PET-CT scans are a comprehensive approach to imaging that combine PET and CT scanners, allowing for more precise and reliable diagnoses of diseases such as heart disease, cancer, and brain disorders. The global PET-CT scanner device market is projected to reach a size of $1.9 billion by 2030, with a growth rate of 5.1% from 2023. The market is driven by the increasing occurrence of chronic illnesses and the growing elderly population. North America dominates the market due to the high incidence of traumatic brain injury cases, while Europe experiences notable growth with the presence of major industry players. Some challenges include the impact of diabetes and motion artifacts on scan outcomes, as well as limitations for very obese individuals and pregnant women. Major players in the market include Siemens, Mediso, Shimadzu, and Hitachi.
