The density of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) units in Swiss hospitals in 2023 stood at 27.32 units per million persons. Forecasts indicate a steady increase, with the values projected to rise from 27.92 in 2024 to 30.28 by 2028. The year-on-year variation shows modest growth, averaging around 2-2.5% annually. Over the last two years (2023-2024 and 2024-2025), the average yearly increase was approximately 2.2%. Analyzing the Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) from 2023 to 2028, the density of MRI units is expected to grow by an average of 2.1% per year.
Future trends to watch for include advancements in MRI technology, potential regulatory changes, and shifts in healthcare demand which may influence the density of MRI units in hospitals. Adoption of AI and machine learning in imaging techniques and improving healthcare access could influence future proliferation and utilization rates. Monitoring these factors could provide more insight into the forecasted growth.
