MEA Medical Image Analysis Software Market

MEA Medical Image Analysis Software Market Size (2023 to 2028)

The medical image analysis software market in the Middle East & Africa was worth USD 0.22 billion in 2023. The market value is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.11% between 2023 to 2028 and be worth USD 0.32 billion by 2028.

The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases like cancer, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and other across the MEA is majorly driving the growth of the medical image analysis software market in the MEA. Every year, nearly 1.4 million people die in Middle East Africa due to CVDs. Cardiac imaging plays a significant role in diagnosing cardiovascular diseases. In some cases, many images regarding the issue may need to be clarified for the healthcare provider. Studying all those repeated and different images also sometimes leads to the wrong assumption. To avoid these situations, the healthcare provider uses medical image analyzer software that provides clear information by calculating all the images provided to the software system. Due to the increasing mortality rate owing to various types of cancers such as breast cancer, lung cancer, prostate cancer, etc., research in the region is focusing on developing software to accurately predict the issue in the cancer patient for further treatment. Some of the most used medical image devices are X-ray, computer tomography (CT), ultrasound, and magnetic resonance imaging. These devices produce images that can be further sent to the image analysis software, which provides information and helps with the treatment.

The growing number of technical advancements in diagnostic image modalities and image management software is further fuelling the growth of the medical image analysis software market in MEA. This software uses advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning to classify the images based on their respective features to help give a clear view of the problem in the body for further treatment. In addition, manufacturers also include deep learning techniques in the software to give accurate information to the healthcare provider about the images.

On the other hand, the high cost of the software is majorly hampering the growth of the medical image analysis software market in MEA. In addition, lack of skilled professionals, lack of reimbursement policies, lack of awareness about the software, lack of infrastructural facilities, less budget for hospitals, and long time for approval of novel software are the other factors that hamper the market growth in this region. In addition, software security issues also challenge market growth.
