COVID-19 Impact

The COVID-19 pandemic had a negative effect on the veterinary imaging sector, along with several other sectors in 2020. Owing to COVID-19 supply delays, precautionary measures and widely imposed nationwide lockdowns in many nations have undoubtedly reduced veterinary appointments which in turn reduced imaging services.

However, the pandemic has accelerated the update of digital health and telemedicine tools in veterinary medicine. The number of veterinarians offering digital or remote consultations increased by 20% as a result of the pandemic with almost half of veterinarians (47%) offering online services.  Adopting remote support platforms has enabled veterinarians to fully utilise CT technology. Post pandemic, the veterinary care market is expected to grow considering increasing number of companion animals, increasing animal care spending, and technological advancements.  

Veterinary CT Imaging Market Trends

The market is influenced by several trends that shape its development. Some of the key trends observed in the market include increasing gains for advanced imaging modalities, rising popularity of 3D imaging, expansion of veterinary specialty services, integration of veterinary CT imaging with picture archiving and communication systems (PACS), adoption of cone beam CT technology, and focus on dose reduction and radiation safety. These trends reflect the evolving landscape of veterinary CT imaging, driven by technological advancements, increasing specialization, and the growing demand for high-quality diagnostic imaging in veterinary medicine.
