The Photoacoustic Imaging System Market Size is valued at 81.2 Million in 2022 and is predicted to reach 322.4 Million by the year 2031 at a 16.60 % CAGR during the forecast period for 2023-2031.
Photoacoustic Imaging has emerged as a modality of biomedical imaging that is non-invasive and non-ionizing in vivo with a relatively deep tissue imaging ability. Photoacoustic imaging systems provide multi-contrast, multi-scale imaging and biological features ranging from organelles to organs. Moreover, it offers multiple advantages such as high penetration depth, high image resolution, no harmful ionizing radiation, and molecular targeting at imaging depth, among others. Photoacoustic imaging uses light as a source of excitation and an ultrasonic image to detect sound waves produced by the targets that are optically excited and to form images of optical absorption. In the last two decades, photoacoustic imaging system has been rapidly gaining popularity and explored for biomedical imaging applications. The increasing number of non-communicable diseases and the rising demand for non-invasive imaging are the major factors driving the market growth. The non-communicable diseases such as cancers, diabetes, and chronic kidney disease are increasing rapidly, which is further expected to propel the market growth.
Moreover, rising awareness for early disease diagnosis is also anticipated to boost the adoption of photoacoustic imaging systems across the globe. However, high investment and installation costs are likely to hamper market growth. Conversely, the increasing support from the government and the launch of reimbursement schemes are projected expected to offer lucrative opportunities to the global market.
