The forecasted data on computed tomography (CT) exams in French hospitals shows a consistent upward trend from 2024 to 2028, with exams per thousand persons increasing steadily each year. This indicates a growing demand or utilization of CT scans within this period. The year-on-year percentage increase remains modest, implying a stable and predictable growth trajectory. As of 2023, the actual number of CT exams per thousand persons was slightly lower than the forecasted figures for 2024 and beyond.

Future trends to watch for include:

The potential impact of healthcare policy changes in France on CT scan availability and access.
Technological advancements that could affect the frequency and type of CT exams performed.
Demographics and chronic disease prevalence influencing increased demand for diagnostic imaging.
Economic factors that could either bolster or constrain healthcare budgets and resource allocation.
