The radiology services market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• In the past few years, the radiology services market has been expanding at a fast pace. The market, which was valued at $7.31 billion in 2024, is projected to reach $8.19 billion in 2025, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.0%. The significant growth during the historic period can be associated with factors such as the digitization of imaging, development of modalities, transition to PACs and RIS systems, focus on subspecialties, and an increased emphasis on quality standards and accreditation.
The Radiology Services market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The market size for radiology services is anticipated to experience swift expansion in the upcoming years. It is projected to reach $13.13 billion by 2029, progressing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.5%.
The upswing during the forecast period can be credited to the adoption of collaborative healthcare patterns, improved emphasis on patient-oriented methods, focus on preventive healthcare, demand for personalized medicine, and incorporation of artificial intelligence. Key trends during the forecast period comprise technological advancements, telemedicine and remote imaging, customized and precision medicine, the need for quicker service response times, and the amalgamation of artificial intelligence and machine learning.
The radiology services market is experiencing substantial growth due to the increasing occurrence of diseases linked to old age. With diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, arthritis, and dementia becoming more prevalent with age, utilisation of radiological tests like MRI and computed tomography for diagnosis is on the rise. For instance, the Alzheimer’s Association, a non-profit US-based organization focused on raising awareness and improving Alzheimer’s treatments, reported that over 6 million US citizens were affected by Alzheimer's in 2022. This figure is predicted to soar to 13 million by 2050, with 1 in 3 senior citizens passing away with Alzheimer’s or another form of dementia. Alzheimer’s related costs reached $321 billion in 2022 and are anticipated to reach $1 trillion by 2050. Consequently, the surge in age-related illnesses is fueling progress in the radiology services market.
