Reports
The global open MRI systems market size was valued at US$ 1.7 Bn in 2024 and is projected to reach US$ 3.8 Bn by 2035, expanding at a CAGR of 7.5% from 2025 to 2035. The global open MRI systems Industry is projected to expand at a strong compound annual growth rate (CAGR 7.5%) over the forecast period, leading by the factors such as increasing cases of the disease, the variety of the therapy available to patients and the improvements in the healthcare sector.

The global open MRI systems market is expected to maintain the trend of gradual growth over the forecast period. This growth is majorly attributed to the rising requirement of patient-friendly imaging procedures and progressive changes in diagnostic technology. A significant factor in the increased use of open MRI systems is their better patient comfort, lessening of claustrophobia, and improved access for pediatric and bariatric patients.
Additionally, continuous innovation in magnet design and imaging quality are closing the performance difference between open and closed MRI systems, thus making them more preferred to medical facilities. Nevertheless, the somewhat expensive costs for installation and maintaining the device as well as the lack of high-field open MRI models could limit the growth of the market to some degree.
Besides, the increasing incidence of chronic diseases such as cancer and neurological disorders is pushing the requirement of advanced imaging modalities, thus leading to an increase in market demand. The strategic partnerships between manufacturers and healthcare institutions are also helping the technological innovations and the expansion of product portfolios.
The global open MRI systems market is a major subset of the medical imaging industry, which basically deals with state-of-the-art magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technologies aimed at improvement of patient comfort and the precision of diagnosis. Open MRI devices, in contrast to the conventional closed MRI systems, have a bigger and more user-friendly design that reduces the anxiety of the patients and makes it possible for the ones who suffer from claustrophobia or have some kind of physical limitation for being safely treated.
Such types of systems are majorly seen in hospitals, diagnostic centers, and laboratories to provide detailed images of soft tissues, organs, and the inside body structures. As the demand for non-invasive diagnostic methods rises and the technology keeps on improving, open MRI systems are being accepted by most patients and doctors as their preferred choice.
In addition, the expansion of medical facilities across the globe, the increasing incidences of diseases, and the growing investments in advanced imaging technologies globally are some of the major factors that have propelled the market to grow further.
For instance, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has established new regulations (referred to as "Medical Device Radiological Health Regulations, 2023") that require MRI machines, which include open MRI systems, to undergo a series of tests relating to safety, image quality, electromagnetic compatibility, and labeling prior to receiving a market approval.

| Market Drivers |

The increasing global prevalence of chronic diseases is among the major attributes to the surge in the demand for advanced diagnostic imaging technologies like open MRI systems. With increased aging population, the requirement for non-invasive and precise diagnostic instruments to identify as well as follow the progression of cardiovascular, neurological, and musculoskeletal disorders is becoming higher.
As per the World Health Organization, cardiovascular diseases accounted for most NCD deaths, or at least 19 million deaths in 2021, followed by cancers (10 million), chronic respiratory diseases (4 million), and diabetes (over 2 million including kidney disease deaths caused by diabetes).
Moreover, the rising occurrence of chronic diseases like cancer, diabetes, and arthritis is compelling the medical professionals to use MRI technology for the first time detection and treatment that is effective by the planning.
According to U.S. Control of Disease Control and Prevention, more than 843,000 Americans die of heart disease or stroke every year—that's more than 1 in 4 deaths. These diseases take an economic toll, as well, costing its health care system US$ 233.3 Bn per year and causing loss of US$ 184.6 Bn in productivity on the job. Costs from cardiovascular diseases are projected to hit roughly US$ 2 Tn by 2050.
Open MRI systems are gaining popularity as a result of them being more cost-effective and having more advantages in operations than what it was traditionally thought to be. Hence, they have become a feasible and attractive option for providers seeking to resolve the diagnostic needs of patients in an efficient and cost-saving way.
Open systems usually have less costly installation, maintenance, and operational activities in comparison with conventional closed MRI units. Thus the money saved can be used for the other healthcare initiatives. For instance, at the 78th World Health Assembly, the WHO Member States agreed to a resolution to enhance medical imaging capacity globally. The resolution points out that diagnostic imaging (including MRI) is "a cost-effective method when employed in an appropriate manner," and recommends that steps be taken to lessen the differences in access to imaging services.
Moreover, their small and space-saving layouts make it possible for them to be more easily merged into outpatient centers, diagnostic clinics, and smaller healthcare establishments, thereby leading to the availability of advanced imaging services to the localities of both cities and villages. The adoption of open MRI systems in various medical facilities worldwide is being propelled by this triple of factors comprising price, flexibility, and patient comfort.

Mid-Field remains the key segment for open MRI systems with largest market share of 45.3%. In terms of image quality and patient comfort, it provides the most effective combination-thus, it can offer a diagnostic capability that is significantly better than that of low-field units, while at the same time it does not have the problems of size, cost, and claustrophobia that are associated with high-field scanners. As a result, it is preferred by outpatient clinics, orthopedic and neurology practices, as well as hospitals that are looking for versatile and cost-effective imaging solutions.
The main field strength with the highest share in the open MRI market is thus supported even more by its reliable performance and lower operating complexity. A steady flow of upgrades from outdated low-field systems is sustaining the mid-field trend in the open MRI market.
Their excellent balance between throughput, maintenance requirements, and patient accessibility makes mid-field systems very attractive to demand. The wide range of examinations that can be done in these units without the need for the infrastructure of high-field ones is what clinics most appreciate about them. On top of that, ongoing technological advancements in coil design and image reconstruction are gradually making the mid-field even more dominant.
