Global Nuclear Imaging Market Size (2023 to 2028)

The size of the global nuclear imaging market is estimated to value USD 21.54 billion by 2028 from USD 14.08 billion in 2023, growing at a CAGR of 8.87% during the forecast period.

The global nuclear imaging market growth is primarily driven by factors such as an increase in the prevalence of cancer globally and rising cardiac alignments. Hybrid imaging includes two or more modalities to form a new technique; hence hybrid modalities replace the standalone modalities it is expected to propel the market growth. Personalized medicine is an emerging practice of medicine; it includes an individual’s genetic profile to lead to the decision related to prevention, hence increasing focussing on personalized treatments is expected to boost the market growth. 

Moreover, investments by government and private organizations are partnerships to modernize diagnostic imaging centers. Besides, technological advancements and rising diagnostic applications for various diseases will boost the market growth. Researchers, scientists, and technologists bringing systems into clinical practice are considered to expand the market growth over the period. It is proved that diagnosing with nuclear imaging techniques impacts patient management for monitoring tumors and their drug response.

Nuclear imaging equipment pricing and installation require large capital, and investments cannot be affordable by the hospitals in rural areas, which is considered the major restraining factor for market growth. Healthcare facilities in developing countries such as India cannot afford such systems; these higher costs are coupled with the maintenance costs expected to impede market growth. Healthcare providers that purchase costly systems often depend on the reimbursement of the expenditure incurred. Still, sometimes continuous cuts in the reimbursement of diagnostic imaging scans prevent small and medium healthcare facilities from investing in advanced technological nuclear imaging modalities.

Impact of COVID-19 on the global nuclear imaging market:

SARS-COV-2, When the virus was first identified in Wuhan, China, the World health organization declared healthcare emergence. The World Health Organization (WHO) announced guidelines in order not to get affected by COVID-19. A nationwide lockdown in multiple countries had been implemented to combat COVID-19, and a ban was made on transportation. The partial shutdown of activities was made during the pandemic period.

The outbreak had mostly affected almost all sectors of the economy, including the healthcare and life sciences markets. The covid-19 epidemic has impacted the availability of resources globally. Reduced patient visits and outpatient services for other diseases negatively affected the nuclear imaging market.

It is observed that both diagnostic and therapeutic nuclear medicine procedures had declined drastically as the world focused on combat with the SARS-COV-2. It is essential to have better knowledge for medical professionals of precautionary measures to prevent the transmission of COVID-19. The factors such as extreme health risks like diabetes, hypertension, lung diseases, and chronic renal are highly vulnerable to developing COVID-19, which is held to decrease nuclear imaging procedures. However, in the later period, the market is expected to grow better for the nuclear imaging market.
