The global magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems market is estimated to have a CAGR of 5.8% during the forecast period 2016-2022 and is expected to contribute $7250 million by 2021. Magnetic resonance imaging is a technique that uses radio waves and magnetic field to create detailed images of tissues and organs in the human body. The images given by MRI system is used for diagnosis, treatment, and studying the disease. There are many other imaging technologies that are used in the medical sector, such as X-ray, CT scan, Ultrasound, out of which MRI is the most used technique to diagnose any disease. There are many benefits of MRI over other imaging devices like the speed of MRI is faster, quality of image is clear, produces 3D isotropic images, MRI devices are capable of producing any image on any plane and produces very low or no medical radiation. There are many factors that drives the global magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems market such as rising geriatric population, increasing number of lifestyle oriented diseases like cancer, diabetes and cardiovascular diseases, increasing awareness regarding early age diagnosis, technological advancement in MRI devices, rise the neurological diseases and other nerve related issues, and the rising healthcare expenditure across the globe. The global geriatric population is increasing day by day. In 2014, the estimated number of aged population was around 46.2 million, and this number is expected to increase rapidly during the forecast period. Around 4 out of 5 adults suffer from chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes or CVD diseases. Cancer, CVD and other lifestyle related diseases are increasing by the day that are required to be diagnosed to reduce the rate of death from these chronic diseases. This also acts as a driver in the growth of global magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems market. MRI devices are technological advanced machineries that require highly skilled doctors to operate, this adds up the total cost of MRI services. The MRI devices are highly expensive, and only financially sound hospitals or laboratories are able to buy the MRI machines. The high cost of MRI services act as a barrier towards the growth of global magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems market.
