Analyst Review
Direct conversion of transmitted X-ray photons into a digital image, utilizing an array of solid-state detectors, including amorphous selenium or silicon, followed by computer processing and display of the image, is known as digital radiology (DR). Mobile DR or portable DR systems are moved between rooms for imaging and are utilized for both fixed base room installations and mobile or portable DR systems. Benefits of digital X-ray equipment aided their acceptance, owing to speed, accuracy, and rapid processing times, allowing for substantially higher patient screening numbers than previously possible.
Factor such as technological developments is a critical driver in the digital radiology market's growth. Digital radiology systems are in high demand, due to factors such as image quality, acquisition time, portability, detector form, and software. Benefits such as ability to analyze massive amounts of data and evaluate patients instantly are driving demand for improved digital radiology equipment. Therefore, digital radiology equipment are more expensive and need significant upfront investments, which raises the procedure cost for patients. This has an impact on the rate at which new systems are adopted, particularly in developing nations. In addition, one of the most promising areas of health innovation is use of artificial intelligence (AI), particularly in medical imaging. In this sense, many ongoing R&D activities aided the industry.
In addition, North America accounted for largest share of digital radiology market, followed by Europe. The large share of North America can be attributed to the surge in healthcare settings shifting from computed radiography-based X-Ray systems to direct radiography -based X-Ray systems.
The global digital radiology market was valued at $3,942.72 million in 2020, and is projected to reach $8,319.38 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 6.6%.
Dental imaging is the leading application of the market owing to surge in dental procedures among the children as well as the adults.
Growth in cardiac, orthopedic, dental disorders, advancement in technology and adaptation of better healthcare facilities fuel the growth of market.
North America is the largest regional market for digital radiology owing to the rising number of patients suffering from chronic diseases, the presence of key players, and availability of standard healthcare infrastructure.
Agfa-Gevaert group, Cannon Inc., Detection Technology, Fujifilm, General Electrics, Medtronics, Koninklijke Phillips, Samsung,Hitachi, and Varex Imaging corporation are the top companies of digital radiology market.
