In 2023, the distribution of computed tomography (CT) scanners across European countries showed distinct variations. Germany, with 3.09 thousand units, leads the region, followed by Italy with 2.42 thousand units. France, despite its size, lags with 1.41 thousand. The year-on-year growth in 2023 was notable in Romania (7.9%), Norway (7.42%), and Lithuania (5.29%), indicating a strong interest in expanding CT capacities. Conversely, Latvia experienced a decline of 1.39%. Over the last five years, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) highlights varying growth across nations, with Romania and Luxembourg standing out for their rapid expansion.
Future trends to watch include the accelerating integration of artificial intelligence in CT diagnostics and an expected increase in scanner units in less saturated markets like Eastern Europe. Additionally, cross-border healthcare policies within the EU may encourage standardization and equitable distribution of these critical diagnostic tools.
