Medical Image Analysis Software Market Size – By Software Type (Integrated, Standalone), Modality (Tomography, Ultrasound, Radiographic), Imaging Type, Application (Orthopedics, Dental, Neurology, Cardiology), End-user & Forecast, 2024 – 2032

Medical Image Analysis Software Market Size

Medical Image Analysis Software Market size was valued at USD 3.5 billion in 2023 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7% between 2024 and 2032. The market has witnessed substantial expansion propelled by the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases and the escalated demand for diagnostic imaging solutions, necessitating the use of medical image solutions. Healthcare professionals increasingly rely on medical imaging instruments to visualize organs, optimize surgical outcomes, and utilize preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) & computed tomography (CT) scans to assess tumor dimensions raising the consistent imaging solution demand.
 

Medical Image Analysis Software Market

Furthermore, the worldwide increase in cancer incidence, as indicated by the GLOBOCAN 2022 data update, with approximately 1.9 million new cases diagnosed globally in 2022, featured the necessity for advanced medical imaging solutions, thus increasing the diagnostic sector and driving the market demand.
 

Medical image analysis software refers to specialized software designed to assist healthcare professionals in interpreting and analyzing medical images obtained by various imaging modalities. This software utilizes advanced algorithms and tools to enhance image visualization, extract quantitative data, identify abnormalities, and aid in diagnosis, treatment planning, and monitoring of diseases.
 

Medical Image Analysis Software Market Trends

  • The rising elderly population has corresponded with a significant uptick in chronic conditions projected to drive the market demand in coming years. For instance, a study published by NCBI in September 2021 revealed that global peripheral arterial disease (PAD) prevalence stands between 3% to 12%, impacting approximately 27 million individuals in the U.S. and Europe alone.
     
  • Similarly, in Europe, PAD prevalence is estimated at 17.8% among individuals aged 45 to 55. This surge in disease prevalence is expected to drive the utilization of diagnostic imaging tools, thereby bolstering the medical imaging analysis software market.
     
However, concerns about software compliance and security are significant, potentially resulting in data breaches or impacting patient outcomes.

  • The dominance of the tomography segment in the market is rooted in its widespread utilization across various imaging modalities such as CT scanners, MRI systems, and positron emission tomography (PET) among others. These modalities are pivotal in the diagnosis of various medical conditions, spanning from neurological disorders to cancer.
     
  • Also, tomography techniques offered detailed, cross-sectional images of the body, enabling healthcare professionals to visualize internal structures with exceptional clarity. Their versatility and effectiveness in clinical practice make them indispensable tools, driving the tomography segment's dominance in the market.
     

Based on imaging type, the medical image analysis software market is classified into 2D, 3D, and 4D. The 3D imaging type segment accounted for 41.5% of the market in 2023.
 

  • 3D imaging has emerged as the most attractive segment, driven by its expanding applications and the growing prevalence of diseases such as cardiovascular, cancer, and neurological conditions. According to research, 3D imaging is extensively utilized across various imaging modalities including CT, MRI, PET, ultrasound, and radiography. For instance, in breast imaging, digital tomosynthesis (known as 3D mammography) has established itself as the standard. Thus, with the increasing demand for accurate diagnostic tools and treatment planning solutions, 3D imaging continues to be favored by healthcare professionals, driving its dominance in the market.
     

Based on application, the medical image analysis software market is classified into orthopedic, dental, neurology, cardiology, oncology, obstetrics & gynecology, mammography, respiratory and other applications. The cardiology segment is poised to cross USD 1.3 billion by 2032.
 

  • The cardiology segment was accredited due to the elevated occurrence of cardiovascular and congenital heart disease, coupled with governmental support aimed at enhancing treatment accessibility. For instance, in February 2020, the U.S. FDA approved the marketing of software designed to aid medical practitioners in acquiring echocardiography or cardiac ultrasound images. This software, named Caption Guidance, served as an adjunct to compatible diagnostic ultrasound systems, leveraging artificial intelligence to assist users in capturing high-quality heart images.
     
  • In addition, innovations such as AI-powered software for cardiac imaging further solidified cardiology's position as a key driver in the market, catering to the growing demand for precise and efficient diagnostic solutions.
     

Based on the end-user, the medical image analysis software market is classified into hospitals, diagnostic centers, ambulatory surgical centers, and other end-users. Hospitals are expected to retain their market dominance, displaying significant growth, and generating the highest revenue in 2023.
 

  • The hospital's dominance stemmed from the high demand for advanced imaging technologies for diagnosis and treatment planning. The extensive infrastructure and patient volume facilitate the adoption of sophisticated imaging solutions, making them primary drivers in the market.
     
  • Additionally, collaborations with software vendors and regulatory compliance further bolster hospitals' prominence in the industry. For instance, in February 2024, GE Healthcare formed a decade-long collaborative partnership with OSF HealthCare and Pointcore, Inc., aiming to enhance clinical and operational efficiencies, standardize care delivery models, and enhance patient outcomes. This agreement is the culmination of extensive collaboration across various initiatives, including healthcare technology management and diagnostic imaging technology advancements.
