The global handheld ultrasound devices market size is anticipated to reach USD 437.7 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 5.6% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. An increase in patient preference for minimally invasive procedures, rise in the utilization of imaging devices in medical emergencies, also rapid advancements in healthcare technology are key contributors to the market growth. The growing focus on point-of-care ultrasonography and the instantaneous and speedy estimating capabilities of handheld ultrasound devices drive the market growth. The demand for real-time delivery and image-based diagnostic systems has increased, contributing to the market's expansion. Due to their compact size, these devices are ideal for physicians, nurses, and sonographers when traveling to a patient. Doctors can carry them comfortably in their pockets or folders.
In addition, wireless ultrasound devices have made image-seizing for detection and treatment convenient. Hence, using these devices helps avoid complications associated with invasive surgeries. Consequently, surgeons increasingly shift toward noninvasive techniques, such as handheld ultrasound devices. These factors are expected to propel the growth of the market. The increasing product adoption for diagnosis and treatment is boosting the market growth. Handheld ultrasounds are also used in various applications, such as bladder volume, abdominal screening, obstetrics, musculoskeletal, and ultrasound-guided treatment. For instance, as per the World Health Organization (WHO) report of July 2022, about 1.71 billion people suffer from musculoskeletal conditions worldwide. Also, therapeutic handheld ultrasound devices support minimally invasive surgery.
Based on technology, the 3D/4D ultrasound segment dominated the market in 2023 with the largest share due to improved visualization, enhanced diagnostic accuracy, and technological advancement
Based on application, the musculoskeletal segment dominated the market in 2023 with the highest share owing to the increasing geriatric population globally as there is an increasing prevalence of musculoskeletal conditions, such as fractures and osteoarthritis, in aging populations
The hospitals segment held the largest share in 2023 as hospitals conduct more ultrasound studies, in terms of quantity and variety, than any other healthcare setting
North America dominated the overall market with the highest revenue share in 2023 owing to the development of a sophisticated healthcare system, a rise in the incidence of infectious diseases & illnesses, and a growing focus on developing novel goods
