The global breast imaging market size was estimated at USD 5.88 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 12.03 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 9.7% from 2026 to 2033. Factors such as the rising prevalence of breast cancer, technological breakthroughs in the domain of breast imaging, and investment from several organizations in breast cancer screening programs drive the breast imaging market.
According to the World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF), by 2030, the number of cases of breast cancer is expected to reach about 2.1 million globally. According to a new report from the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), breast cancer cases are expected to increase by 38 percent globally by 2050, with annual deaths from the disease projected to rise by 68 percent. This aspect is expected to contribute to the growth of the breast imaging market over the forecast period.
The growing prevalence of breast cancer and other breast-related abnormalities is expected to drive the expansion of the breast imaging market significantly. According to data published by the National Breast Cancer Foundation, Inc. in June 2025, approximately 1 in 8 women in the U.S. is expected to be diagnosed with breast cancer during their lifetime. In addition, projections from the International Agency for Research on Cancer estimate a 27.8% increase in breast cancer incidence in the U.S. between 2022 and 2050, with cases expected to reach approximately 350,693 by 2050. This substantial rise in cancer cases is anticipated to fuel the demand for breast magnetic resonance imaging procedures across the country.
Technological advancements are driving the growth of the breast imaging market, supported by increasing demand for earlier and more accurate cancer detection. Innovations such as molecular breast imaging, AI-assisted diagnostics, and enhanced breast imaging displays are improving clinical confidence and reducing interpretation challenges. As healthcare providers prioritize precision medicine and screening efficiency, these advanced tools continue to accelerate adoption and shape the future of breast cancer detection and care.
Widespread research in the development of hybrid imaging systems provides high growth opportunities and also aids the market growth. Recent developments in imaging technology have completely revolutionized the nature of treatment and how it is approached. To view the metabolic data and anatomical characteristics of the organs, it has become more crucial to combine imaging methods such as CT scans, MRIs, PET, and others. Furthermore, the quality of breast pictures, patient comfort, and patient dose have all been enhanced by these integrated imaging modalities. Thereby, owing to these advantages, manufacturers across the globe are concentrating more on the introduction of new products to improve the sensitivity and precision of breast cancer diagnostics. For instance, in February 2025, DeepHealth plans to introduce its Diagnostic Suite to the European market, offering a next-generation PACS system with a unified, workflow-optimized radiology workspace. The company also aims to expand access to SmartMammo, its AI-driven end-to-end mammography diagnostic solution, further integrating AI-enabled detection and clinical decision support into routine imaging workflows.
