The global CT scanner market size is expected to reach USD 11.45 billion by 2034, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report "CT Scanner Market Size, Share, Trends, Industry Analysis Report: By Type (Stationary CT Scanners and Portable CT Scanners), Device Architecture, Technology, Application, End-Use, and Region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa) - Market Forecast, 2025-2034" gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.
A CT scanner is a medical imaging device that uses X-rays and computer processing to create detailed cross-sectional images (or slices) of the body. These images allow healthcare providers to view the inside of the body in a non-invasive manner, aiding in the diagnosis and treatment planning of various medical conditions, including cancers, heart diseases, injuries, and neurological disorders.
The CT scanner market is experiencing significant growth driven by factors such as the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, rising demand for advanced diagnostic tools, and technological advancements in imaging systems. The need for accurate, non-invasive diagnostics, particularly in oncology, cardiology, and neurology, is also fueling the market expansion.
Opportunities lie in the growing adoption of portable and compact CT scanners for point-of-care settings, as well as the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) to improve image processing and diagnostic precision. Key CT scanner market trends such as low-dose radiation technology, hybrid imaging systems, and the expansion of CT scanners into veterinary applications are expected to contribute to the market development. With a growing focus on reducing healthcare costs and improving accessibility, particularly in emerging markets, the CT scanner market is poised for continued expansion.
By type, the stationary CT scanners segment holds the largest CT scanner market share due to their widespread use in hospitals and diagnostic centers for routine and emergency diagnostics. The portable CT scanners segment is witnessing the fastest growth, driven by their mobility and use in emergency and remote care settings.
Based on device architecture, the C-arm CT scanners segment dominates the market, offering real-time imaging during surgical procedures. The O-arm CT scanners segment is registering the fastest growth, primarily driven by their enhanced imaging capabilities for spine and orthopedic surgeries.
In terms of technology, the high-slice CT segment holds the largest market share due to its advanced imaging capabilities, particularly in complex diagnostics. The cone beam CT (CBCT) is witnessing the fastest growth, mainly due to its use in dental and orthopedic imaging with reduced radiation exposure.
The human application segment dominates the market, driven by the high demand for CT scans in diagnosing a wide range of medical conditions. The veterinary application segment is registering the fastest growth due to increasing adoption in animal healthcare and diagnostics.
By end-use, hospitals & diagnostic centers dominate the CT scanner market, as they are the primary locations for CT scanners in routine diagnostics and emergency care. Ambulatory care centers are registering the fastest growth, driven by the trend toward outpatient care and more affordable imaging solutions.
North America holds the largest market share due to advanced healthcare infrastructure and high demand for diagnostic imaging. Asia Pacific is witnessing the fastest growth, supported by improving healthcare access and increasing demand for advanced imaging technologies.
Siemens Healthineers, GE Healthcare, Philips Healthcare, Canon Medical Systems, Hitachi Healthcare, Samsung Medison, Toshiba Medical Systems, Carestream Health, Neusoft Medical Systems, United Imaging Healthcare, Konica Minolta, Medtronic, Fujifilm Medical Systems, Hologic, and Planmed are a few of the CT scanner market key players.
