Latin America Medical Imaging Market Insights

Latin America Medical Imaging Market size was valued at USD 5.18 Billion in 2023 and is poised to grow from USD 5.5 Billion in 2024 to USD 8.6 Billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 6.2% during the forecast period (2025-2032).

The medical imaging industry is growing at a rapid pace due to the increasing demand for diagnostic imaging services. The market is expected to reach USD 3.05 billion by 2031. This growth is attributed to the increasing number of elderly people and people with chronic diseases who require regular medical imaging. Additionally, the rise in incidences of cancer and other chronic diseases is fueling the market growth. Increased prevalence of chronic diseases such as cardiovascular and neurologic problems, along with the realignment of healthcare systems have put increased emphasis on early diagnosis.

Latin America has emerged as  the potential medical imaging market on account of rapidly growing prevalence of obesity, diabetes, neurological conditions, cardiovascular dieses. This is especially true in Brazil, Argentina, and Colombia.  As a result, there is growing demand for diagnostic imaging for proper diagnosis. Every year, roughly 3.6 billion diagnostic procedures are conducted worldwide, according to a report issued by the World Health Organization (WHO). Wherein, pediatric patients are subjected to around 350 million examinations. This has encouraged players in the market to perform X-ray, magnetic resonance, and computed tomography scans. In order to prevent the severe expenses on the healthcare, governments across various countries in the region are focusing on early identification of diseases by undertaking numerous awareness campaigns.

Latin America Medical Imaging Market is poised to grow at a sustainable CAGR for the next forecast year.

Latin America Medical Imaging Market Dynamics

Latin America Medical Imaging Market Driver

  • The rising need for early diagnosis of chronic diseases at a lower cost, as well as the rapidly aging population, are expected to drive medical imaging market growth. Aside from that, the introduction of technologically advanced equipment and the improvement of healthcare infrastructure in countries such as Brazil, Argentina, and Mexico will help the regional market grow.

Latin America Medical Imaging Market Restraint

  • One of the primary factors that impedes the Latin America medical imaging market growth is the frequent recalls of imaging equipment. For instance, Canon Medical System Inc. recalled more than 60 Canon Aquilion Prime SP, Multislice Helical CT Scanner, TSX-303B/8L scanners owing to a software fault. This, combined with the existence of a substantial and controlled secondhand equipment market have hindered the adoption of new and innovative technology.
  • Increased number of established and domestic firms have entered the Latin America medical imaging market and started offering healthcare services and refurbished equipment at lower costs. The overall cost-benefit ratio of this refurbished equipment for small and medium-sized healthcare facilities is higher, which has resulted in decreased adoption of new systems and equipment.
