Market Insights and Analyst View:

The helical CT scanner market forecast presented in this report can help stakeholders in this marketplace plan their growth strategies.

Helical CT scanners, or spiral CT scanners, are advanced medical imaging devices that utilize a helical scanning method to produce detailed cross-sectional images of the body. With a rising prevalence of chronic diseases and cardiovascular disorders, the need for precise and efficient diagnostic tools, such as helical CT scanners, is also on the rise. Unlike traditional CT scanners, helical scanners feature a continuous rotation of the X-ray source and detectors around the patient.

Increasing focus on advanced imaging capabilities and the demand for higher spatial resolution with faster scan time in diagnostic imaging are the key factors driving the helical CT scanner market growth. Moreover, continuous data acquisition by these scanners allows the generation of high-resolution three-dimensional images, enabling enhanced visualization of internal structures. Ongoing technological advancements in detector technologies, dose reduction techniques, and image reconstruction algorithms continue to improve the performance and safety of helical CT scanners. Helical CT scanner market trends include the integration of artificial intelligence and machine learning in helical CT scanners.

Growth Drivers and Challenges:

Increased Prevalence of Chronic Diseases Fuels Helical CT Scanner Market

A rise in incidences of cardiovascular disorders, cancer, and neurological conditions triggers the need for advanced diagnostic imaging tools capable of providing detailed and precise visualizations of internal anatomical structures. According to the National Center for Health Statistics, ~1.9 million new cancer cases were reported in the US in 2021. Computed tomography is one of the reliable imaging techniques used in cancer diagnoses. As per an article published by Harvard Health in September 2021, nearly 90.0 million CT scan procedures are performed in the US annually. Furthermore, the National Cancer Institute (NCI) reports that the National Lung Screening Trial (NLST), funded by the NCI, revealed that individuals aged 55–74 with a history of heavy smoking have a 20% lower risk of dying from lung cancer after being screened with low-dose helical CT than those who are screened with standard chest X-rays. It is believed that people who have never used tobacco products have too low a chance of developing lung cancer to benefit from lung cancer screening.

With their ability to capture comprehensive 3D images providing dynamic cross-sectional views, helical CT scanners play a pivotal role in diagnosing, staging, and monitoring these diseases. Their versatility and broad applications across various clinical specialties make them indispensable in detecting tumors, assessing vascular conditions, and overall diagnostic imaging. As the burden of cancer and other chronic diseases increases, the demand for precise and efficient diagnostic solutions provided by helical CT scanners becomes ever more pronounced. Thus, the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases and complex medical conditions bolsters the helical CT scanner market size.

Substantial initial investments are required to acquire and install these advanced imaging systems. As a result, many healthcare facilities, especially those from cost-sensitive countries or those with limited financial resources, show reluctance toward adopting this equipment. The high capital expenditure includes the procurement of the scanner, and the costs associated with site planning, infrastructure modifications, installation, and staff training. Additionally, maintenance, upgrades, and personnel training expenses contribute to the total cost of ownership. Such financial commitments have often posed challenges for healthcare providers, particularly in smaller clinics and facilities, in adopting helical CT scanners, which limits their widespread availability and accessibility. Efforts made to address the cost barrier may involve exploring financing options, cost-effective purchasing models, and collaborative partnerships to make these essential diagnostic tools more attainable for a wider range of healthcare settings. Nevertheless, the high installation cost associated with these scanning systems hinders the helical CT scanner market growth.
