The Middle East and Africa X-ray imaging devices market size is expected to reach US$ 128.49 million by 2031 from US$ 119.65 million in 2024. The market is estimated to record a CAGR of 1.0% from 2025 to 2031.
The X-ray imaging devices market in the Middle East and Africa (MEA) is experiencing a moderate growth. The market is sustained by significant drivers, including rapid urbanization, increasing government healthcare expenditure, and a growing focus on early diagnosis and non-invasive diagnostic solutions. The rising number of chronic illnesses and an aging population also necessitate better and more efficient diagnostic capabilities. Countries across the region are still investing in their medical infrastructures, with Saudi Arabia being the dominant player.
The market in the MEA region is uniquely segmented, with high-end, technologically advanced systems being procured by state-of-the-art hospitals in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, while more basic, portable, and affordable X-ray imaging devices are in demand across many parts of Africa and less-developed areas. This dual-market dynamic has spurred innovation in a variety of product segments, including point-of-care and handheld X-ray imaging devices.
Key segments that contributed to the derivation of the X-ray imaging devices market analysis are product type, portability, technology, application, and end user.
The Middle East & Africa market for X-Ray imaging devices is experiencing a clear and rapid shift from traditional analog systems to advanced digital radiography. This transition is valued for its benefits, including lower radiation exposure for patients and faster image processing, which enhances workflow efficiency in medical facilities. A key driver for this market is the increasing investment in healthcare infrastructure across the region. Governments, especially in the Middle East, are actively funding the construction of new medical cities, hospitals, and specialized diagnostic centers. This is part of a broader strategy to meet the rising healthcare needs of a growing population and to attract medical tourists. The development of these modern facilities creates a continuous demand for advanced X-ray systems, ranging from fixed units in hospitals to portable devices for remote care.
Based on country, the Middle East and Africa X-ray imaging devices Market is further segmented into Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, Oman, Turkiye, South Africa, Egypt, Nigeria, Algeria, and the Rest of MEA. Saudi Arabia held the largest share in 2024.
Saudi Arabia is a leader in the GCC X-ray imaging devices market. This is due to its large healthcare system, new reforms, and a strong need for diagnostic imaging. The country's plan to modernize its healthcare, which is part of Vision 2030, has led to a quick growth in hospitals, diagnostic centers, and clinics. Additionally, the increasing focus on the privatization of healthcare facilities means that new and existing private players are also heavily investing in advanced technology to attract patients and improve service quality. The market is experiencing a high demand for hospital fixed digital radiography units as well as an increase in demand for mobile and portable devices for remote areas and emergency cases.
The country is also involved in partnerships between the government and private companies, as well as with international groups. This helps bring in new ideas and technology within the country’s healthcare ecosystem. Thus, Saudi Arabia is a key driver for the adoption of X-ray imaging devices in the GCC market, influencing regional trends and expanding the market.
