MAMMOGRAPHY MARKET ANALYSIS

Growing emergence of other imaging or detection methods, such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), is expected to hinder the growth of the global mammography market. MRI of the breast, or breast MRI, is a test used to detect breast cancer and other abnormalities in the breast. MRI is much more sensitive compared to mammography and can find invasive breast cancers sooner than mammograms.

Market Opportunities – Increasing Number of Mammography and Biopsy Procedures

Increasing number of mammography and biopsy procedures is expected to offer significant growth opportunities for players in the global mammography market. For instance, according to the data provided by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration’s (USFDA) Mammography Quality Standards Act’s (MQSA) program, around 39,450,489 total annual mammography procedures were reported as of August 1, 2022 globally. Mammography is a specialized medical imaging tool that uses a low-dose x-ray system to see inside the breasts.
