Therefore, the market for veterinary diagnostic imaging is estimated to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period from 2024 to 2030.

VETERINARY DIAGNOSTIC IMAGING MARKET DYNAMICS:

One of the main driver for the veterinary diagnostic imaging is the increasing statistics of various veterinary disorders such as cancer, cardiovascular, urological, and others worldwide.

For instance, according to the latest study done by American Veterinary Medical Association, it was estimated that approximately 1 in 4 dogs will, at some stage in their life, develop neoplasia or tumor. Also, the source concluded that almost half of dogs over the age of 10 will develop cancer in their life. The increasing incidence of cancer among the animals will increase the demand of various diagnostic imaging devices such as endoscopes, ultrasound, and other devices, thereby propelling the overall market growth of the veterinary diagnostic imaging devices.

Further, the increasing adoption of companion and livestock animals will drive the market of the veterinary diagnostic imaging market. In 2022, the Canadian Animal Health Institute (CAHI) shared the results of its 2020 Pet Population Survey which stated that from 2018 to 2020, the Canadian dog population continued to grow, increasing from 7.6 million to 7.7 million, while the population of cats stabilized. Also, the same source stated that cats continue to outnumber dogs, with 8.1 million cats considered household pets in 2020.

Additionally, according to the report by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, as of 2022, Canadian farmers had 11.2 million cattle on their farms. This high number of adopted animals point out the market opportunity for veterinary diagnostic imaging devices in the upcoming years.

In addition, People's Dispensary for Sick Animals, 2022, findings revealed that 51% of the United Kingdom adults owned a pet, out of which 26% of United Kingdom adults had a dog with an estimated population of 9.6 million pet dogs, followed by 24% of the population having a cat with an estimated population of 10.7 million pet cats and 2% of the population having a rabbit with an estimated population of 900 thousand pet rabbits, in 2022. Thus, the increasing number of pets across the globe will increase the overall incidence of diseases and veterinary healthcare expenditure, ultimately spurring the demand of veterinary diagnostic imaging in the market.

Therefore, the factors stated above collectively will drive the overall veterinary diagnostic imaging market during the forecast period from 2024-2030.

However, high cost of veterinary imaging instruments, shortage of skilled veterinary health providers, and others, can hamper the global veterinary diagnostic imaging market growth.

The COVID-19 epidemic has negatively impacted the veterinary diagnostic imaging market as medical facilities for pets suffering from various diseases were halted owing to the imposition of the nationwide lockdown in almost every country, restricting everyone movement & hospital visits, halting supply chains & logistics, hampering the manufacturing process of devices, resulting in a product shortage in the market. Moreover, many elective surgeries for the treatment and management of many diseases were postponed due to the imposition of the lockdown rules. However, with the resumption of activities across healthcare and veterinary industries, there has been rising demand for the veterinary diagnostic imaging devices owing to resumption of hospital and clinic visits of the pets for the diagnosis and treatment of the various disorders. Thus, the post COVID scenario is expected to uplift the veterinary diagnostics imaging market during the forecast period from 2024-2030.

VETERINARY DIAGNOSTIC IMAGING MARKET SEGMENT ANALYSIS:

Veterinary Diagnostic Imaging Market By Equipment (Radiography or X-Ray Systems, Ultrasound Imaging Systems, Computed Tomography Imaging Systems, Magnetic Resonance Imaging Systems, Endoscopy Imaging Systems, and Others), Application (Cardiology, Oncology, Neurology, Orthopedics, and Others), Animal Type (Livestosck Animals and Companion Animals), and Geography (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, And Rest of the World)

In the equipment segment of the veterinary diagnostic imaging market, the radiography or X-rays systems market is expected to have a significant revenue share in the year 2023. This was primarily owing to the wide application circle of the radiography systems. Moreover, the advantages offered by the radiography systems along with the increasing product launches will propel the demand of the radiography systems in the upcoming years.

The radiography devices or systems are easy to use and provide veterinarians with the information needed to make quick decisions and diagnose animals more quickly than other type of equipment. Therefore, they are mostly preferred by veterinarians.

Additionally, these radiography devices can be used in ambulance services, emergency rooms, and point-of-care examinations. Also, they provide rapid response and immediate diagnostics compared to conventional diagnostic devices, which are fixed, bulky, and expensive.

Further, the radiography devices can be used to diagnosis of bone fractures, certain tumors or other abnormal masses, pneumonia, some types of injuries, calcifications, foreign objects, dental problems, and others.

Additionally, the increasing product launches in the market will propel the demand of radiography systems in the upcoming years. For instance, in August 2020, IDEXX Laboratories, Inc., a global leader in veterinary diagnostics and software, announced the expansion of its industry-leading imaging portfolio to include the ImageVue® DR30 Digital Imaging System. It is one the lowest dose radiography system in veterinary medicine and includes the most advanced digital imaging technology in the market.

Thus, due to the interplay of all the advantages and applications mentioned above, this can result in the rising demand for radiography or X-ray systems in the market, which in turn would provide a conducive growth environment for overall veterinary diagnostic imaging market during the market forecast 2024-2030.

NORTH AMERICA IS EXPECTED TO DOMINATE THE OVERALL VETERINARY DIAGNOSTIC IMAGING MARKET:

Among all the regions, North America is expected to dominate the global veterinary diagnostic imaging market in the year 2023 and is expected to do the same during the forecast period from 2024-2030.

Factors such as the increasing prevalence of animal diseases, large number of pet owners in the region, and the rise in the product launches for veterinary diagnostic imaging will increase the demand for veterinary diagnostic imaging devices in the North America market.

For instance, according to American Pet Products Association (APPA) National Pet Owners Survey 2022-2022, around 70% of the United States household have pets, which is around 90.5 million homes own a pet in the country. As per the same source around 69.0 million households are dog owners and approximately 45.3 million households are cat owners. Also, the same source stated that the number of United States households with small animals is 6.2 million, in 2022. The increasing pets in the region will increase the prevalence of various veterinary diseases, thereby increasing the demand of veterinary diagnostic imaging devices.

Further, the increasing pet's expenditure in the United States will increase the overall veterinary healthcare sector, ultimately increasing the veterinary diagnostic imaging market. According to the APPA 2022-2022, an annual routine visit for dogs costs USD 242 million, while it costs USD 178 million for cats in the country. Also the source stated that in 2020, USD 99 billion was spent on pets in the United States.

Additionally, presence of key players in the region and the various activities such as product launches, approvals, acquisitions, and others performed by them will propel the demand of veterinary diagnostic imaging devices in the region. For instance, in February 2022, FUJIFILM Medical Systems U.S.A., Inc., a leading provider of diagnostic imaging and medical informatics solutions, introduced its first complete VXR Veterinary X-Ray Room in the United States. The innovative design of this new X-ray room is targeted for veterinarians who want to transition to high quality, low-dose X-rays with an affordable, versatile, easy to use, and easy to install system.

Therefore, the interplay of the aforementioned factors above would provide a conducive growth environment for the North American region in the veterinary diagnostic imaging market.
