Philips Zenition 10 is designed to address high patient throughput by providing speed and efficiency. It also provides the flexibility to accommodate the requirements of trauma, orthopedics, and other areas of surgery. Thus, the above factors help to boost the market.
Investments by Government and Private Organizations Fuel its Demand in the Global Market
Government plays an important role in purchasing, pricing, and distributing medical devices globally. Governments undertake various initiatives to develop healthcare infrastructure to provide safe and cost-effective medical products to the public. The funding by government bodies also helps in opening new facilities. Also, implementing regulations that comply with imports and exports is expected to help generate revenue for the market.
For instance, in May 2023, the United Kingdom Government funded £2.3 billion into 160 new community diagnostic centers to reduce pressure on the NHS and improve patient care. It is expected to provide over 500,000 additional checkups, imaging, and scans a year.
Additionally, in March 2023, Synaptive Medical Inc., a global medical technology innovator in Canada, secured a USD $40 million investment from Export Development Canada (EDC) to accelerate surgical, imaging, and data technologies. The $40 million investment is to develop and expand access to Canadian-made surgical robotics, MRI, and data platforms for medical imaging and operating rooms.
Product Recalls Of Medical Imaging Equipment Will Hamper The Global Medical Imaging Equipment Market Growth
The global medical imaging market has witnessed major product recalls in the past few years. Product recalls occur when a product defect could affect or harm the consumer, hampers a company's reputation, and hinders market growth. An increasing number of such instances result in inaccuracy errors and some major instances of product recall witnessed in the medical imaging market.
For instance, on 26 May 2022, Abbott Medical Recalled 4,800 Dragonfly OpStar Imaging Catheters in the U.S. Additionally, in February 2023, GE HealthCare recalled some of its nuclear medicine imaging systems that could cause serious injury or death. It pertains to GE’s Nuclear Medicine 600 and 800 Series systems, used for detecting and diagnosing cancer, and neurological disorders.
Segment Analysis
The global medical imaging market is segmented based on product, application, end users, and region.
X-rays from the Product Segment Accounted for Approximately 37.5% of the Global Medical Imaging Market Share
The X-ray segment has the most significant share of the medical imaging equipment market due to the system's versatility and convenience. An X-ray is a noninvasive medical imaging test that helps physicians diagnose and treat medical conditions. X-rays diagnose skeletal systems, oral cavities, lungs, breast, digestive systems, and ingested objects. The growth in the X-ray segment is mainly due to its cost-effectiveness
For instance, in July 2022, Shimadzu Corporation introduced a New Type of Mobile X-ray System Outside of Japan, accommodating a Wide Range of Needs for Mobile X-ray Systems. This system incorporates digital radiography (DR) and this Mobile X-ray system provides diagnostic imaging and can travel to patient rooms, operating rooms, and emergency areas.
For instance, on August 02, 2022, GE Healthcare launched its most advanced fixed X-ray system called the next-generation Definium 656 HD. The Definium 656 HD, featuring the Intelligent Workflow Suite, is a versatile and digital radiographic system powered by GE’s FlashPad HD high-resolution detectors and the latest Helix 2.2 advanced image processing software.
Geographical Penetration
North America Accounted for Approximately 38.4% of the Market Share in 2022
North America has maintained a significant proportion of the medical imaging market in recent years, and this trend is anticipated to continue throughout the forecast period due to factors such as rising product launches, healthcare expenditure, and research and developments in medical imaging equipment.
For instance, in August 2023, GE HealthCare launched the handheld ultrasound device Vscan Air SL. The dual-headed probe of Vscan Air SL enables clinicians to access sector and linear arrays on the same device that is capable of facilitating rapid vascular and cardiac assessments of patients.
Competitive Landscape
The major global players in the market include Koninklijke Philips N.V, GE Healthcare, Shimadzu Corporation, Toshiba Medical Systems Inc., Ziehm Imaging Inc., Varian Medical Sytems, Aribex Corporation, Fujifilm Holdings Corporation, Siemens Healthcare, Hitachi Ltd. among others.
COVID-19 Impact Analysis
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the medical imaging market. During the height of the pandemic, many healthcare systems were overwhelmed, and non-urgent medical procedures and screenings were postponed or canceled. This led to delays in medical imaging device research and product launches. Clinical trials are vital for developing new treatments and improving outcomes in the medical imaging market.
However, the pandemic disrupted the conduct of clinical trials, with many sites temporarily halting enrollment or modifying protocols to prioritize patient safety. This has led to delays in the completion of trials and the availability of new therapies. Moreover, the focus of research and development efforts shifted during the pandemic, with a significant emphasis on developing vaccines and treatments for COVID-19. Therefore, owing to the above factors, the medical imaging market is expected to be moderately affected over the forecast period.
