Executive Summary
According to this report titled, 'Medical/Diagnostic Imaging Market,' the medical imaging market size was valued at $38.5 Billion in 2020, and is estimated to reach $68.8 Billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 5.8% from 2021 to 2030. Medical imaging refers to several different technologies that are used to view the human body in order to diagnose, monitor, or treat medical conditions. Each type of technology gives different information about the area of the body being studied or treated, related to possible disease, injury, or the effectiveness of medical treatment.Factors that drive the growth of the medical/diagnostic imaging market analysis include rise in number of hospitals and increase in prevalence of pneumonia. According to World Health Organization (WHO), in 2019, it was reported that pneumonia killed 740, 180 children under the age of 5, accounting for 14% of all deaths of children under five years old. Furthermore, increase in R&D activity in 3D medical imaging technology contribute in the medical imaging market growth. In addition, the increase in need for medical imaging surge the growth of medical imaging market.
The medical imaging market share is segmented on the basis of product type, application, and region.
By product type, the market is divided into MRI systems, ultrasound imaging systems, X-ray imaging systems, CT scanners, nuclear imaging systems, and mammography systems. The X-ray imaging systems segment dominated the market in 2020, and this trend is expected to continue during the diagnostic imaging market forecast period, owing to advancements in X-ray technology and innovation in technology in medical imaging.
By application, the market is divided into obstetrics/gynecology (ob/gyn) health, orthopedics &musculoskeletal, neuro & spine, cardiovascular & thoracic, general imaging, and breast health. The cardiovascular and thoracicsegment dominated the market in 2020, and this trend is expected to continue during the forecast period due tosurge in prevalence of cardiovascular disease, increase in geriatric population, and rise in sedentary lifestyle.
What is the IMPACT OF COVID-19 Pandemic on the Medical/Diagnostic Imaging Market?
- The COVID-19 outbreak had a negative impact on the growth of the medical imaging market size as most hospitals were not operating due to COVID-19 and the ongoing lockdowns in many countries. The spread of COVID-19 led to major public health issues. However, a huge number of clinics andhospitals across the globe were restructured to increase the hospital capacity to provide better healthcare facility.
