Analysts' Viewpoint

Experts highlight that the surge in chronic diseases-cancer, cardiovascular ailments, diabetes-and an aging global population are driving demand for diagnostic imaging services. The fusion of hardware miniaturization, artificial intelligence, and advanced computer vision has accelerated the development of portable and remote‐reading solutions. Service providers are aggressively adopting AI‐enabled platforms to streamline scan protocols, reduce costs, and deliver rapid, high‐resolution insights, positioning the market for sustained growth.

Market Drivers

High Prevalence of Chronic Diseases

Sedentary lifestyles and demographic shifts have led to a rise in cancer, cardiovascular disease, obesity, and diabetes.

Older adults undergo diagnostic imaging at more than twice the rate of younger cohorts, fueling service volumes.

Favorable Reimbursement Policies

Governments in the U.S., Western Europe, Japan, Australia, and China allocate substantial budgets to cover imaging procedures.

In the U.S., Medicare Part B reimburses over 400 million imaging services annually, with planned payment increases for interventional radiology.

Technological Advancements in Computed Tomography

Introduction of multi‐slice CT systems (80-640 slices) and spectral imaging has enhanced scan speed and image clarity.

AI‐driven reconstruction algorithms are reducing radiation dose while preserving diagnostic accuracy.

Rising Cancer Screening Rates

Oncology remains the largest application segment, driven by growing cancer incidence and routine use of CT, MRI, and PET scans for detection and treatment monitoring.

Expansion of Hospital‐Based Services

Hospitals account for the largest end‐user share, offering comprehensive imaging portfolios and attracting high patient inflows.

Diagnostic centers are also growing through joint ventures and acquisitions, creating one‐stop imaging hubs.
