The use of medical imaging techniques, including ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and X-ray scans, is a vital element of medical practice due to their ability to confirm the diagnosis of any condition in the patients. However, traditional medical imaging platforms have to be fixed in a dedicated space in the medical facility, are expensive, and require considerable installation time. These limitations necessitate the development of novel mobile medical imaging systems that offer greater flexibility and cost-effective solutions for health professionals to perform diagnostic imaging in different clinical settings and provide greater convenience to patients.

This GO-TE report has a global scope and covers innovations in mobile medical imaging systems, including mobile ultrasound scanners, CT scanners, X-ray scanners, and MRI scanners. It studies some of the path-breaking innovators in this space and the technology readiness levels.

Frost & Sullivan investigated notable government and private funding activities and discussed mobile medical imaging systems' growth opportunities. We also highlight critical patents filed by technology developers in the last three years.
