Veterinary Imaging Market to Grow at a CAGR of 6.5% over 2024 to 2032; Rising Pet Ownership to Spur Market Growth

The global veterinary imaging market size was valued at USD 2.07 billion in 2023. The market is expected to grow from USD 2.19 billion in 2024 to USD 3.62 billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period. Fortune Business Insights™ presents this information in its report titled “Veterinary Imaging Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Product Type (X-ray, Ultrasound, Computed Tomography Systems, Magnetic Resonance Imaging Systems, and Others), By Application (Neurology, Oncology, Cardiology, Gynecology, Orthopedics, and Others), By Type (Instruments/Systems, Imaging Reagents, and Imaging Software), By Animal Type (Livestock Animals and Companion Animals), By End-User (Veterinary Hospitals, Diagnostic Imaging Centers, and Others), and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032”.

Veterinary imaging, encompassing reagents, software, and instruments, aids in diagnosing disease such as pneumonia. Radiology and ultrasound are crucial for identifying critical conditions. The growth of the market is driven by the rising pet ownership, increasing occurrence of veterinary diseases, and higher spending on pet wellbeing.

The COVID-19 pandemic led to a decline in the market due to postponed non-essential services, with major players reporting decreased revenue in Q2 2020. The market recovery started in late 2021, with eased guidelines and resumed imaging procedures. By 2022, it approached pre-pandemic levels, with continued growth estimated through 2032 due to rising veterinary appointments and device adoption.
