Portable Medical Devices Market Size & Share Analysis - Growth Trends & Forecasts (2023 - 2028)
The diagnostic imaging equipment segment covers a wide array of medical devices used for diagnostic purposes like ultrasound, X-ray, and MRI, among others. It has a vast range of applications in the oncology, orthopedic, gastro, and gynecological fields. The key factors bolstering the diagnostic imaging segment are the rising burden of chronic diseases (as these devices are used in diagnosing diseases) and technological advancements in diagnostic imaging. According to the American Cancer Society 2022, in the United States, around 1.9 million new cancer cases and 609,360 cancer-related deaths are anticipated to be identified in 2022. Thus, a rise in the incidence of cancer escalates the demand for diagnostics imaging devices and is expected to drive market growth.
Technological advancements and product launches in diagnostic imaging are driving the diagnostic imaging equipment segment globally. For instance, in July 2022, Fujifilm Europe launched a new flexible, hybrid C-arm and portable X-ray machine. The device, called FDR Cross, is designed to offer high-quality fluoroscopic and static X-ray images during surgery and other medical procedures.
The Portable Medical Devices Market size is expected to grow from USD 75.73 billion in 2023 to USD 119.33 billion by 2028, at a CAGR of 9.52% during the forecast period (2023-2028).
The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic extended the role of portable medical devices in the healthcare trade. Portable technologies have always been crucial for both patients and professionals in effectively managing health in remote settings. With increasing focus on health management during COVID-19, portable medical devices have experienced increased demand in home settings. For example, according to the study titled 'A Wearable Tele-Health System towards Monitoring COVID-19 and Chronic Diseases' published in March 2021, simple, wearable, non-obtrusive sensor devices that can be monitored remotely can cut down on hospital admissions and visits. Such studies show the importance of portable medical devices, positively impacting the market growth.
