The global magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems market size reached USD 8.1 Billion in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 11.4 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 3.61% during 2025-2033.
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) refers to a non-invasive imaging technique, which is used to produce three dimensional (3D) images of organs and soft tissues inside the human body. An MRI machine consists of an adjustable bed and a large tube surrounded by a circular magnet through which the machine applies a magnetic field and radio waves on the patient's body. It produces detailed images and facilitates diagnosis of abnormalities in the brain, bones, breasts, heart, internal organs and spine. The MRI is usually combined with positron emission tomography (PET) and computed tomography (CT) scans to assist the doctors in examining joints, ligaments, cartilage, muscles and tendons, which is useful for detecting various muscular and bone injuries.
The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, along with the rising adoption of diagnostic services across the globe, is one of the key factors driving the growth of the market. MRI enables the early detection of orthopedic, cardiovascular and other conditions, which substantially increases the success rates of the treatment. This has consequently favored the adoption of MRI procedures across the globe. Furthermore, the growing geriatric population, which is more susceptible to such medical conditions, is also contributing to their increased adoption. Various technological advancements in the imaging equipment, such as software upgrades and utilization of super-conducting magnets compatible with cardiac pacemakers, are favoring the market growth. Moreover, innovations such as the introduction of 3D and 4D imaging equipped with accelerated processing speed and automated workflow, coupled with government initiatives to make quality healthcare facilities accessible to all, are projected to drive the market further.
The competitive landscape of the industry has also been examined with some of the key players being Aspect Imaging, Aurora Imaging Technology, Bruker, Canon Medical Systems, Esaote S.P.A, Fonar Corporation, GE Healthcare, Hitachi, Koninklijke Philips NV, Neusoft Medical Systems, Shenzhen Mindray Bio-Medical Electronics Co., Ltd. and Siemens Healthineers.
