Refurbished Medical Imaging Devices Market, By Product (X-ray Machines, Magnetic Resonance Imaging Systems, Ultrasound Systems, Computed Tomography Scanners, Nuclear Imaging), End-use (Hospitals, Diagnostics Imaging Centers) & Forecast, 2024 – 2032

Refurbished Medical Imaging Devices Market Size

Refurbished Medical Imaging Devices Market was valued at around USD 5 billion in 2023 and is estimated to register a CAGR of over 7.5% between 2024 & 2032. Refurbished medical imaging devices are previously owned medical imaging equipment that has been restored to a condition suitable for reuse. New medical imaging devices such as MRI machines, computed tomography scanners, and ultrasound equipment come with significant price tags.
 

Refurbished Medical Imaging Devices Market

For instance, X-ray machines vary widely in cost; portable X-ray devices range from USD 5,000 to USD 60,000, while stationary systems range from USD 35,000 to over USD 200,000. Furthermore, MRI system which is estimated to reach USD 12 billion by 2032, can cost from USD 150,000 to over USD 3 million, with 1.5T and 3.0T units priced between USD 200,000 and USD 375,000. Thus, this high initial investment can be prohibitive for many healthcare facilities, especially smaller clinics, or those in developing regions. Therefore, refurbished medical imaging devices offer a cost-effective alternative, enabling providers to obtain essential equipment at lower costs without sacrificing quality.
 

Furthermore, as medical imaging technology evolves, healthcare facilities often seek to upgrade their equipment to incorporate newer models and advanced features. Refurbished medical imaging devices provide a cost-efficient solution for facilities to enhance their imaging capabilities without investing in brand-new equipment. This enables them to leverage newer technologies and improve patient care quality.
 

Refurbished Medical Imaging Devices Market Trends

With medical technology advances and the aging population, there is a growing demand for diagnostic imaging procedures. For instance, the World Health Organization (WHO) reports that the aging population is linked to a rise in chronic diseases. By 2050, the global population aged 60 years and above is expected to double, with the number of individuals aged 80 years or older projected to triple. This demographic change results in a higher prevalence of age-related conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, dementia, and arthritis. Thus, refurbished medical imaging devices address this increasing demand by offering affordable solutions that enhance access to essential healthcare services.
 

  • Furthermore, there is an increasing emphasis on sustainability and environmental responsibility across various industries, including healthcare.
     
  • The disposal of electronic waste (e-waste) generated by obsolete medical equipment poses significant environmental challenges. By opting for refurbished medical imaging devices, healthcare facilities can contribute to minimizing e-waste and promote sustainability by extending the lifespan of existing equipment through refurbishment and reuse.
