The mobile imaging services market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• In recent times, there has been significant growth in the market size of mobile imaging services. It is projected to rise from $19.13 billion in 2024 to reach $20.2 billion in 2025, indicating a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.6%.
The impressive growth in the past years can be linked to factors such as the aging population, cost-effectiveness, emergency medical services, disease screening initiatives, management of chronic diseases, and regulatory structures.
The mobile imaging services market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• Over the coming years, the mobile imaging services market is predicted to witness substantial growth, potentially reaching a value of $27.6 billion in 2029, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1%.
This anticipated growth during the forecast period may be a result of factors such as the enhancement of rural healthcare, telehealth services expansion, global health schemes, control of infectious diseases, and point-of-care testing. Key trends expected to shape this market during the forecast period include the incorporation of artificial intelligence (AI), heightened data security, technological progression, remote monitoring, and the use of point-of-care ultrasound.
The escalating occurrence of chronic illnesses like cancer, cardiovascular, and neurological disorders anticipates fueling the expansion of the mobile imaging services market within the projected timeframe. Chronic ailments are long-lasting health challenges without a cure. These conditions persist for over a year and constantly call for medical intervention or otherwise hinder daily life activities. Vaccines or medicines generally cannot prevent or cure these diseases. Around the world, chronic diseases are the leading causes of mortality and disability, with rates of these conditions increasingly spreading across all regions and impacting all social and economic classes. Mobile imaging services enable healthcare providers to execute various essential screenings utilizing imaging technologies like X-Ray, EKG, and ultrasound. For example, according to United Nations, the percentage of total global deaths due to chronic diseases is projected to rise to 70% by 2030. Hence, the surging occurrence of chronic illnesses stimulates the growth of the mobile imaging services market.
