The Mobile Radiography Systems market is projected to reach USD 6308.14 Million by 2030 at 5.90% CAGR during the forecast period 2022-2030.
From the past few years, the global healthcare infrastructure has witnessed rapid growth and medical imaging is not an exception. Now, conventional radiography systems are losing their title of “primary imaging modality” and are being replaced with mobile radiography devices. Such trends in the market can be agglomerated owing to the increasing demand for mobile imaging systems for intensive & critical care units’ and operating & emergency rooms’ patients. According to an article published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in 2017, there were ~12.3 million emergency hospital admissions within the US in 2015. Such high cases of emergency admissions are followed by the immediate need for medical attention (diagnosis and medication). Thus, in such cases, mobile radiography systems can be life-saving due to easy, fast and accurate diagnosis of the patients’ medical condition.
Moreover, the increasing global burden of diseases, the rising number of radiologic technologists, a growing number of medical imaging procedures, and increasing healthcare expenditure are some of the major drivers for the mobile radiography systems market. As per the UK workforce census report of 2017 by GOV.UK, there were 5,303 total radiology technologists within the region. This number is further estimated to increase, meeting the diagnosis demand of the diseases. Thus, providing a suitable boost for the market. However, stringent FDA approvals and the high cost of the diagnostics procedures followed by the associated risks restraints the market growth. The average estimated cost of CT scans within the US is estimated at about USD 800 to USD 1,200. Such high costs make the patients reluctant to opt for such a procedure. This may lag the market during the forecast period.Â
Medical imaging has been part of the rapid expansion that the global healthcare infrastructure has been experiencing over the past few years, and it has not been an exception. Mobile radiography devices are quickly displacing traditional radiography systems as the principal imaging modality. These tendencies in the market may be aggregated as a result of the growing demand for mobile imaging systems among patients undergoing treatment in intensive and critical care units as well as operating rooms and emergency rooms.
A rise in research and development activities within the healthcare industry, an increase in the demand for efficient diagnostic imaging techniques as a result of an increase in the incidence of chronic diseases such as cancer, appendicitis, and arthritis, and an increase in the demand for patient-centric medical care are all factors that are anticipated to propel growth of the portable radiography equipment market over the course of the forecast period. This will contribute to the expansion of the market. In addition, an expanding worldwide burden of disease, an increasing number of radiologic technologists, an increasing number of medical imaging operations, and an increasing expenditure on healthcare are some of the primary drivers for the market for mobile radiography systems.
July 2023: KA Imaging, a maker of X-ray equipment, will introduce its Reveal Mobi Pro dual-energy transportable X-ray system in July 2023. In the wake of the pandemic, mobile imaging has become increasingly commonplace in many hospitals, making it more important than ever to provide a solution to enhance the visualization of bones and tissues at the bedside. The Reveal Mobi Pro is a fully functional mobile X-ray system that incorporates KA Imaging's Reveal 35C detector and SpectralDR technology. Hospital results and income are both improved by Reveal's ability to gather conventional and dual-energy images with a single exposure at the bedside.  In July 2023, Shimadzu Medical Systems introduced a DDR feature for its MobileDaRt Evolution portable x-ray machine. They have added DDR functionality to their MobileDaRt Evolution MX8 Version k-type system. DDR is a cutting-edge x-ray technology that generates dynamic imaging studies by delivering a succession of individual digital images from a sequence of pulsed x-rays. May 2023 — Carestream Health has added the DRX-Rise Mobile X-ray System to its already extensive line of portable radiology equipment. Customers can replace or add to their current DR fleet with this feature-rich digital X-ray device without making a huge financial commitment. The DRX-Rise from Carestream is a high-end mobile digital radiography system that comes at a reasonable price thanks to significant advancements in imaging quality, user friendliness, and throughput.

The Americas dominates the global market for mobile radiography systems owing suitable reimbursement policies for radiological procedures like computed tomography (CT) and the presence of major players within the region. Moreover, high healthcare expenditure within the Americas boosts the regional market. According to an article published by the Society of Cardiovascular Computed Tomography, Cardiac CT is covered for reimbursement in Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Indiana, and Michigan under CPT codes, CPT 75574, 75573, and 75572.
Following similar trends, Europe stood second in the mobile radiography systems market. On a regional basis, the European market is segmented into Western Europe and Eastern Europe. Western Europe is estimated to lead the market due to the presence of developed economies, increasing radiologists' workforce, and rising government funding for healthcare.
Asia-Pacific was the fastest-growing region for the mobile radiography systems market in 2017. The rapidly growing medical diagnostic sector, increasing prevalence of diseases and increasing awareness for mobile radiography systems are some of the major market drivers within the region. According to a white paper published by the Indian Brand Equity Foundation in 2017, it is projected that the diagnostic market in India will USD 32 billion by 2022. On the other hand, the Middle East and Africa hold the least share in the mobile radiography systems market owing to stringent government policies, the presence of poor economies, lack of awareness, and low healthcare expenditure within the region.
