Impact of COVID-19 on the Global Spine X-Ray and Computed Tomography (CT) Market
The COVID-19 pandemic had a debilitating impact on the global healthcare ecosystem. Hospitals and clinics faced several challenges such as lack of resources, high patient influx, and risk of infection among care providers. The market is projected to witness considerable growth during the forecast period 2021-2030. The increasing innovations and product designs in the global market and the growing use in emerging economies are the driving factors for the growth of the market.
Global Spine X-Ray and Computed Tomography (CT) Market Drivers
The factors driving the growth of the market include an increasing number of spinal injuries driving the need for increased X-ray and CT scans, advent of artificial intelligence in medical imaging, and the growing expenditure in the healthcare industry. The increasing prevalence of falls, rising geriatric population has, in turn, increased the demand for procedural volume of X-rays and CT scans. Governments invest a significant amount of money in healthcare insurance so that the overall healthcare costs can be reduced, and the quality of life and affordability of the treatment can be enhanced.
Global Spine X-Ray and Computed Tomography (CT) Market Restraints
The factors restraining the growth of the global spine X-ray and computed tomography market include the risks associated with radiation exposure and delay in regulatory approvals. Delay in regulatory approval for the products due to the stringent government regulations concerning the use of AI-enabled software in medical imaging hinders the market's growth. Moreover, another factor restraining the growth of the global spine X-ray and computed tomography market is the high cost associated with medical imaging.
Global Spine X-Ray and Computed Tomography (CT) Market Opportunities
High growth opportunities in emerging economies and the emergence of local companies in Asia-Pacific and the Middle East and Africa hold immense potential for the global spine X-ray and computed tomography market growth.
There is massive scope for spine X-ray and CT devices in developing countriesas countries such as China, India, Brazil, and Mexico possess populations with a high prevalence of spinal injuries and vertebral fractures. Thus, the rising prevalence of spinal injuries tends to increase the volume of X-ray and CT scans, consequently advancing device adoption and the growth of the global market.
