Rising animal
health expenditure and growing demand for pet insurance, increasing number of
veterinary practitioners in developed regions, and growth in the companion
animals’ market are the primary drivers for the veterinary X-ray market during
the forecast period.

Predicted to grow at a CAGR of 6.4%
during the forecast period, the global Veterinary X-ray Market
is estimated to reach USD 872 million by

On the basis of technology, the market
is segmented into direct radiography (DR), computed radiography (CR), and
film-based radiography systems. The computed radiography systems segment
accounted for the largest share of the market in 2017. Benefits offered by CR
systems over traditional X-ray systems, resulting in a large-scale replacement
of traditional film X-ray systems, is the major factor responsible for the

veterinary X-ray market is segmented into small companion animals and large
animals. The small companion animals segment accounted for the largest share of

for small companion animals.
