Contrast Media Market Growth Driven by Rising Diagnostic Imaging Demand

Posted on 2024-12-04 by researchinsights in Internet & Online // 0 Comments

The global contrast media market size is expected to reach USD 10.74 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 7.98% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The rising prevalence of chronic diseases is fueling the demand for diagnostic imaging treatments, which is propelling the market forward. Imaging studies, such as MRI, have become an important aspect of most disease diagnoses, and the widespread use of imaging technologies in healthcare has boosted the demand for contrast media globally.

Chronic diseases like cancer and diabetes are quickly becoming a major public health concern and are among the leading causes of mortality worldwide, necessitating the development of early detection techniques and effective treatment alternatives. As a result, one of the key drivers of imaging tests and contrast agents is the rising prevalence of complicated comorbidities and long-term disorders, thus boosting the market worldwide.

Due to fewer patient visits to hospitals, the COVID-19 pandemic had a detrimental influence on the global contrast media market. The number of imaging cases in several radiology departments dropped dramatically. Many countries worldwide have begun to rebuild their economy, but it will take time for contrast media utilization rates to return to pre-pandemic levels. Furthermore, with the launch of COVID-19 vaccines and the relaxation of restrictions, raw material imports and exports have begun, indicating that the market will develop at a high rate throughout the projection period.
