This expansion in the field of diagnostic imaging, increases the demand for CBCT systems by healthcare institutions to facilitate the changing needs of patient diagnosis and treatment planning. 

Increasing Oral Health Concerns Drive the Demand for CBCT Systems 

Increasing prevalence of oral diseases such as tooth decay, periodontal disease, and oral cancers increases the use of CBCT systems for dental diagnostics and treatment planning. The WHO 2023 reported states that nearly 3.5 billion people around the world suffer from oral diseases, and while the three out of four cases of dental disease patients stayed in middle-income countries during 2022. Such rise in oral health problems as it facilitates effective patient care and preventive dental care through precise diagnosis and imaging. 

Technological Advancement in CBCT Systems Drives Market Expansion 

Advances in CBCT systems are highly driving the market growth by improving diagnostic accuracy and workflow efficiency in medical imaging. Many key players such as Dentsply Sirona, Carestream Dental, Philips, and others in the market are continuously innovating, introducing CBCT products that enhance diagnostic accuracy and streamline workflow efficiency. 

For example, in February 2024, NewTom introduced its 7G multi-scan body CBCT system, that enhances diagnostic capabilities by allowing simultaneous imaging of various anatomical areas. The introduction of such advanced CBCT systems addresses essential patient safety concerns and aligns with the increasing demand for non-invasive imaging solutions across diverse medical fields, further boosting cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) systems market growth.

Alternative Imaging Technologies Prevent the Growth of the CBCT System Market 

The availability of alternative imaging technologies, that encompasses MRI and traditional CT scans, poses a great challenge to the growth of the CBCT system industry. Additionally, alternative imaging technologies tend to offer more cost-effective solutions for healthcare facilities. This financial benefit leads many healthcare providers to choose MRI or conventional CT over CBCT, thereby limiting overall cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) systems market expansion. 

Incorporation of AI in CBCT systems holds much promise for further market expansion. 

The integration of AI into CBCT systems is supposed to open great growth opportunities within the market in terms of high diagnostic accuracy and efficiency. It is also furthered by applications of machine learning for image optimization and predictive analytics, that should simplify workflows and reduce manual labor while enhancing efficiency and precision overall in a broad range of medical applications of CBCT imaging. 

By Patient Position, Floor Mounted CBCT system Dominates the Market 

In the seg market, floor-mounted systems hold a dominating share of about 63% of the market. This substantial share indicates the widespread adoption and preference for floor-mounted CBCT systems in various medical imaging applications. These systems are favored for their stability, ease of access, and efficient workflow integration in healthcare settings. Floor-mounted CBCT systems are essential for providing high-quality imaging capabilities, supporting accurate diagnostics, and improving patient care. The dominance of floor-mounted systems highlights their critical role in advancing medical imaging technology and enhancing operational efficiency in clinical environments. 

By Application, Orthopedic Conditions Holds the Highest CAGR Of 13.25% 

Orthopedic conditions will be the most growth-intensive segment, based on an approximately 13.3% projected CAGR of 2025-2030 period mainly because of growing musculoskeletal disorders, sport injuries, and bone-related cases. Moreover, demand for non-invasive treatment with better and more advanced image resolution is highly supporting the trend for CBCT system adoption in orthopedics. 

North America holds the dominant share in the CBCT system market

North America includes the largest cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) systems market share, due to high healthcare expenditure in the region that spurs providers to invest in such advanced diagnostic technologies to enhance patient care and outcomes. As indicated in the AMA report 2024, spending by the U.S. on healthcare rose to 4.1% in 2022 and hit USD 4.5 trillion in 2023. 

This immense expenditure provides the opportunity for healthcare institutions to employ the latest technology such as CBCT that ensures highly accurate 3D images for critical anatomical examinations. This increased healthcare spending accelerates CBCT adoption for enhancing diagnostic accuracy and operational efficiency in the region. 

Moreover, increase in government investment towards clinical trials further boosts the adoption of CBCT systems in the region by providing funding for advanced diagnostic tools essential for research. CBCT offer precise, high-resolution imaging, critical for evaluating treatment outcomes and improving clinical trial accuracy. 

According to the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, over USD 76.15 million is allocated to 36 clinical trials through the CIHR Clinical Trials Fund since 2022. Such investments enable healthcare providers and research institutions to integrate CBCT technology into their protocols, enhancing diagnostic capabilities and supporting innovative medical research. This integration improves trial efficiency and drives the broader adoption of CBCT systems in clinical and healthcare settings in the region. 

Asia-Pacific is Expected to Show a Steady Growth in the CBCT System Market with a CAGR of 12.2% till 2030

Asia-Pacific CBCT system industry is experiencing growth due to the fact that the region is aging, hence vulnerable to complex medical conditions demanding accurate diagnosis and thereby fueling market growth. CBCT delivers high-resolution 3D imaging, that becomes very important for detecting age-related health problems, such as degeneration of joints, bone density loss, and dental issues. 

The World Economic Forum published a report that states that in 2023, two-thirds percent of the population of Japan is above 65 years numbering 36.23 million. The need for advance diagnostic tools, such as CBCT, would be more poignant with an elderly population increase in the region due to its application in early diagnosis and improved care for the region's aging populations. 

In addition, the oral diseases prevalence within the region that includes tooth decay, periodontal conditions, and oral cancer is further leading to an increasing cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) systems market demand. According to the latest report by the National Board of Examinations, within India, the severe periodontal disease affected 221 million in 2022, that further accounts for 20.3% of global cases. The growing number of oral diseases in the region means that high-tech diagnostic equipment such as CBCT systems are required for proper diagnosis and treatment of dental conditions.
