3. GE Healthcare (US) and Carestream Health (US) are the Leading Player in the Veterinary Imaging Market

GE Healthcare (US), Carestream Health (US), IDEXX Laboratories, Inc. (US), Agfa-Gevaert N.V. (Belgium), and Esaote S.p.A (Italy) are the leading players in the Veterinary Imaging Market. The veterinary imaging market is expected to reach USD 2.3 billion by 2026 from an estimated USD 1.6 billion in 2021, at a CAGR of 7.0% during the forecast period. Veterinary diagnostic imaging is a non-invasive technique, and it involves the process of creating visual representations of the interior of an animal’s body for clinical analysis, medical intervention, and the visual representation of the function of some organs or tissues. The veterinary imaging market includes different modalities which are used to create images along with reagents (contrast agents) and imaging software.

The global veterinary imaging market offers significant growth opportunities for market players due to factors such as the rising demand for pet insurance, growing animal healthcare expenditure, increasing companion animal population, increasing number of veterinary practitioners and their income levels in developed countries, and the increasing development of innovative products that offer rapid and accurate results. New imaging technologies, such as MRI and CT systems, are expected to witness a slower adoption rate among veterinarians owing to their high price and significant expenditure on maintenance. Also, limited animal healthcare awareness in emerging markets presents a major challenge for their uptake. Moreover, these instruments require skilled technicians to operate and analyze images for accurate diagnosis; the severe shortage of skilled veterinarians is, therefore, expected to limit their adoption.

GE Healthcare is the leading player in the veterinary imaging market. The company’s leading position in the market is mainly due to its diversified product portfolio, active R&D activities, and wide distribution footprint across the globe.

However, the equipment offered by GE Healthcare is relatively more expensive than that of its competitors. Nearly three-quarters of GE Healthcare’s end users are hospitals, with other end users comprising the alternate care market, such as clinics and on-farm customers. The company has a strong brand image owing to its quality products, thus making it the leading player in the veterinary imaging market.
