The optical coherence tomography (OCT) market size is expected to reach USD 4.65 billion by 2034, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report "Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) Market Share, Size, Trends, Industry Analysis Report: By Technology, By Type (Ophthalmology, Cardiovascular, Oncology, Dermatology, Other Applications), By Application, and By Region; Market Forecast, 2025-2034" gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an advanced imaging modality that utilizes light waves to capture high-resolution cross-sectional views of tissue structures. The OCT market is driven by the integration of artificial intelligence and machine learning, which enhances image interpretation and improves diagnostic accuracy. AI-powered OCT systems are becoming increasingly valuable in clinical decision-making by enabling automated detection of abnormalities and reducing interpretation errors. This convergence of imaging technology with digital innovation is advancing precision diagnostics and supporting more effective treatment planning.
The OCT market is further driven by the growing shift toward portable and point-of-care OCT devices, which provide flexibility in diverse clinical environments. These compact systems are designed to expand access to diagnostic imaging, particularly in environments where traditional large-scale equipment is less feasible. The portability of OCT devices enhances patient convenience, improves workflow efficiency, and broadens the scope of applications beyond hospital-based care. This trend reflects the market's movement toward user-friendly and accessible solutions that align with the evolving demands of modern healthcare.
In terms of technology, the time domain optical coherence tomography segment held a 42.02% revenue share in 2024, driven by cost-efficiency and broad clinical adoption.
Based on type, the doppler OCT segment is projected to grow at a 14.6% CAGR, fueled by its ability to simultaneously image tissue structure and blood flow.
North America held a 37.54% global market share in 2024, attributed to advanced healthcare infrastructure and high adoption of innovative diagnostic technologies.
The Asia Pacific market is projected to grow at a 14.3% CAGR from 2025-2034, owing to rising healthcare investment and increasing prevalence of chronic conditions.
A few global key market players include Abbott Laboratories, Agfa Healthcare, Carl Zeiss Meditec AG, Heidelberg Engineering GmbH, Koninklijke Philips, Michelson Diagnostics, Novacam Technologies Inc., OPTOPOL Technology S.A., Thorlabs Inc., and Topcon Medical Systems Inc.
