Middle East and Africa Magnetic Resonance Imaging Devices Market – Industry Trends and Forecast to 2030

Middle East and Africa Magnetic Resonance Imaging Devices Market Analysis and Size

According to the International Agency for Research on Cancer (Globocan), approximately 1.11 million cancer cases were reported in Africa in 2020, with this figure expected to rise to 2.08 million by 2040. Furthermore, the elderly population is more prone to chronic diseases, the importance of diagnostic imaging in the country is growing. Similarly, the United States Census Bureau reported in 2021 that 74.4 million people in the African region are 65 and older, which is expected to rise to 235.1 million by 2050. Medical imaging is especially important in caring for the elderly, who have complex symptomatology and a high prevalence of musculoskeletal diseases, necessitating sensitive imaging modalities. Thus, the rising prevalence of cancer and the growing geriatric population are increasing the demand for disease diagnosis via imaging techniques, which will drive the growth of market.

Middle East and Africa Magnetic Resonance Imaging Devices Market Scope and Segmentation

Market Definition

Magnetic resonance imaging is a medical imaging technique that creates detailed images of tissues and organs in the body using computer-generated radio waves and a magnetic field. MRI machines can also produce 3D images that can be viewed from various angles. It is a non-invasive technique used by doctors to study tissues, organs, and the skeletal system. MRI is commonly used to monitor spinal cord and brain imaging tests.

Middle East and Africa Magnetic Resonance Imaging Devices Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Rise in geriatric population

The market is expanding as a result of the rising elderly population in the area. Aging of the brain is more common in the older population. There is a lot of inter-individual variation in the complicated and varied process of cerebral ageing. The market is fuelled by structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which can be utilized to recognize and measure non-disease-related ageing of the cerebral white matter. For instance, an article published in April 2021 with the title "Predictive determinants of epilepsy outcome in a sample of Egyptian pre-old and elderly population" detailed the rising prevalence of epilepsy and other brain illnesses among the elderly Egyptian population. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can be performed to discover any significant disorders that may have caused the seizure, which can be a serious epileptic seizure. Since there are many age-related ailments in Africa due to the large geriatric population, imaging diagnostics are projected to increase, pushing the market to grow.

Opportunities

• Government Initiatives

Government initiatives are propelling the market. For instance, The National Cancer Strategic for South Africa, reported in November 2020 that the South African government's strategic framework had provided a platform for equitable access to cancer prevention and control, with a particular emphasis on establishing new approaches and strengthening existing and sustaining infrastructure and equipment to ensure timely and appropriate access to diagnostic and treatment services. Thus, such government initiatives improve cancer diagnostic facilities for South Africans, driving demand for magnetic resonance imaging devices.

Restraints/Challenges

• High Costs

The high price of MRI systems is expected to hamper the market growth. Furthermore, even refurbished low-field MRI systems can cost several million dollars. Expensive MRI systems hinder the market growth, inconsistent MRI systems in some patient population hamper the market growth, high maintenance and servicing charges.

COVID-19 Impact on Magnetic Resonance Imaging Devices Market

The COVID-19 outbreak had a minimal effect on the magnetic resonance imaging devices. There have been restrictions on the use of MRIs, as there is a high risk of contamination due to the use of large equipment, which has hampered market growth because of the government's lockdown and social distance restrictions imposed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic epidemic. Furthermore, guidelines state that radiologists should only use diagnostic imaging equipment to diagnose COVID-19 patients when absolutely necessary. The postponement of non-essential medical services due to the covid-19 epidemic hampered market growth even more. Several issues arose, such as the impact on outpatient imaging services, which harmed the industry.

Recent Development

• In 2022, Under the Rays of Hope training programme, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) will partner with GE Healthcare to train professionals from Africa in medical imaging techniques such as PET-CT and PET-MRI, which provide a more accurate diagnosis of diseases such as cancer. As a result, such collaborations will result in better MRI services in the region.
• In 2022, Medical services in Kilifi County received a Sh 1.5 billion fund from the country's government for the construction of equipped cancer screening and treatment facilities, as well as radiology facilities that included computerized tomography scan (CT-Scan) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) facilities.
