This continuous upward trend represents an average annual growth rate over the five-year period, reflecting an ongoing rise in CT utilization.

Key future trends to watch:

Technological advancements could influence the efficiency and accuracy of CT exams, potentially driving further adoption.
Healthcare policies and funding impacting availability and accessibility of CT services will play a critical role.
Demographic shifts, particularly an aging population, may increase demand for diagnostic imaging.
