The BRICS magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems market size is expected to reach US$ 3,407.8 million by 2031 from US$ 1,969.8 million in 2024. The market is estimated to record a CAGR of 8.1% from 2025 to 2031.

Executive Summary and BRICS Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Systems Market Analysis:

The BRICS nations collectively represent a diverse and rapidly expanding market for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems. This growth is fueled by a combination of factors, including rising healthcare expenditure, a growing burden of chronic diseases, and a commitment to modernizing healthcare infrastructure. However, the market dynamics and maturity vary significantly among these nations.

China and Russia, in particular, are seeing a strong push towards technological advancement. China's market is the most dynamic, with robust growth in domestic manufacturing, with local players competing with international giants. Both countries are seeing a significant demand for advanced high-field MRI systems in major urban centers and for high-level specialized care. In contrast, countries like Brazil, India, and South Africa face unique challenges and opportunities. While there is a growing demand for high-end systems in private hospitals and urban diagnostic centers, these nations also have a substantial need for more cost-effective solutions. This has led to a considerable market for low-field and refurbished MRI systems, which help to improve access in rural and underserved areas. Common challenges across the BRICS group include the high initial cost of equipment, a shortage of skilled radiologists and technicians, and a lack of consistent reimbursement policies.
