(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) Opportunities center on portable cardiac ultrasound, AI-assisted imaging, 3D/Doppler tools, cloud-enabled remote diagnostics and early, noninvasive screeningDublin, Sept. 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Cardiovascular Ultrasound System Market Report 2026" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global cardiovascular ultrasound system market is experiencing strong growth, supported by the rising prevalence of cardiovascular diseases, continued advances in diagnostic imaging and expanding investment in cardiac care infrastructure. The market is projected to increase from $1.73 billion in 2025 to $1.89 billion in 2026, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.8%.
Growth during the historical period was driven by the increasing use of echocardiography as a primary cardiac diagnostic tool, improvements in ultrasound image resolution and accuracy, and greater hospital investment in diagnostic imaging equipment. The expansion of cardiology departments across tertiary care hospitals also strengthened demand for cardiovascular ultrasound systems.
The cardiovascular ultrasound system market is forecast to reach $2.77 billion by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 10%. Key growth factors include increasing demand for early, non-invasive cardiac diagnostics; wider adoption of portable and handheld ultrasound devices; integration of artificial intelligence into cardiac image analysis; and rising screening requirements among aging populations. The continued development of telemedicine and remote cardiac diagnostic services is also expected to create new opportunities for cardiovascular ultrasound technology providers.
Prominent cardiovascular ultrasound market trends include the growing adoption of AI-assisted image interpretation, increased demand for point-of-care ultrasound systems and expanded use of three-dimensional and high-resolution echocardiography. Healthcare providers are also adopting cloud-connected cardiac imaging and data-sharing platforms to support clinical collaboration. In addition, Doppler imaging is becoming increasingly important for advanced assessment of blood flow and cardiovascular function.
The increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases is a major driver of market expansion. Sedentary lifestyles, reduced physical activity, obesity and other risk factors are contributing to a higher incidence of coronary artery disease, heart failure and stroke. These conditions require timely diagnosis, regular monitoring and detailed cardiac imaging. Cardiovascular ultrasound systems provide real-time, non-invasive visualization of heart structures and blood flow, supporting earlier clinical intervention and more informed treatment decisions.
In October 2024, data reported by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention highlighted the continuing burden of cardiovascular disease. The number of reported cardiovascular disease deaths increased from 371,506 cases in 2022 to 919,032 deaths in 2023. The growing clinical and economic impact of heart-related conditions is increasing demand for accurate, accessible and efficient cardiovascular diagnostic imaging.
Innovation remains central to competition within the cardiovascular ultrasound system market. Technology developers are investing in AI-powered image enhancement to improve diagnostic precision, automate measurements and streamline clinical workflows. These capabilities can help clinicians assess cardiac images more efficiently while supporting earlier detection of cardiovascular abnormalities.
In August 2025, Royal Philips launched Transcend Plus for its EPIQ CVx and Affiniti CVx cardiovascular ultrasound systems. The solution combines enhanced image quality with U.S. Food and Drug Administration-cleared AI capabilities. It is designed to improve visualization, automate measurements and increase workflow efficiency, enabling clinicians to make faster and more confident cardiac care decisions.
Strategic acquisitions are also shaping the market's technological development. In May 2023, Koninklijke Philips N.V. acquired DiA Imaging Analysis for approximately $100 million. The acquisition strengthened Philips' cardiovascular ultrasound portfolio through the addition of AI-driven cardiac image analysis capabilities. DiA Imaging Analysis specializes in software that supports automated interpretation and enhanced visualization of cardiac structure and function, improving diagnostic accuracy and echocardiography workflows.
North America was the largest cardiovascular ultrasound system market in 2025, reflecting its advanced healthcare infrastructure, high adoption of diagnostic imaging technologies and significant burden of cardiovascular disease.
