Brain PET-MRI Systems Market size was estimated at USD 372.2 million in 2024 and USD 823.7 million by the end of 2037, growing at a CAGR of 6.3% during the forecast period, i.e., 2025-2037. In 2025, the industry size of brain PET-MRI systems is evaluated at USD 395.7 million. The demand for neurological advancement is witnessing a rise due to the increased burden of neurological disorders. In evidence, a report published by NLM (National Library of Medicine), in 2020, states that in the past 30 years, the number of deaths due to neurological disorders has increased by 39% and the disability-adjusted life-years has increased by 15%, despite declines in infectious neuro-disorders.
The PET scanning devices are designed to provide enhanced and detailed reports in support of accurate diagnosis for the neurological system. Precise alignment with the anatomical structure and pathological alterations, made its integration with other imaging diagnostic systems as MRI, more frequent. This is further accumulating the urge for additional development in the market. More companies are aiming to build dedicated brain PET inserts that can augment stand-alone MRI systems, which is cheaper than a full hybrid system, making PET/MRI more attractive as a financially reasonable modality.
