Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Systems Market Information: By Type (Open MRI and Close MRI), Field Strength (High-Field MRI Systems), Disease Application (Brain and Neurological MRI), and by End-Users (Hospitals & Clinics) - Forecast Till 2027

Magnetic Resonance Imaging Systems Market Overview:

The functional magnetic resonance imaging systems market is one of the rapidly improving market structures which is projected to achieve better future results due to the rising number of cases of tumors, cancers, injuries, and other forms of diseases in the liver, kidneys, bone, and tissues which leads to continuous investments being made towards the establishment and growth of the magnetic resonance imaging systems market size and share.

The functional magnetic resonance imaging system is a non-invasive technique that is used in the form of light to locate and interrogate any form of diseases or injuries through the imaging system and enables healthcare professionals to cure the diseases aptly. The MRI technique has gained wider acceptance all around the globe in the healthcare sector above the radioactive technology since the drawbacks and the risks associated with the UV radiations of the radioactive technology.

The MRI technique has been gaining popularity in different regions since it can easily locate and identify diseases related to tumors, strokes, and other diseases affecting the brain and blood vessels. The MRI technique has been facing greater acceptance due to its advantage of providing primary diagnosis related to a particular disease in a short time. Also, recent improvements in technology and improved logistics have boosted the demand for MRI-based equipment and devices.

The global magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems market is expected to grow at a CAGR of around 5.5% and the global market value to reach a total value of $5 Billion approximately. The magnetic resonance imaging systems market is expected to reap positive results from the Asia Pacific region where the demand for magnetic resonance imaging systems is expected to be high due to a large proportion of the geriatric population residing in these countries and the increasing number of cases of cancer in the countries of these regions. Moreover, the segment by application is expected to contribute maximum towards magnetic resonance imaging systems market share.

COVID 19 Analysis:

The covid 19 pandemic has affected every market segment and even health care industries negatively by creating a havoc situation in the healthcare sector whereby the pressure on the healthcare systems and professionals grew haphazardly which led to the increase for the need for magnetic resonance imaging systems market. This is because of the reliance of the healthcare professionals on the imaging process as it provides for short time diagnosis within the primary screening.

Therefore, it can be said that the demand for functional magnetic resonance imaging systems equipment rose in the covid pandemic. However, it would not be wrong to say that lack of infrastructures in most of the countries also disrupted the communication between nurses and patients which did not allow the healthcare professionals to focus more on the use of MRI techniques.

It is expected that post-covid when the restrictions are lifted and people find their way out to healthcare services for the treatment of other diseases as well, the demand for magnetic resonance imaging systems market would again pick up the pace, and the market would also experience major growth.

MARKET DYNAMICS

Drivers:

The magnetic resonance imaging systems market has been experiencing a diversified growth in all segments and across different regions due to the rising populations and the increasing per capita incomes of people which has shifted the demands of people to highly sophisticated and technologically advanced products and equipment which have acted as a motivating factor to the magnetic resonance imaging systems market.

Secondly, the increased number of applications of the MRI technique and its use in the treatment and location of a variety of diseases has provided a major boost to the overall market growth. Also, the use of MRI technique in the ongoing SARS CoV-2 virus has uplifted the market and in addition to this, the ever-increasing number of diseases and injuries have provided a much-needed boost to the MRI systems market.

Another major driver in the global magnetic resonance imaging systems market has been the ever-increasing health awareness programs and missions which have motivated people all over the world towards improvement in their health stats and to also be aware of the diseases that can be caused due to the consumption of various products. Also, the improvement in health care facilities all around the world and expenditures being made by the public and private entities have facilitated the magnetic resonance imaging systems market to have vast growth.

Restraints:                                      

The overall growth in the magnetic resonance imaging systems market has been expediently rising but certain factors hinder the growth process of the market which include large sums of money to be invested initially in setting up of magnetic resonance imaging systems companies and thus it restricts various new players to enter the markets.

Another key factor that acts as a barrier towards an increase in magnetic resonance imaging systems market share is the stringent and rigid system of rules and regulations from the Governments of different countries. Since it is a matter of public health and adoption of new techniques for the treatment of tumors and cancers has definitely attracted Government’s inspection agencies to have a strict overview on the invasive techniques which demotivates the manufacturers since a lot of paperwork and documents have to be filed before adoption of new technology.

Another key restraint that has been observed off late is the high cost of the magnetic resonance imaging systems which bars most of the patients who are not aptly equipped with all the financial resources and also affects the magnetic resonance imaging systems market share since it cannot cater to the diverse variety of patients of different sections of the society. The Government also tries to curb the cost of such treatment which also affects the healthcare workers negatively.

Technology Analysis:

The magnetic resonance imaging systems market trends have been dedicated towards the use of improved technology in the treatment process since the procedure for magnetic resonance imaging systems is based on highly scientific procedures and methods, it is usually carried on with the help of advanced tools and machines.

However, to be more specific, magnetic resonance imaging systems procedures involve pointing out the soft tissues and cells in the body and portraying any disease in such tissues which otherwise are neglected by a variety of imaging techniques. The oncology segment in the MRI technique provides for the creation of images that enables the doctors and the healthcare professional to identify any form of cancer or tumor. This technique also enables doctors in surgeries and radiation therapies and is thus in demand in many countries.

The technological system to be used soon in the magnetic resonance imaging systems market involves using robotics and artificial intelligence systems to provide for the specific and timely location of the tumor and then proceed with the treatment process and to remove the tumor by minimizing every threat associated with the treatment and also ensuring that tumor does not return after the treatment.
