Market Overview

The cone beam computed tomography market focuses on imaging systems used mostly for orthopaedic, ENT, and dental diagnostics that offer 3D images with less radiation. With advances in precision medicine and personalised healthcare, there is increased demand for cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). The non invasive, high-precision imaging offered by CBCT reduces risks associated with procedures, expedites treatment regimens, and improves outcomes tailored to each patient's needs. Adoption of CBCT technology has expanded widely in many fields, including orthodontics, endodontics, forensic dentistry, and oral and maxillofacial surgery. CBCT is critical for morphometric analysis, palatal bone evaluations, upper airway assessments, implant site assessments, root canal systems, orthodontic planning, and surgical planning. These qualities demonstrate how crucial it is to the provision of contemporary dental treatment. Additionally, industry expansion is still supported by advancements in imaging technology. New indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO) thin film transistor flat panel detectors (FPDs), such as the X Panel 1717z FDM and X Panel 3030z FDM TG X, were introduced by Detection Technology in May 2024. These devices were created especially for improved CBCT and panoramic dental imaging, which further improved diagnostic performance in the dental field.

Driving factors: Adoption is rising in all medical specialities

CBCT technology, originally developed for dental indications including orthodontics and implantology, is now making its way into otolaryngology, orthopaedics, and interventional radiology. Use of the CBCT in procedures, including ablations and biopsies, is increasing market growth. Technological advancements, including lower doses of radiation and 3D imaging with high resolution, have greatly expanded the CBCT from a diagnostic to a therapeutic modality. New reconstruction methods and image processing algorithms now allow clinicians to visualize complex structures with better clarity. Furthermore, modern CBCT systems now have faster scan times, allowing for fewer motion artefacts from the patient and increased diagnostic efficiency and accuracy in several medical specialities using flat-panel detector technology.

Restraining Factor: Restricted policies for reimbursement

In certain regions, cone beam imaging is more costly because of limits on reimbursement, which causes financial strain for patients and providers. The information obtained with imaging is sensitive; therefore, trust in CBCT technology is impacted by issues pertaining to privacy and data security for patients. In addition, frequent or unnecessary use of CBCT raises concerns about cancer risk, especially in sensitive areas like the head and neck, which is a significant limiter for growth in this market, even if the radiation doses are less than those of conventional CT.

Market Segmentation 

The global Cone Beam Computed Tomography market is divided into application and patient position.

Global Cone Beam Computed Tomography Market, By Application:

Why is the dental implantology segment expected to generate the highest revenue in the global cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) market during the forecast period?

The dental implantology segment led the cone beam computed tomography market, generating the largest revenue share.  The best form of cross-sectional imaging in dentistry is CBCT, which has been shown to be useful for implant therapy. Patients can replace their lost teeth with functional and aesthetic dental restorations with appropriate implant support. CBCT is utilized to evaluate the receiver site after surgery, evaluate bone density, reduce the risk of complications and injury, collect the alveolus profile, and evaluate the implant site. It is expected that these factors will drive market demand for restoration during the forecast period.

The orthodontics segment in the cone beam computed tomography market is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR over the forecast period. CBCT provides precise multi-dimensional images for diagnosis and treatment planning. For orthodontic procedures, this technology has proven to be quite beneficial. The quick commercialisation and development of CBCT technology have increased accessibility and cost while increasing knowledge of its many therapeutic advantages. In the upcoming years, it is anticipated to drive the segment's expansion.

Global Cone Beam Computed Tomography Market, By Patient Position:

What factors make the seated position the dominant segment in terms of market share during the forecast period in the global Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) market?

The seated position segment held the largest market share in the cone beam computed tomography market. The CBCT scan produces better imaging of teeth and other structures than a 2D dental X-ray image. The 3D images can provide such detailed imaging of soft tissue and bone structures that enable precise treatment planning for all procedures. The seated position CBCT scan method had broad acceptance because of its increased accuracy.

The supine position segment in the cone beam computed tomography market is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR over the forecast period. It is frequently employed as the preferred position while creating photos pertaining to the maxillofacial area. Supine patient positions are aided by accessories, including foam pads, harnesses, and head clamps. When doing operations like implant planning and orthodontic surgeries, professionals are increasingly recommending this patient posture.
