X-ray Detectors Market by Product Type (FPD, CSI, GADOX, CR, CCD), FOV (Large, Medium, Small), Portability (Portable, Fix), System (New, Retrofit), and Application [Medical (Mammogram, Spine), Dental, Security, Industrial, Veterinary] - Forecast to 2029
The global X-ray detectors market is expected to register a CAGR of 6.0% during the forecast period 2022–2029 to reach $4.30 billion by 2029.

Following a thorough secondary and primary research and in-depth analysis of the market scenario, the report discusses key industry drivers, restraints, challenges, and opportunities for the growth of the global X-ray detectors market.

The growing adoption of digital x-ray detectors, rising demand for x-ray imaging in industrial and security markets, growing geriatric population coupled with rising prevalence of chronic diseases & respiratory infections, and increasing utilization of x-ray detectors for early diagnosis & clinical applications are considered to have a positive impact on the X-ray detectors market.

Based on product type, the flat panel detectors (FPD) segment is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Flat panel detectors are used in digital radiography (DR) for the conversion of x-rays to light (indirect conversion) or charge (direct conversion), which is then interpreted using a thin film transistor (TFT) array. FPD are used for medical imaging (CT, X-ray, mammography) and in several extraoral imaging devices.

Based on application, the security segment is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. X-ray detectors are used for various security applications such as air cargo screening, baggage screening, mail & parcel screening, vehicle screening, port & border protection, and personnel screening (body scanning). X-ray screening systems are used in airports to ensure public safety and prevent lethal attacks and entry of people carrying weapons or illegal items. The growing volume of passengers is expected to increase the demand for security X-ray screening systems.

An in-depth analysis of the geographical scenario of the X-ray detectors market provides detailed qualitative and quantitative insights about five major geographies (North America, Asia-Pacific, Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa) along with the coverage of major countries in each region. In 2022, North America is expected to account for the largest share of the global X-ray detectors market, followed by Europe and Asia Pacific. However, Asia-Pacific is expected to become the fastest-growing regional market during the forecast period. The rapid growth of the market in Asia-Pacific is attributed to the large elderly population living with chronic diseases, rising income levels leading to improving access to healthcare facilities, government initiatives to boost the healthcare sector, and growing adoption of advanced medical technologies.
