Open MRI Systems Market Growth & Trends

The global open MRI systems market size is expected to reach USD 2.73 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 7.7% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Increasing demand for high strength open MRI systems is expected to drive growth during the forecast period.

Changing lifestyle and increasing prevalence of age-associated chronic conditions including cancers and neurological disorders are among the factors expected to boost the demand for safer and accurate diagnostic imaging devices. Open MRIs are specifically designed to provide comfort to patients, especially children and obese patients.

Limited number of high strength open MRI systems and large number of ongoing studies are expected to widen the scope for growth of the market over the forecast period. Launch of Oasis open MRI 1.2T system by Hitachi and rapid geographic expansion of the company are likely to contribute to the high demand for advanced open MRIs in developed and developing regions.

Increasing number of strategic initiatives such as development of advanced software for open MRI systems and patient-friendly devices with less noise is among the factors expected to propel market growth. Moreover, rising awareness about preventive diagnostics and growing medical tourism in developing regions are some of the factors expected to aid in growth.
