Clinical research organizations (CROs) assist in the successful implementation of clinical trials through the services offered using high-quality facilities and deep subject matter expertise. CROs have begun acting as a backbone of the clinical trial industry through their efficient and cost-effective operations that benefit trial sponsors. For example, on an average, CROs take 30% lesser time than in-house activity to conduct and complete clinical trials. With the rising number of CROs leading to high competition, some of these businesses offer specialized imaging services, thus emerging as imaging CROs (iCROs). Keosys Medical Imaging and Medica Group PLC are the iCROs examples. The CROs offer key knowledge insights in areas such as site qualification for imaging, acquisition of standardized images, and determination of read designs and criteria, thereby contributing to the growth of the overall South America clinical trial imaging market.
The South America clinical trial imaging market is segmented into Argentina, Brazil, and the Rest of South America. Brazil held the largest share in 2022, and it is expected to register a CAGR of 7.2% during the forecast period. A rise in clinical trials, key innovation by market players, and government initiatives to support clinical trial imaging are a few factors fueling the market growth. Brazil is a major destination for clinical trials. According to Clinical Trials Arena, in 2021, Brazil accounted for 1.7% share of the global clinical trials activity. In July 2022, Boston CRO acquired Rio de Janeiro-based Instituto Brasil de Pesquisa Clinica (IBPClin), the largest research center in the region, describing it as the first step towards Latin America's adoption of its decentralized clinical trial delivery model. It claims to have conducted more than 160 industry-sponsored research studies, enrolling more than 7,000 participants across 12 Brazilian states.
