X-Ray Positioning Devices Market Overview

The x-ray positioning devices market size is projected to be valued at US$ 280.91 Mn in 2022 and is expected to rise to US$ 606.46 Mn by 2032. The sales of x-ray positioning devices are expected to grow at a significant CAGR of 8% during the forecast period. Some of the factors propelling the demand for x-ray positioning devices are:

  • The adoption of x-ray positioning devices in diagnostics is becoming more prevalent.
  • The market expansion is aided by the widespread use of wedge x-ray positioning devices in body positioning for radiography, CT, and ultrasound.
  • Due to the growing senior population, head, neck, and brain positioning devices are in huge demand.
  • The bariatric positioning sponges, made of high-density material, are regarded as useful for situating both bariatric and athletic patients.
  • From 2022 to 2032, the market is projected to expand due to the development of cutting-edge products that enhance patient comfort.

X-Radiation (shortened to just X-Ray) is a kind of electromagnetic radiation, ranging from 0.01 to 10 nm and corresponding to frequencies between 30 petahertz to 30 exahertz. They are vital in the field of medical imaging since Wilhelm Rontgen’s discovery that they can be used to identify bone structure.

They can be used to detect fractures, arthritis, blocked blood vessels, bone cancer, breast tumours, digestive problems, osteoporosis, tooth decay and various kinds of infections. There might be several instances where a radiologist is unable to perform an X-Ray without some sort of assistance.

It could be if their patient has a knee injury or even if they have to immobilize a child so that it remains still. That is the sole purpose of the X-Ray positioning devices market. It includes various types of wedge, block and bolster sponge models which are usually made of foam or a special type of coated vinyl. These devices enable the patients to be comfortable and at ease while enabling the radiologist to take the X-ray quickly and efficiently.

Increased Awareness of Early Diagnosis to Generate Sales and Profitable Prospects for Healthcare Institutions

One of the major causes of the rising number of diagnostic imaging tests conducted globally is the increasing burden of chronic illnesses. For example, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that roughly 65 Mn individuals worldwide have the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The demand for x-ray positioning devices is rising as many doctors primarily demand chest x-rays of patients to diagnose heart issues. As a result, the prevalence of these disorders is rising, increasing the need for effective and affordable diagnostic equipment like x-ray positioning devices.

Factors Fueling the Adoption of X-Ray Positioning Devices and Opportunities for Market Players

The expansion of the market is linked to affordable services, supplies, skilled labor, and equipment as compared to other settings, such as hospitals. Diagnostic imaging centers are progressively implementing x-ray positioning devices. As a result, the market is projected to be driven by both the increased adoption of x-ray positioning devices in these centers for early diagnosis and the slow but steady growth of these diagnostic imaging centers in different nations.

The regular introduction of cutting-edge x-ray positioning devices aids is anticipated to affect market dynamics from 2022 to 2029. The demand for x-ray positioning devices is growing as better imaging technologies are developed.

Growing numbers of independent radiography clinics in developing nations are projected to stimulate the industry. Rising collaboration among players and suppliers to broaden their reach is anticipated to have an impact on the penetration and accessibility of x-ray positioning devices. Additionally, the market for x-ray positioning devices is projected to be stimulated throughout the forecast period due to the rising availability of positioning and radiology courses.

X-Ray Positioning Devices market Drivers

X-Rays can be used to detect not only bone fractures but also various forms of cancers, tumours, digestive issues and infections. High frequency of lung cancer around the world due to smoking and/or Air pollution is expected to spur the demand for the X-Ray positioning devices market.

New advancements in X-Ray technology also enable early detection of breast cancer, tumours or other infections. This encourages people to undergo an X-Ray to be able to start the treatment early (if required), thereby boosting the X-Ray positioning devices market as well.

X-Ray Positioning Devices market Restraints

As with all aspects of science, even the field of medicine is rapidly evolving. Point of care diagnostics to determine what is afflicting a patient has improved tremendously and provides far more insight to a doctor today with the help of modern day technology.

This has made the need to undergo an X-Ray limited to only severe cases like head trauma (for an MRI or CT scan) or any other kind of serious issue. This also restrains the growth of the X-Ray positioning devices market. Some positioning devices like sandbags may contain ferromagnetic shavings or iron pellets which can damage MRI scanners or even injure the radiologist or patients in the worst case scenario.

There are several studies which show that X-Ray equipment is all too often overused by medical centres. Insurance agencies have begun to refuse reimbursement in several cases which reduces the motivation for these clinics to invest in expensive X-Ray technology. This also reduces the chance of them requiring equipment sold in the X-Ray positioning devices market.

X-Ray Positioning Devices market Key Regions

North America is the largest X-Ray market at present and is thereby also the largest X-Ray positioning devices market. The demand in this region is from both hospitals as well as private clinics. In addition to this, the introduction of handheld X-ray devices has also spurred the demand for X-ray positioning devices.

The patients requiring an X-Ray in this part of the world are usually (but not always) of an older age group due to the population structure. In Asia and Africa, there is a larger proportion of people below the age of 30 i.e. a younger demographic.

Children in countries like China, India, Thailand or even African nations like Kenya, Nigeria and South Africa might frequently injure themselves while playing or even fracture a limb unfortunately. So manufactures would do well to market their products targeted at youth in the Asia Pacific or African X-Ray positioning devices market.
