Magnetic Resonance Imaging Market Overview

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive diagnostic imaging system that utilizes strong magnetic fields and radio waves to generate detailed images of the inside of the body. The contrast agents employed in MRI help to differentiate between benign and malignant tumors by the type of lesions produced. As chronic diseases have increased in developed and developing nations, the requirement for medical imaging has grown considerably. According to the GLOBOCAN Report 2020, ~19.29 million new cancer cases have been reported globally, along with 9.95 million reported deaths caused by the disease. As per OECD Health Statistics data, 50,000 MRI systems are installed worldwide, and over 95 million MRI scans are performed yearly globally. In April 2021, Philips participated in an imperative research project to discover a potentially revolutionary use of MRI technology in cardiology.
