The cardiovascular ultrasound market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.45 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to focusing on preventive healthcare, global aging population, value-based healthcare initiatives. Major trends in the forecast period include advancements in imaging technology, artificial intelligence (ai) integration, point-of-care ultrasound (pocus) expansion, 3d/4d transesophageal echocardiography, telemedicine and remote monitoring, data management and connectivity.

An uptick in the number of diagnostic imaging centers is anticipated to fuel the expansion of the cardiovascular ultrasound market in the foreseeable future. These specialized healthcare facilities equipped with advanced medical imaging technologies play a pivotal role in diagnosing and monitoring various medical conditions, particularly cardiovascular diseases. Utilizing cardiovascular ultrasound, also known as echocardiography, these centers produce real-time images of the heart and its associated blood vessels, enabling healthcare practitioners to evaluate cardiac function and detect a range of cardiovascular conditions and irregularities. For instance, as of April 2022, the Department of Health and Social Care in the UK reported a functioning count of 73 community diagnostic centers, conducting an additional 30,000 tests per week. With projections indicating an expected surge to 160 centers by 2025, marking a significant growth of 119.18%, the escalating presence of diagnostic imaging centers is poised to propel the cardiovascular ultrasound market.

The rising prevalence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) is expected to fuel the growth of the cardiovascular ultrasound market. CVD encompasses a range of heart and blood vessel disorders, and cardiovascular ultrasound, or echocardiography, serves as a non-invasive, essential imaging technique for diagnosing, evaluating, and managing these conditions. For instance, data published by the British Heart Foundation in September 2024 indicates that approximately 7.6 million people in the UK are affected by heart and circulatory diseases, with 4 million males and 3.6 million females living with these conditions. CVD accounts for around 27% of all UK deaths, leading to over 170,000 fatalities annually, or roughly 480 deaths daily - equivalent to one every three minutes. Consequently, the growing incidence of cardiovascular disease is contributing to the expansion of the cardiovascular ultrasound market.

Prominent companies in the cardiovascular ultrasound market are dedicated to advancing handheld ultrasound imaging systems, exemplified by innovations such as the Vscan Air SL, to deliver reliable services to customers. The Vscan Air SL handheld ultrasound imaging system represents a portable device that employs ultrasound waves to generate images of internal body structures when connected to a tablet or smartphone. Notably, in August 2023, GE HealthCare Technologies Inc., a key player in medical technology, introduced the Vscan Air SL. This portable and wireless ultrasound imaging system facilitates rapid cardiac and vascular assessments, expediting diagnosis and treatment decisions. The system's integration of SignalMax and XDclear imaging performance technologies enables high penetration, resolution, and sensitivity levels using single crystal transducer technology. The latest SL version features a sector-phased array transducer, enabling swift cardiac evaluations. Additionally, the Vscan Air app, compatible with Android and iOS smartphones, ensures clinicians can readily employ Vscan Air for every patient assessment.

Cardiovascular ultrasound, a noninvasive diagnostic method, utilizes high-frequency sound waves to generate images of the heart and its associated blood vessels. This imaging approach provides medical practitioners with a detailed view of the heart's chambers, valves, walls, and blood vessels, facilitating a comprehensive assessment of its structure and performance.

The primary types of cardiovascular ultrasounds include transthoracic echocardiography, transesophageal echocardiography, fetal echocardiography, and others. Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is a non-invasive diagnostic procedure employing ultrasonic waves to create images of the heart and its connected blood arteries. Various technologies, such as 2D, 3D or 4D, and Doppler, are utilized, with display options including black or white (b/w) and color. End users of cardiovascular ultrasound include hospitals, diagnostic centers, ambulatory care centers, and others.
