The Orthopedics Medical Imaging Market Is Expected To Reach USD 7282.20 million by 2025

 

Orthopedic medical imaging enables doctors to examine the internal structure of the body non-invasively to aid in the diagnosis of a medical condition. Medical imaging devices detect and monitor diseases or injuries by generating images of the patient's internal anatomic structures.

These devices are used as an informational tool to assist physicians in diagnosing disease and monitoring treatment response. Orthopaedic medical imaging provides safe, effective, and high-quality imaging, which is a critical parameter for doctors to use in making medical decisions, potentially reducing the need for surgical interventions.

The global orthopedic medical imaging market was worth USD 5039.40 million in 2018 and is expected to reach USD 7282.20 million by 2025, with a CAGR of 5.4 per cent during the forecast period. The global orthopedics medical imaging market the report is divided into product, application, end-user, and regional and country levels.

The growing number of cases of bone fracture trauma caused by a fall, a car accident, or a sports injury necessitates prompt medical intervention, which is provided by an orthopaedic medical imaging system. According to the National Trauma Institute, traumatic injury was the leading cause of death worldwide in 2014, accounting for approximately 29.1 per cent of all road injuries.

Furthermore, the rise in orthopaedic disorders and the growing geriatric population are expected to drive market growth. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2013, approximately 28.2 per cent of the global population aged 60 and above suffered from osteoarthritis. However, a shortage of skilled radiologists and rising clinical trial costs are limiting the market growth.

Furthermore, despite the high cost of the instruments, the demand for medical imaging systems will remain high, as it is an important and recommended first step in the diagnosis of orthopaedic problems, providing a better growth opportunity to the orthopedic medical imaging market during the forecast period.

Fluoroscopy, x-ray, positron emission tomography (PET), EOS imaging systems, conventional radiography, arthrography, ultrasound, Scintigraphy (radionuclide bone scan), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA or DXA), and CT-scanner are the product categories in the global orthopedics medical imaging market. The market is divided into chronic disorders, bone tumours, acute injuries, and other applications based on application. The market is divided into four segments based on end-users: ambulatory surgery centres (ASCS), radiology centres, hospitals, and emergency care centres.

North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Rest of the World are the regions covered. The orthopaedics medical imaging market is divided into several countries, including the United States, Mexico, Canada, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, China, Japan, India, South East Asia, the Gulf Cooperation Council, and Africa.

GE Healthcare, Hitachi, Philips Healthcare, Siemens Healthineers, Toshiba Medical Systems, Canon, Carl-Zeiss Meditec AG, Accuray Incorporated, Fujifilm Holdings Corporation, Hologic, Carestream Health, and others are among the global orthopedics medical imaging market players.
