Medical Imaging Workstations Market Trends

• Technological advancements in imaging systems to boost the market growth

The growth is attributed to technological advancements in imaging systems that require sophisticated operating units and medical imaging workstations for smooth operation. The rising technological advancements, supported by the novel launches of products by the key players, are also expected to take the market to new heights. For Instance, in October 2021, JVC launched the CL-S600, a 30-inch medical imaging monitor 0.6-megapixel wide color monitor for displaying various diagnostic images on one workstation.

Further, a paradigm shift towards automated systems for the diagnosis of diseases is contributing to the development and adoption of medical imaging workstations. The introduction of advanced imaging modules such as 3D and 4D is helping healthcare professionals accurately diagnose the disease and make informed decisions. The integration of diagnostic systems with predictive analysis has enhanced the medical imaging workstations market CAGR across the globe in recent years.

However, rising medical imaging workstations expenditure is anticipated to boost the market over the forecast period. According to Eurostat data published in December 2021, Germany and France had the highest current healthcare expenditure relative to GDP in 2019. The level of current healthcare expenditure in Germany was EUR 403 billion in 2019 and remained at the highest level among the European Union (EU) and the Member States. Current healthcare expenditure in Germany and France was equivalent to 11.7 % and 11.1 %, respectively, of gross domestic product (GDP), more than in any other EU Member State. The next highest ratios were in Sweden (10.9 %), Belgium (10.7 %), Austria (10.4 %), the Netherlands (10.2 %), and Denmark (10.0 %); none of the remaining EU Member States recorded double-digit ratios. Hence, the increasing healthcare expenditure will likely support the growth of the medical imaging workstations market revenue.

Medical Imaging Workstations Market Segment Insights

Medical Imaging Workstations Modality Insights
