At 4.6% CAGR, the South & Central America Diagnostic Imaging Market is speculated to be worth US$ 2,495.07 million by 2028, says Business Market Insights   

According to Business Market Insights’ research, the South & Central America diagnostic imaging market was valued at US$ 1,909.68 million in 2021 and is expected to reach US$ 2,495.07 million by 2028, registering an annual growth rate of 4.6% from 2021 to 2028. Heighten use of artificial intelligence (ai) and analytics in diagnostic imaging equipment and advancing technological advancements in diagnostic imaging equipment.                

Artificial intelligence helps improve numerous aspects of the healthcare industry, and diagnostic imaging technique is one of the fields that would benefit greatly. Diagnostic imaging equipment manufacturers worldwide are integrating AI into their products. For example, in September 2018, Nvidia announced launching the Nvidia Clara platform, a combination of software and hardware working together in diagnostic imaging equipment. Such ground-breaking technology can address the challenges of medical instruments and process enormous amounts of data generated every second that doctors and scientists can easily interpret. Additionally, in August 2018, Google's DeepMind announced launching an AI system that can quickly detect over 50 eye disorders using routine medical scans. DeepMind's AI assistant for diagnostic imaging can automatically tackle eye-related issues by identifying disease symptoms within seconds and prioritizing patients who seek urgent care. AI supportive diagnostic imaging equipment play a vital role in diagnosing and classifying cancers. AI plays a pivotal role in the automated recognition of features from sample medical images while performing diagnostic imaging tasks. For example, automated AI applications enhanced clinicians' qualitative potentials, including detection of numerous tumor lesions at a time among patients, prediction of the resultant tumor by referring to the various databases within a short period, translation of phenotypic variations to genotypic, and persistent monitoring of patients. Further, AI generalizes disease imaging techniques with minimal errors resulting in an earlier and more significant diagnosis of diseases.  

On the contrary, shortage of skilled healthcare professionals and high costs related to diagnostic imaging equipment.
