The Middle East magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems market size is expected to reach US$ 268.5 million by 2031 from US$ 226.2 million in 2024. The market is estimated to record a CAGR of 2.5% from 2025 to 2031.

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

The Middle East MRI systems market shows a mix of growth potential and structural challenges. While the GCC countries are leading with advanced installations and strong government backing, several other nations such as Jordan, and Lebanon are still in earlier stages of adoption due to limited resources and infrastructure. The demand for MRI is rising as neurological disorders, cancers, and cardiovascular diseases become more common, creating pressure to improve diagnostic capacity. Governments are gradually investing in modernizing healthcare systems, with some support from international partnerships and private-sector initiatives. However, affordability, uneven distribution of advanced facilities, and a shortage of trained radiologists continue to restrict wider adoption. Despite these challenges, the region is witnessing slow but steady growth, with high-field MRI systems expected to see greater uptake as healthcare reforms progress.
