Report Scope of the U.S. mobile MRI services Market

The major factors attributed to the growth include the convenience and cost-effectiveness of mobile MRI service compared to traditional imaging equipment. The market is further driven by the increasing prevalence of chronic disorders such as cancer, cardiovascular, and neurological conditions. For instance, according to the International agency for cancer research, in 2020 there were about 2,281,658 new cancer cases in the U.S., which is expected to increase to 8,432,938 by 2025.

Factors such as the increasing prevalence of chronic disorders and convenience and cost-effectiveness of mobile MRI service compared to traditional imaging equipment. A mobile MRI is a self-contained facility that includes a scanner, control room, and sometimes a patient changing space. Since the suite is housed on a large trailer/van/tractor that can be moved between different places or directly attached to a building, it is referred to as a mobile unit.

Mobile MRI facilities provide the basis for establishing treatment plans and are used to determine a variety of disorders, by enhancing communication between healthcare providers, which is crucial in delivering the best possible patient care. The information can be accessed remotely and is secure and encrypted to protect individual privacy, patients do not need to travel to hospitals or a specialized imaging facility to pick up their results. Thus, this market holds a high growth potential owing to the benefits provided by mobile MRI facilities aforementioned.

The benefits provided by mobile MRI facilities have been a major factor in driving their adoption by patients and healthcare professionals; the patients can remain in the care of the renowned facility and the comfort of their familiar surroundings while being examined quickly and effectively by mobile imaging staff. Long-term care facilities, people receiving treatment at home, nursing homes and rehabilitation centers, professional sports teams, and occupational medicine practices are all increasingly adopting mobile MRI services.

Moreover, many healthcare facilities that don't have enough patients to warrant the expense of a fixed unit, share the mobile MRI and relocate the unit based on each facility's workload or by a fixed schedule. Thus, they can each gain from the unit's increased revenue and more excellent patient care by splitting the expense. The increasing prevalence of chronic disorders, such as cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), asthma, cancer, and neurological disorders are leading to a growing demand for early diagnosis and treatment. Thus augmenting the adoption of this service. According to the WHO in 2020, the leading cause of death globally was cancer, accounting for about 10 million deaths.
