3D Ultrasound Market Size, Share, Growth Analysis, By Application(General Imaging, Cardiovascular, Obstetrics and gynecology, Point of care), By End-use(Handheld and cart), By Region - Industry Forecast 2024-2031

Global 3D Ultrasound Market size was valued at USD 3.9 billion in 2019 and is poised to grow from USD 4.31 billion in 2023 to USD 9.6 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 10.53% in the forecast period (2024-2031).

The technological development, the rising healthcare expenses from both the government and private insurers for the growth of medical imaging services are the factors that boost the 3D and 4D ultrasound devices market in forecast period. Furthermore, the equipment into advancing countries and the rise in the expenditure on medical technology are anticipated to further propel the growth of the 3D and 4D ultrasound devices market. The market growth is driven by the rapid technological advancements made in 3D imaging, surge in diagnostic centers and healthcare centers, rapidly shifting preference for Minimally Invasive Procedure (MIP), and growing prevalence of diseases.

Rapid technological advancements made in 3D imaging are driving revenue growth of the market. High-frequency sound waves and specialized imaging software are used in 3D ultrasounds to produce images of baby’s soft tissues, organs, and other anatomical features. A 3D ultrasound has some significant advantages over a conventional 2D ultrasound, such as the capacity to visualize fetal anatomy more clearly, due to the ability to see an infinite number of planes. In addition, Doppler, a foetal ultrasound imaging and hand-held ultrasound equipment, provides real-time images of the fetus through an ultrasound which monitors and allows to hear fetus’s heartbeats. Both are prescription medical equipment used by only specialists.

Despite widespread use of 2D ultrasound imaging for interventional procedures, such as biopsy and direction of ablation techniques, 3D ultrasound is gradually becoming more common in clinical settings. By advancement in 3D imaging technology, High-quality 3D images of intricate anatomical features and pathologies have been made possible.

US 3D Ultrasound Market is poised to grow at a sustainable CAGR for the next forecast year.
