The growth of the AI in medical diagnostics market is being driven by several key factors:
Influx of Big Data: Healthcare organizations are generating massive amounts of data through medical images, electronic health records, genomic sequencing, wearable devices and more. AI can help make sense of this data avalanche and uncover valuable insights for improved decision making.
Increasing Cross-Industry Partnerships: Collaborations between healthcare, tech and pharmaceutical companies are on the rise to develop and commercialize AI tools for medical imaging, personalized medicine, drug discovery and more. For instance, Google Cloud and Mayo Clinic recently partnered to advance imaging AI.
Government Initiatives: Governments globally are launching programs and policies to spur AI adoption in healthcare. In 2021, the US FDA approved 87 AI algorithms, up from just 1 in 2015. The UK, China, India and others are also enacting friendly measures.
Funding for AI Startups: AI medical startups are receiving significant VC funding. In 2021, global healthcare AI startups raised over $9 billion in funding, a 3X increase from 2020. Large tech firms like Google, Microsoft, Amazon are all making big bets.
On the application front, AI is being applied across medical imaging including X-rays, CT, MRI, ultrasound and nuclear imaging. It is helping radiologists detect diseases faster, reduce errors and improve workflow. In vitro diagnostics is another major area where AI is aiding pathology, genetics, blood tests and more.
By end user, hospitals are driving adoption to automate radiology workflows, reduce turnaround times and costs. Imaging centers and diagnostic labs are other key users. Geographically, North America led the AI in medical imaging market in 2022 followed by Europe and Asia Pacific.
However, the growth of AI in medical diagnostics faces some challenges. The shortage of workers with required AI skillsets is a major bottleneck. Regulatory uncertainties around medical software also persists although agencies are working to address them. There are also reservations among some healthcare professionals about reliance on black box algorithms.
Key players in the AI in medical diagnostics market include big tech firms like Microsoft, Google, Nvidia, Intel who provide the underlying software and hardware infrastructure. Healthcare companies such as Siemens Healthineers, GE Healthcare, Philips bring domain expertise. And innovative startups like Aidoc, Viz.ai, Heartflow, Butterfly Network are leading product development.
