Vietnam Diagnostic Imaging Market to Grow at 5.20% CAGR through 2029

Technological advancements in diagnostic imaging modalities is expected to drive the Vietnam Diagnostic Imaging Market growth in the forecast period, 2025-2029.

 

According to TechSci Research report, “Vietnam Diagnostic Imaging Market –Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition, Forecast & Opportunities, 2019-2029F”, the Vietnam Diagnostic Imaging Market stood at USD 201.04 Million in 2023 and is anticipated to project steady growth in the forecast period with a CAGR of 5.20% through 2029. The Vietnam Diagnostic Imaging Market is undergoing rapid transformation and growth, driven by a combination of demographic shifts, healthcare reforms, technological advancements, and increasing awareness about early disease detection and preventive healthcare. This evolving landscape presents numerous opportunities and challenges for healthcare providers, manufacturers, and policymakers.

Vietnam is experiencing significant demographic changes, including an aging population and a rise in chronic diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, cancer, diabetes, and respiratory conditions. The increasing prevalence of these non-communicable diseases necessitates robust diagnostic capabilities to facilitate early detection, accurate diagnosis, and effective treatment planning. As a result, the demand for advanced diagnostic imaging services is escalating, with modalities such as X-ray, ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and nuclear medicine playing critical roles in the healthcare continuum. The Vietnamese government has been actively investing in healthcare reforms and infrastructure development to enhance healthcare access, quality, and affordability. Initiatives such as the expansion of health insurance coverage, the establishment of new healthcare facilities, and the upgrading of existing infrastructure are significantly boosting the capacity of the healthcare system to deliver diagnostic imaging services. Urban centers like Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi are leading the way with state-of-the-art hospitals and clinics equipped with the latest imaging technologies, while efforts are being made to extend these advancements to rural and underserved areas.

Technological innovation is a major driver in the Vietnam Diagnostic Imaging Market. Advanced imaging technologies, including digital radiography, 3D/4D ultrasound, multi-slice CT, high-field MRI, and positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT), are increasingly being adopted across healthcare facilities. These technologies offer superior image quality, faster scan times, reduced radiation exposure, and enhanced diagnostic accuracy, which are crucial for early disease detection and effective patient management.  The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in diagnostic imaging is beginning to revolutionize the field by enabling more precise image analysis, automated workflows, and predictive analytics.

There is a growing awareness among both healthcare providers and the general public about the importance of preventive healthcare and early disease detection. Regular health check-ups, screening programs, and preventive diagnostic imaging are becoming more common as people recognize the value of early intervention in managing health conditions. Campaigns by healthcare organizations and government agencies are promoting the benefits of regular screenings and diagnostic evaluations, leading to increased utilization of imaging services.

The private healthcare sector in Vietnam is expanding rapidly, contributing significantly to the growth of the diagnostic imaging market. Private hospitals, clinics, and diagnostic centers are investing heavily in advanced imaging equipment to offer high-quality services and attract patients seeking superior care. These private entities often provide a more patient-centric approach, with shorter wait times, personalized services, and modern facilities, making them an attractive option for both domestic and international patients. The growth of medical tourism in Vietnam, driven by competitive pricing and high standards of care, is further boosting the demand for diagnostic imaging services.

Despite the positive outlook, the Vietnam Diagnostic Imaging Market faces several challenges. One of the primary issues is the uneven distribution of imaging facilities, with advanced technologies concentrated in urban areas while rural regions remain underserved. This disparity limits access to high-quality diagnostic services for a significant portion of the population. There is a shortage of skilled healthcare professionals, including radiologists, radiologic technologists, and medical physicists, which hampers the efficient delivery of imaging services and impacts diagnostic accuracy. Another challenge is the high cost of advanced imaging equipment and the associated operational expenses. While urban hospitals and private facilities may afford these investments, smaller clinics and rural healthcare centers often struggle to acquire and maintain state-of-the-art imaging technologies. The rapid pace of technological advancement leads to issues of obsolescence, requiring continuous investment in equipment upgrades and training.

Regulatory and quality assurance issues also pose challenges. Ensuring consistent quality standards and adherence to regulatory requirements across all healthcare facilities is crucial for maintaining the reliability and safety of diagnostic imaging services. There is a need for robust quality assurance programs, standardized protocols, and effective regulatory oversight to address these concerns.

The Vietnam Diagnostic Imaging Market is segmented into type, mobility, source, application, end user, regional distribution, and company.

Based on application, Oncology emerges as the dominant specialty, driven by a combination of factors including the rising incidence of cancer, increased awareness of the importance of early detection, and advancements in imaging technologies specifically tailored for oncological applications. Cancer has become a major public health concern in Vietnam, with increasing cases of lung, breast, liver, and colorectal cancers being reported. This surge in cancer incidence has significantly heightened the demand for sophisticated diagnostic imaging modalities capable of detecting and characterizing tumors at early stages, guiding treatment plans, and monitoring disease progression.

Advanced imaging technologies such as PET-CT, MRI, and high-resolution CT scans play a crucial role in oncology. These modalities provide detailed images that help in the accurate staging of cancer, assessing the extent of disease spread, and evaluating the effectiveness of treatments. PET-CT, in particular, has become an invaluable tool in oncology for its ability to combine metabolic and anatomical imaging, thus offering precise localization of cancerous lesions and aiding in better treatment planning. Hospitals and specialized cancer treatment centers in urban areas like Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi are equipped with state-of-the-art imaging facilities dedicated to oncology. These centers are at the forefront of adopting new technologies and protocols to improve cancer diagnosis and treatment outcomes. The integration of imaging with other advanced therapeutic modalities, such as radiation therapy and targeted therapies, further underscores the critical role of diagnostic imaging in oncology.

Based on region, North Vietnam is the second dominant region in the Vietnam Diagnostic Imaging Market due to its robust healthcare infrastructure, concentration of top-tier medical institutions, and ongoing governmental and private investments in healthcare advancements. The region, particularly Hanoi, the capital city, serves as a central hub for medical innovation and specialized healthcare services, attracting patients from across the northern provinces and even neighboring countries. Hanoi is home to several leading hospitals and medical centers, such as Viet Duc Hospital, Bach Mai Hospital, and the National Cancer Hospital (K Hospital). These institutions are equipped with state-of-the-art diagnostic imaging technologies, including advanced MRI and CT scanners, PET-CT systems, and digital radiography equipment. The presence of these top-tier medical facilities ensures that the region can offer a wide range of diagnostic imaging services, catering to various medical specialties such as cardiology, oncology, neurology, orthopedics, gastroenterology, and gynecology. This comprehensive service offering positions North Vietnam as a key player in the diagnostic imaging market.
