Introduction

Global CT scanner Market (USD Million), 2021 - 2031

In the year 2024, the Global CT scanner Market was valued at USD 6,876.88 million. The size of this market is expected to increase to USD 10,050.20 million by the year 2031, while growing at a Compounded Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 5.6%.

Technological advancements in computed tomography (CT) technology, combined with the rising prevalence of chronic disorders such as cancer, orthopedic conditions, and cardiovascular and neurological diseases, are significantly driving the growth of the CT market. As healthcare systems increasingly prioritize preventive measures, there has been a marked increase in routine diagnostic procedures. This trend not only contributes to the growing market for CT imaging but also underscores the technology's critical role in enhancing patient care. The benefits of CT imaging include improved diagnoses, the prevention of unnecessary medical procedures, and enhanced treatment efficacy through detailed anatomical imaging, all while maintaining cost-effectiveness.

CT imaging serves as an essential diagnostic tool, particularly for simultaneously scanning bone, soft tissue, and blood vessels. Its speed and ease of use make it invaluable in emergency situations, where early detection of internal injuries can be life-saving. This heightened demand for advanced assessment tools in emergency departments, along with the increasing number of ambulatory emergency care units, is expected to positively influence market growth. The continuous integration of technological innovations, such as artificial intelligence (AI), into CT systems further enhances their operational efficiency and image quality, making them indispensable in modern medical practice.

Notable advancements have been made in the field, as evidenced by several key product launches in recent years. For instance, in May 2023, Royal Philips introduced its AI-powered CT scanner, the Philips CT 3500, at prominent medical fairs such as the China International Medical Equipment Fair (CMEF 2023) and the Deutscher Röntgenkongress (ROKO 2023) in Germany. Additionally, Siemens Healthineers launched the Somatom X. need CT scanner in May 2021, a high-speed, high-resolution system designed to streamline procedures for both medical staff and patients. Similarly, GE Healthcare’s Revolution Ascend system, introduced in September 2021, utilizes AI to enhance operational efficiency and patient comfort. These innovations highlight the ongoing commitment to research and development (R&D) within the healthcare sector, driven by the need for advanced imaging technologies.

Investment in R&D is vital for maintaining competitiveness in the rapidly evolving healthcare landscape, prompting both private and government organizations to allocate significant resources towards this goal. For instance, in 2022, Siemens Healthineers established a new CT production unit in India to meet the increasing demand for CT devices and strengthen its market position. Furthermore, the growing volume of CT scan procedures underscores the technology's expanding footprint in medical imaging. With over 70 million CT scans conducted annually in the U.S. and 7.1 million in the UK—reflecting an annual growth rate of 10%—the market demonstrates robust growth potential. The broadening applications of CT scans, including effective lung cancer screening and dental diagnostics, position the technology as a critical component in both developed and developing healthcare systems.
