Report Scope and Market Segmentation

Market Definition

An MRI scanner, also known as Magnetic Resonance Imaging scanner, is a medical device used to create detailed images of the internal structures of the body using strong magnetic fields and radio waves. It provides valuable information for diagnosing and monitoring various medical conditions, including tumors, injuries, and diseases. MRI scanners are non-invasive and do not use ionizing radiation, making them a safer alternative to other imaging techniques. These scanners are commonly used in hospitals, clinics, and research facilities, and their advanced technology allows for high-resolution imaging of different body parts, such as the brain, spine, joints, and organs.

MRI Scanner Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Rising geriatric population

The increasing geriatric population is one of the important drivers for boosting the demand of the MRI scanner machine because geriatric people are more prone to various type of diseases and MRI scanners are used to detect such type of diseases such as brain tumours, multiple sclerosis, stroke, traumatic brain injury, developmental anomalies, dementia, and the causes of headache.

The rapid growth in the elderly population brings in a greater chance of health issues as they are more prone to various types of health disorders. The statistics show that one in 10 people who undergo with surgery are 65 or older and in which surgical procedures such as cardiology, pelvic and abdominal, oncology, mammography, gynaecology, urology, brain and neurological, musculoskeletal, and dental among others MRI scanners are used to detect the diseases with real-time high quality based images, due to which rising geriatric population is propelling the demand of the market.

• Increasing prevalence of chronic diseases

Chronic diseases affect a huge number of people across the world, and according to the World Health Organization (WHO), the burden of chronic diseases is rapidly increasing in the Middle East and Africa. The MRI imaging procedure is a powerful diagnostic method which is supporting robust measurements of crucial markers of cardiac structure and function, scar, and myocardial perfusion, also have high quality based MRI images provide detailed insight into single tissues, which helps the healthcare professionals to diagnose the patients with suitable and accurate treatment, due to which the rising number of chronic diseases is propelling the demand of the MRI scanner market.

• Rising awareness of early disease diagnosis

Early treatment of various types of diseases has chances of identifying the symptoms as early as possible. Due to increasing cases of brain tumor and breast cancer and awareness regarding the treatment has led the healthcare professionals to get engaged in providing better treatment for fast recovery. MRI scanner procedure is the most common way to determine the type of brain tumor, also MRI procedure is a stable and best way to finding and pinpointing some cancers and to know their accurate place in the patient’s body, due to which rising awareness on early disease diagnosis is propelling the demand of the MRI scanner

Opportunities

• Strategic initiatives by market players

The demand for MRI scanners has boosted in the region as well as globally, due to the growth in the rise in various chronic diseases and the rise in geriatric population. These favourable factors accomplishing enhance the need for the early diagnosis through MRI scanner, and to accomplish the market demand, minor and major market players are utilizing various strategies.

• Technological advancements

Continuous advancements in MRI scanner technology present opportunities for improved imaging capabilities, faster scan times, and enhanced patient comfort. Innovations such as higher field strengths, more efficient gradients, and advanced imaging techniques like functional MRI (fMRI) and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) allow for better diagnostic accuracy and expanded applications in various medical fields.

Restraints/Challenges

• High Cost

MRI scanners are expensive to acquire and maintain. The initial cost of purchasing an MRI scanner is significant, and the ongoing expenses related to maintenance, upgrades, and servicing can also be substantial.
