The contrast media injectors market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
•In recent times, a significant growth has been observed in the market size of contrast media injectors. The market is projected to expand from $1.68 billion in 2024 to $1.79 billion in 2025, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.6%.
Factors contributing to growth during the historic period include a rise in chronic disease cases, the increment in diagnostic imaging procedures, preference for minimally invasive procedures, growth in healthcare infrastructure, and an increase in the aging population.
The contrast media injectors market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The market for contrast media injectors is anticipated to witness substantial growth over the next few years, soaring to a valuation of "$2.53 billion in 2029 at an impressive compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.1%.
Factors contributing to this expansion during the forecast period include an increase in interventional radiology procedures, a surge in cancer incidences, emphasis on patient safety and comfort, broadening of healthcare services globally, and regulatory support and compliance. Key trends that will emerge during the forecast period encapsulate enhancement and connectivity of automated systems, the emergence of dual-head injectors, advancements in injector technology, a heightened focus on patient safety, an uptick in interventional radiology procedures, and superior imaging techniques and modalities.
The escalation in incidences of cancer and cardiovascular disease (CVD) is projected to fuel the expansion of the contrast media injectors market. Cancer results from uncontrolled cell growth that metastasizes to other parts of the body, while cardiovascular disease refers to conditions impacting the heart or blood vessels. The utilization of contrast media injectors is crucial in diagnostic imaging to augment image clarity, patient safety, and enhance blood circulation and tissue perfusion. For example, the American Cancer Society, a leading US-based nonprofit organization engaged in cancer advocacy, reported an increase in cancer cases from 1,898,160 in 2021 to 1,958,310 in January 2023, indicating a 3.16% surge. Consequently, the rise in cancer and cardiovascular disease (CVD) is stimulating the growth of the contrast media injectors market.
