovative offerings in this segment.

Orthopedic imaging equipment comprises specialized medical devices designed to capture detailed images of the musculoskeletal system, encompassing bones, joints, and soft tissues. These tools play a crucial role in diagnosing injuries, diseases, or conditions affecting the skeletal system, aiding clinicians in effective management and treatment.

The main types of orthopedic imaging equipment are drill guides, guide tubs, implant holders, custom camps, distracters, and screwdrivers. Drill guides, for instance, assist in accurately positioning and guiding the drilling of holes for screws or implants during orthopedic surgeries. These tools utilize various technologies such as x-ray systems, computed tomography (CT) scanners, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems, electron optical system (EOS) imaging systems, ultrasound, and nuclear imaging systems. They find application across a range of indications including acute injuries, sports injuries, trauma cases, chronic disorders such as osteoarthritis and osteoporosis, as well as degenerative joint diseases such as prolapsed disc. End-users of orthopedic imaging equipment include hospitals, radiology centers, emergency care facilities, and ambulatory surgical centers.
