Middle East and Africa PACS and RIS Market

Market Introduction

The picture archiving and communication system (PACS) manages, retrieves, stores, and distributes the medical images. In the area of radiology, it is used for sharing and viewing diagnostic images. A radiology information system (RIS) is a software system used for handling medical images and other associated data. RIS retains track of radiology imaging orders and data of bills. It is used along with PACS and vendor-neutral archives (VNAs). RIS manages image archives, keeps records, and billing.

Thus, the affordable price of new generation PACS software is expected to create a significant demand for PACS and RIS in the coming years, which is further anticipated to drive the PACS and RIS market.

The Covid-19 pandemic has redirected focus on the Middle East’s healthcare sectors towards novel diagnostic imaging systems such as PACS and RIS. Virtual doctors and sanitizing robots have been introduced in the UAE, demand for diagnostic imaging systems has ramped up in Egypt and Morocco, and, during the peak of the pandemic, and Gulf nations developed field hospitals in anticipation of increased demand for diagnostic imaging systems. In contrast, the lack of testing capacities continues to be a cause for concern in countries such as Syria, Iraq and Libya. All the above mentioned factors are expected to have significant impact on PACS and RIS market.

Market Overview and Dynamics

The PACS and RIS market in Middle East and Africa is expected to grow from US$ 139.0 million in 2019 to US$ 245.4 million by 2027; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 7.3% from 2020 to 2027. The use of PACS over the conventional hard-copy images provides various advantages for patients and also increases the efficiency of operation in hospitals. PACS are used in hospitals, whereas in traditional paper-based systems, orthopedic films are prone to be misplaced and lost. It is leading to longer examination time, increasing the patient waiting lists, one of the pivotal problems facing the healthcare system. Also, the implementation of PACS facilitates real-time access to patients’ medical records and enables retrieval of historical information for off-site consultations. Hence, PACS helps in providing appropriate treatment for patients, offering significant growth opportunity for the market during the coming years.
