Ultrasonic Technology Market Report 2025

The ultrasonic technology market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $2.34 billion in 2024 to $2.64 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.5%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to strong economic growth in emerging markets, growth in demand from the medical sector, growth in government initiatives and the rapid industrialization and growth in manufacturing industries.

The ultrasonic technology market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.71 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the increasing prevalence of chronic illness, the increasing aging population, the growth in the retail sector and the rising public concerns related to optimal food safety and quality. Major trends in the forecast period include focus on use of artificial intelligence (ai), focus on 3d ultrasound technology, launch of compact portable ultrasound, increasing investments, product innovations and strategic partnerships and collaborations.

The anticipated growth of the ultrasonic technology market is driven by the expanding demand from the medical sector. The healthcare sector, encompassing businesses involved in medical services, equipment manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, health coverage, and other facets of healthcare provision, plays a pivotal role. In medicine, ultrasonic technology, commonly known as sonography, is extensively employed, particularly in ultrasound imaging. Moreover, ultrasound finds applications in non-destructive testing to identify concealed flaws in products and structures. As per PolicyAdvice, a notable insurance company, global healthcare spending is projected to reach $10 trillion by 2022. Exemplifying this trend, McKesson, with an annual revenue of $208.3 billion, stands as the largest healthcare firm in the United States. Consequently, the escalating demand from the medical sector significantly propels the growth of the ultrasonic technology market.

The growth of the ultrasonic technology market is further fueled by the increasing prevalence of chronic illnesses. The rising incidence of chronic diseases has led to a surge in demand for imaging tools, with ultrasound playing a crucial role in early disease detection, thereby reducing treatment costs. The frequency of chronic diseases is on the rise, resulting in elevated demand for healthcare services, including increased patient visits, hospital admissions, and surgeries. According to the National Library of Medicine, a US-based institution, the population aged 50 and older with at least one chronic disease in the USA is anticipated to surge by 99.5%, reaching 142.66 million by 2050, up from 71.522 million in 2020. Hence, the increasing prevalence of chronic illnesses is a key driver expected to propel the growth of the ultrasonic technology market in the forecast period.

A prominent trend in the ultrasound technology market is the increasing adoption of artificial intelligence (AI), revolutionizing the interpretation and utilization of medical images. AI is instrumental in converting medical images into data that is high-throughput and amenable to mining. Illustratively, in February 2023, Samsung, a South Korea-based manufacturing conglomerate, introduced the Hera W10 Elite, a women's health ultrasound system. This advanced system incorporates visualization features, AI-aided tools, and clinical applications tailored for Obstetrics and Gynecology. It offers 2D and 3D visualizations of microcirculatory and slow blood, featuring an Advanced MV (microvascular)-Flow feature and a larger organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display for improved characterization of diverse ultrasound images.

Major companies in the ultrasonic technology market are focused on developing innovative diagnostic ultrasound system solutions to enhance imaging quality, improve patient safety, and streamline workflow efficiency. These solutions involve medical imaging technologies that use high-frequency sound waves to create images of internal body structures. For example, in February 2024, FUJIFILM, a Japan-based imaging and information technology company, launched the ALOKA ARIETTA 850 Diagnostic Ultrasound System, a state-of-the-art endoscopic ultrasound technology, available at Fortis Hospital in Bengaluru. This system improves diagnostic accuracy for gastrointestinal diseases, featuring high-definition imaging and enabling minimally invasive procedures like pancreatic cyst drainage. The launch highlights FUJIFILM's commitment to advancing healthcare outcomes through innovative medical technologies, particularly in cancer staging and critical diagnoses.

In July 2024, GE HealthCare Technologies Inc., a US-based innovator in medical technology and digital solutions, acquired the clinical artificial intelligence (AI) software business from Intelligent Ultrasound for $51 million. This acquisition aims to enhance GE HealthCare's capabilities in clinical AI by integrating Intelligent Ultrasound's advanced software solutions, thereby improving diagnostic accuracy and efficiency in medical imaging for healthcare providers. Intelligent Ultrasound Group PLC is a UK-based company that specializes in ultrasound software.
