Global digital x-rays market to reach USD 34.50B by 2034
The market size for digital x-rays is estimated to be around US$ 14.40 billion in 2024. It is projected to exhibit a CAGR of 9.10% over the forecast period, with an estimated market size of US$ 34.50 billion in 2034.
The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases such as diabetes, obesity, and hypertension in developed economies has led to the requirement for frequent diagnostic imaging for better treatment. Healthcare providers, both public and private, are becoming more aware of the benefits of digital x-rays as compared to traditional imaging methodologies. This growing awareness has led to the integration of artificial intelligence in radiography and imaging systems for automated analysis and interpretation.
he rising geriatric population in countries such as Japan, China, Germany, etc., requires enhanced diagnostic capabilities. Significant investments by government bodies in the healthcare sector to improve the existing infrastructure in countries like India, the United States, and China have further fueled the demand for digital x-rays. The cost-effectiveness and long-term saving abilities of digital x-ray methodologies have also increased their adoption in healthcare facilities, hospitals, clinics, etc.
Improved patient comfort and safety with lower radiation exposure make digital x-rays a preferred choice for both healthcare providers and patients. Digital x-rays are also growing among specialized facilities focused on medical imaging services, such as MRI, CT scans, and x-rays. Beyond medical applications, digital x-ray technology is used in industrial settings for non-destructive testing, quality control, and inspection of materials, welds, and components.
