The number of Computed Tomography (CT) scanners in hospitals in Denmark has shown a steady increase from 210 units in 2013 to 259 units in 2023. Over the past two years, the year-on-year variation was 7.66% in 2021 and 0.40% in 2022, followed by a more moderate increase of 1.97% in 2023. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) averaged 2.49% over the last five years, reflecting a gradual but consistent growth trend.
Looking ahead, based on forecasted data, the number of CT scanners is expected to continue rising, reaching 280 units by 2028. The forecasted five-year CAGR is 1.18%, indicating a more modest annual growth. Nevertheless, the overall five-year growth rate of 6.06% suggests sustained demand for CT scanning capacity in Denmark's healthcare system.
Future trends to watch for include advancements in CT technology that may enhance scanning efficiency and diagnostic accuracy. The integration of AI and machine learning in CT imaging is also likely to drive increased adoption and utility of these devices. Additionally, government investments and healthcare policies could significantly impact the availability and distribution of CT scanners across hospitals in Denmark.
