Mammography systems serve as vital medical imaging devices utilized for the detection of breast cancer. Employing low-dose X-rays, these systems generate detailed images of breast tissue, aiding in the identification of abnormalities such as tumors or cysts. They play a critical role in early detection, thereby enhancing treatment outcomes and patient survival rates. Mammography systems employ either digital or analog technology for both screening and diagnostic purposes.
The primary products within the realm of mammography systems include analog systems, full field digital mammography systems, and breast tomosynthesis systems. Analog systems encompass traditional film-based imaging systems employed for breast examinations. The technology utilized in mammography systems encompasses screen film, 2D mammography, and 3D mammography, with modalities including both portable and non-portable systems. These systems find application among various end-users, including hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, and other medical facilities.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The sharp increase in U.S. tariffs and resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are significantly impacting the medical equipment sector, especially for imported components used in imaging machines, surgical-grade stainless steel, and disposable plastics. With hospitals and clinics pushing back against price increases, manufacturers are facing margin pressure. The situation is further complicated by regulatory challenges, as switching suppliers due to tariffs often necessitates re-certification of medical devices, leading to delays in market entry. In response, companies are mitigating risks by dual-sourcing key components, ramping up domestic production of standardized items, and accelerating research into more cost-effective materials.
The mammography systems research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides mammography systems market statistics, including the mammography systems industry's global market size, regional shares, competitors with a mammography systems market share, detailed mammography systems market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the mammography systems industry. This mammography systems market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The mammography systems market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.5 billion in 2024 to $2.72 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing prevalence of breast cancer, increasing government initiatives and programs promoting breast cancer, favorable reimbursement policies, and increased awareness about the importance of early detection of breast cancer.
The mammography systems market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.73 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing adoption of 3D mammography, increasing healthcare expenditure, shift towards digital mammography systems, expansion of market presence in emerging markets with improving healthcare infrastructure, and growing focus on preventive healthcare and early disease detection. Major trends in the forecast period include the integration of AI algorithms into mammography systems, the adoption of 3D tomosynthesis, mobile mammography units, AI-driven diagnostics, telemedicine, and remote monitoring.
The forecast of 8.2% growth over the next five years reflects a modest reduction of 0.7% from the previous estimate for this market.This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. This is likely to directly affect the US through supply chain disruptions for 3D tomosynthesis gantries and computer-aided design (CAD) software modules, sourced from key regions such as Italy and Sweden, which could lead to outdated screening technology and higher capital equipment expenses.The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.
The upward trend in breast cancer cases is anticipated to drive the growth of the mammography systems market in the coming years. Breast cancer involves the abnormal proliferation of cells in breast tissue, potentially forming malignant tumors capable of metastasizing to other body parts. Factors contributing to the rise in breast cancer cases include changes in lifestyle, an aging population, genetic mutations, and hormonal influences. Mammography systems play a crucial role in combating breast cancer by facilitating early detection, precise diagnosis, and effective management strategies, ultimately leading to improved patient outcomes and survival rates. For example, according to the American Cancer Society's data in January 2023, breast cancer cases increased from 284,200 in 2021 to 300,590 in 2023, representing a growth rate of 5.76%. Hence, the increasing incidence of breast cancer is a key driver for the expansion of the mammography systems market.
Prominent companies in the mammography systems market are dedicated to developing AI-powered systems like Amulet Sophinity to enhance diagnostic precision, streamline workflow, and elevate patient outcomes. Amulet Sophinity is a digital mammography system infused with AI technology, aimed at enhancing the accuracy and comfort of breast cancer diagnosis. For instance, Fujifilm Holdings Corporation launched Amulet Sophinity in February 2024, featuring low-dose imaging, high-quality images, and improved workflow functionalities driven by AI technology. This system supports dual-angle tomosynthesis for enhanced calcification detection and incorporates AI-powered projection functions to guide breast positioning based on previous mammography images.
In August 2023, Solis Mammography, a provider of specialized breast health services, completed the acquisition of Carolina Breast Imaging to expand its presence in North Carolina. This strategic move ensures greater accessibility to cutting-edge breast health services for women in the region, offering advanced technology such as state-of-the-art imaging and diagnostic tools powered by AI.
