The VNA & PACS Market is projected to reach $6.50 billion by 2031, at a CAGR of 7.2% from 2024 to 2031. Vendor Neutral Archive (VNA) and Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) are medical image management solutions used in aiding diagnosis, comparing images between patients or within the same patient at different time points to assess the progression of the disease, and evaluating prognosis. These solutions are used to replace physical archiving by storing all medical image datasets digitally in an organized manner. Such solutions also allow for the integration of medical image data with patient data in other records, such as electronic health records (EHR), health information systems (HIS), and radiology information systems (RIS).
The growth of this market is driven by the increasing investments in medical imaging technologies, growing demand for imaging equipment, technological advancements in diagnostic imaging modalities, rising geriatric population leading to increasing imaging volumes, growing big data presence in healthcare, and growing healthcare IT & EHR adoption. Moreover, the integration of PACS/VNA with EMR, the penetration of artificial intelligence (AI) in medical imaging, the rising adoption of hybrid & cloud-based medical imaging solutions, and the rapidly growing telehealth market are expected to offer significant market growth opportunities.
