Refurbished Medical Imaging Devices Market Outlook 2025-2034: Market Share, and Growth Analysis

The Refurbished Medical Imaging Devices Market is valued at USD 8.3 billion in 2025 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 8.3% to reach USD 17 billion by 2034.

The Refurbished Medical Imaging Devices Market is rapidly expanding as healthcare providers seek to enhance diagnostic capabilities while managing budget constraints. Refurbished imaging systems - such as MRI, CT scanners, X-ray, ultrasound, and PET devices - offer high-quality diagnostic performance at a fraction of the cost of new equipment. These systems undergo rigorous inspection, repair, component replacement, and recalibration processes to meet original equipment standards. The demand is particularly strong in developing regions, small hospitals, diagnostic labs, and rural clinics that cannot afford new installations. As healthcare access becomes a global priority and imaging becomes central to early disease detection, refurbished devices offer a practical, cost-efficient solution to bridge technological and financial gaps. Rising awareness of circular economy benefits and the environmental impact of discarded electronics is also fueling interest in sustainable procurement. With improving refurbishment technologies and growing trust in certified pre-owned devices, this market segment is increasingly viewed as a viable and strategic investment in modern healthcare delivery.

The refurbished medical imaging devices market experienced notable growth across both developed and emerging markets. Supply chain disruptions and rising costs for new imaging systems led hospitals to adopt refurbished alternatives to expand diagnostic capabilities without long lead times. Major OEMs and third-party refurbishers ramped up their operations, launching warranty-backed refurbished systems with service and support packages. MRI and CT systems led the demand, particularly in public hospitals and diagnostic centers across Asia, Africa, and Latin America. In the U.S. and Europe, small and mid-sized imaging centers expanded their fleets with upgraded used devices to offer more affordable patient imaging services. Regulatory frameworks also saw improvement, with more countries establishing guidelines for the sale, quality control, and serviceability of refurbished medical imaging devices. The integration of digital imaging software, AI-based diagnostics, and remote maintenance into refurbished models further increased their value proposition. This year marked a shift in perception, turning refurbished imaging equipment into a competitive, scalable option for diagnostic expansion.

The refurbished medical imaging devices market is expected to witness sustained momentum, driven by healthcare expansion, rising imaging demands, and environmental considerations. Increasing investments in tele-imaging, teleradiology, and mobile diagnostic units will further elevate the role of refurbished equipment in decentralized healthcare delivery. Technological innovation will improve component longevity, reduce refurbishment turnaround time, and enhance integration with AI diagnostic software. Manufacturers and refurbishers will collaborate more closely to provide hybrid service models, including leasing, device-as-a-service, and subscription-based maintenance. Governments are likely to incentivize refurbished equipment in public procurement, supporting universal health coverage goals. The need for cost-effective imaging in managing chronic diseases and aging populations will further strengthen demand in both inpatient and outpatient care settings. As digital health infrastructure matures, refurbished imaging devices will become key assets in extending diagnostic access, optimizing capital expenditure, and promoting greener healthcare practices across global markets.
