Near Infrared Imaging Market Analysis

The demand for near infrared (NIR) imaging is increasing across the world, majorly as a replacement for thermal or far-infrared (FIR) vision used for night vision. The near infrared imaging is considered a powerful approach for several agronomical applications. Additionally, the near infrared imaging is advantageous over thermal vision as the thermal vision only helps to absorb heat and does not produce clear images. Further, the near infrared fluorescence cancer imaging is one of the emerging technique for clinical as well as pre-clinical applications for the management of cancer patients as the NIR offers high spatial resolution, real-time display, portability, and detailed molecular profiling using multiplexed fluorescent probes.

Moreover, light in the near infrared range with a wavelength of 650–900 nm has several advantages over visible-range light that include deeper tissue penetration due to less absorption by hemoglobin and water as well as less auto fluorescence from surrounding tissues.

NIR fluorescence-imaging applications are useful in various medical procedures including cancer and neurological imaging. The NIR applications do not just act as an alternative to the traditional imaging methods, but are also compensatory for various limitations of the conventional imaging techniques by employing unique features such as NIR fluorescence. Thus, the benefits offered by near infrared imaging are also expected to be a prominent factor propelling the market growth during the forecast period.

Near Infrared Imaging Market Overview

The growth of the near infrared imaging market is expected to be responsible due to factors such as increasing number of surgical procedures and advantages offered by near infrared imaging. However, shortage of skilled professionals is expected to hinder the growth of the market to a certain extent. Global near infrared imaging market is segmented by region into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East & Africa and South & Central America. In North America, the US holds a significant share of the near infrared imaging market. Innovations in the NIR imaging systems primarily drive the growth of the market in the country.

Near Infrared Imaging Market Drivers and Opportunities

Increasing Number of Surgical Procedures to Favor Market

The annual Global Survey on Aesthetic/Cosmetic Procedures report in 2022, by the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS) reported that there was an 11.2% increase in the total number of procedures performed by plastic surgeons in 2022. The report also shows that more than 14.9 million surgical procedures were performed globally. Additionally, the survey indicates a consistent increase in aesthetic surgery with a 41.3% rise over the last four years. A rise in surgical procedures has increased the use of visualization equipment to perform the surgery. Microsurgery has been opted by population on a large scale owing to increasing chronic diseases caused by work pressure, stress, improper eating habits, heredity, and exposure to chemicals. Additionally, according to American Society of Plastic Surgeons, an increase in number of several cosmetic surgeries has become one of the major factors for the market growth. Thus growing surgical procedures and rise in the awareness are expected to boost the near infrared imaging market in the coming years.

Emphasis on Medical Tourism – An Opportunity in Near Infrared Imaging Market

Medical tourism is one of the major factors propelling the adoption of medical imaging, including NIR. The medical tourism is rising in Latin America and Asia Pacific. Along with these regions, the Middle East region is also focusing on the medical tourism. The countries in these regions are offering best quality services at the low price. With increasing costs of manufacturing against their practices, the medical device manufacturers are struggling to generate enough revenues in order to please their investors. The emerging markets in the developing economies are expected to be the crucial factor offering better and lucrative growth opportunities for the major market players to expand their business and geographic reach.

The patients travel to other countries to obtain quality treatment with the use of sophisticated and advanced medical technology products, devices, and equipment. Moreover, the domestic medical tourism is also rising in the developing nations.

Additionally, government authorities in Asia Pacific are focusing on strengthening their medical tourism sector, thereby maximizing the flow of revenue. Poland has slowly arisen as the best medical tourism destination in Europe. For instance, in Poland, the costs of medical treatments are lower by 60–80% compared to the costs in rest of the EU countries. The major reason for the growth of the tourism is Poland's recognition and acceptance to the European Union. The rising medical tourism in the emerging nations such as Poland is anticipated to provide significant growth opportunities to the players operating in the market during the forecast period.
