Global Mobile Imaging Services Market to Reach $2.2 Billion by 2026
Mobile radiology represents a transforming concept that is evolving rapidly in line with notable advancements in the point-of-care (POC) testing arena. By wrapping digital X-ray capability into a mobile cart or portable system, the concept allows medical professionals to perform imaging examinations almost anywhere, including at patient bedside. The functionality incorporated into a mobile and compact footprint facilitates seamless examinations and accelerates the imaging turnaround to ensure faster diagnosis and treatment-related decision. The increasing acceptance of these mobile radiology units in clinical and other settings is anticipated to empower people and help healthcare providers in monitoring and managing patient health in an efficient manner. The mobile radiology trend is anticipated to receive a considerable push from increasing focus on point-of-care testing and ongoing advances in this direction. The concept is expected to play an important role in complementing traditional imaging practices and enabling users to perform a large number of radiology examinations in an effective way.

Continuously and rapidly evolving changes in global healthcare are helping mobile imaging services worldwide to become more popular and in their increased adoption throughout the global healthcare industry. The principal reason behind this is that mobile imaging seeks to provide comprehensive EKG, ultrasound, and X-Ray services to medical facilities, businesses, and homes directly.
Moreover, they are faster and generally cheaper when compared to third-party alternatives and take the excessive workload off overburdened in-house units for imaging. Furthermore, such mobile services can be seamlessly integrated into all existing services without any additional overhead cost. All leading players in the market for mobile diagnostic imaging have started developing mobile versions of all imaging modalities, be it X-ray, ultrasound, CT, PET, or MRI.
Such devices are hugely helpful in the emergency rooms of hospitals, as they allow immediate examination without having to remove a patient, thereby saving considerable time, especially in critical cases. Smaller hospitals too, stand to benefit from them in their ICUs ad because of lower throughput.
CT Segment to Reach $363.1 Million by 2026
In the global CT segment, USA, Canada, Japan, China and Europe will drive the 4.3% CAGR estimated for this segment. These regional markets accounting for a combined market size of $232.1 Million in the year 2020 will reach a projected size of $310.8 Million by the close of the analysis period.
