Pediatric Imaging Market Introduction and Overview 

According to SPER Market Research, the Global Pediatric Imaging Market is estimated to reach USD 18.99 billion by 2034 with a CAGR of 7.68%.

The report includes an in-depth analysis of the Global Pediatric Imaging Market, including market size and trends, product mix, Applications, and supplier analysis. The Global Pediatric Imaging Market was valued at USD 9.76 billion in 2024, and it is expected to rise at a 7.68% CAGR from 2025 to 2034. The increasing prevalence of congenital disorders, cancers, and other pediatric health conditions is driving demand for advanced imaging solutions. High-resolution MRI, PET/CT, and ultrasound technologies are essential for accurate diagnosis, treatment planning, and monitoring in young patients. Customized pediatric healthcare plans focus on safe, effective diagnostics by minimizing radiation exposure, accommodating a child’s size and developmental stage, and addressing condition-specific needs. Technological innovations, including high-field MRI and low-dose CT scanners, enhance image quality while ensuring safety, meeting the growing need for precise, reliable, and child-friendly diagnostic tools, thereby fueling market growth.
Pediatric Imaging Market
By Modality Insights:
The Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) segment holds the largest share in the pediatric imaging market due to its widespread use in diagnosing conditions affecting the brain, abdomen, chest, pelvis, and other areas. Its non-invasive, painless, and safe nature makes it a preferred choice. Rising incidences of pediatric injuries and various health conditions are expected to sustain demand. Meanwhile, the ultrasound segment is gaining traction due to its affordability, convenience, and safety. Advances in functional and anatomic ultrasound have further increased adoption, offering a faster and low-risk alternative to MRI for diagnosis and treatment.

By Application Insights:
The orthopedic application segment led the global pediatric imaging market in 2024, driven by rising cases of unintentional injuries, sports-related accidents, increased outdoor activity, chronic musculoskeletal conditions, congenital abnormalities, and limb deformities in children. Growing demand for diagnostic support from pediatric orthopedists and the adoption of advanced imaging technologies by healthcare providers further boost this segment. The gastroenterology segment is expected to witness the fastest growth due to rising viral, bacterial, and parasitic infections, exposure to toxins, and poor sanitation conditions. Imaging tools like CT, ultrasound, UGI, and fluoroscopy aid in diagnosing these conditions, fueling market expansion in pediatric gastroenterology.

By End-Use Insights:
In 2024, the hospital segment dominated the global pediatric imaging market in terms of revenue. This growth is driven by the widespread adoption of advanced imaging technologies, establishment of dedicated pediatric departments, improvements in healthcare infrastructure, and increased investments by leading healthcare providers. Meanwhile, the diagnostic centers segment is projected to register the fastest growth, supported by the rising number of specialized pediatric diagnostic facilities, streamlined service delivery, and easier accessibility. Compared to larger hospitals, these centers offer quicker, cost-effective imaging solutions, enhancing convenience and driving demand for pediatric imaging services.

Regional Insights:
North America led the global pediatric imaging market in 2024, driven by factors such as increasing cases of premature births, congenital disorders, sports-related injuries, viral and bacterial infections causing gastrointestinal issues, and a rising incidence of childhood cancers. Technological advancements in pediatric imaging equipment and diagnostic tools further support market growth. Additionally, government initiatives aimed at improving child healthcare and welfare contribute to the region’s dominance. These combined factors create strong demand for advanced pediatric imaging solutions, positioning North America as the leading market globally in this sector.



Market Competitive Landscape:
The pediatric imaging market is highly competitive, with several global and regional players sharing market dominance. Leading companies focus on launching new products and expanding distribution networks to strengthen their position. Strategic collaborations also play a key role in enhancing service reach; for instance, Children’s Hospital New Orleans partnered with Cleveland Clinic to provide greater access to board-certified pediatric radiology specialists. Additionally, initiatives like the LEGO Foundation’s donation of LEGO MRI scanners worldwide help hospitals reduce children’s anxiety during scans, reflecting innovative approaches to improving patient experience in the pediatric imaging sector.

Recent Developments:
In 2024, Carestream Health, a leading company in the medical imaging industry, introduced an upgraded DRX-Excel Plus X-ray System. The enhanced system includes an automatic grid-parking feature linked directly to examinations, providing improved support for general radiology and fluoroscopy, particularly during pediatric imaging.
In 2024, Vital, a prominent healthcare technology firm focused on innovation, partnered with Children’s Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA) to launch a patient experience application powered by Artificial Intelligence (AI), designed to enhance pediatric patient management and improve the overall care experience.
