Mexico CT Scan Market to Grow with a CAGR of 8.10% through 2030

Rising Burden of Chronic and Lifestyle Diseases and Increasing Geriatric Population and Trauma Cases are expected to drive the Mexico CT Scan Market growth in the forecast period, 2026-2030

According to TechSci Research report, “Mexico CT Scan Market – By Region, Competition, Forecast & Opportunities, 2030F”, the Mexico CT Scan Market stood at USD 74.95 Million in 2024 and is anticipated to grow with a CAGR of 8.10% in the forecast period.

The continued expansion of Mexico’s healthcare infrastructure across both public and private sectors is playing a pivotal role in accelerating the deployment of CT imaging systems nationwide. Public institutions such as IMSS (Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social) and ISSSTE are actively investing in the modernization of radiology departments by procuring mid- and high-end CT scanners, aimed at improving diagnostic accuracy and handling increasing patient volumes. In parallel, the private healthcare sector is making strategic investments in cutting-edge imaging technologies to upgrade diagnostic capabilities, particularly in key urban centers and regions catering to medical tourism. These infrastructure enhancements are generating a robust and sustained procurement pipeline for CT system manufacturers and service providers.

Complementing these infrastructure developments are government healthcare policies designed to expand diagnostic access as part of broader universal health coverage initiatives. The strengthening of INSABI (Instituto de Salud para el Bienestar) has resulted in targeted investments in radiological equipment for public hospitals and rural facilities, narrowing the diagnostic gap in underserved regions. Moreover, the implementation of public-private partnerships (PPPs) is enabling broader adoption of advanced CT technologies in public institutions by distributing capital and operational responsibilities. These policy-driven mechanisms are directly enhancing imaging capacity across the country, making CT scans more accessible to a wider patient base.

Technological innovation is also a key growth lever. The introduction of low-dose CT systems, faster scanning protocols, and AI-powered reconstruction algorithms is significantly improving image quality and patient safety while streamlining workflows. Additionally, compact and portable CT scanners are gaining market traction, particularly in emergency rooms, trauma centers, and secondary care hospitals, where mobility and space efficiency are critical. As manufacturers focus on user-friendly, energy-efficient, and scalable solutions, adoption is accelerating across both large institutions and smaller outpatient settings.

However, despite these advancements, a critical barrier to market optimization lies in the shortage of qualified personnel. There is a persistent human resource gap in radiology, especially outside of major metropolitan areas. Many hospitals, even those equipped with modern CT infrastructure, face underutilization due to a shortfall in trained radiologists, CT technologists, and biomedical engineers. This staffing deficit often results in suboptimal scan quality, longer turnaround times, and limited throughput, undermining both clinical outcomes and equipment ROI. Compounding the issue, training programs remain unevenly distributed, and retention of skilled professionals in public facilities remains a challenge due to workload, compensation, and career development limitations.

The Mexico CT Scan Market is segmented into technology, application, modality, end user, regional distribution, and company.

Based on its application, the oncology segment has emerged as the predominant market leader, Cancer has become one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in Mexico. According to the Mexican Ministry of Health and international cancer registries, the country continues to experience a rise in new cancer cases, particularly lung, breast, colorectal, prostate, and liver cancers. These conditions often require high-resolution imaging for early detection, staging, and treatment planning. CT scans are integral to this process, offering cross-sectional imaging that allows clinicians to identify tumor size, location, lymph node involvement, and metastatic spread. In many cases, CT is the first-line imaging modality used in oncological diagnostics and monitoring, especially in combination with PET in hybrid PET/CT systems.

Major oncology centers and tertiary-care hospitals across Mexico particularly in Mexico City, Monterrey, and Guadalajara routinely integrate CT scanning into cancer screening programs, biopsy guidance, radiation therapy planning, and post-treatment follow-up. Public institutions such as the Instituto Nacional de Cancerología (INCan) and oncology departments within IMSS and ISSSTE hospitals have made CT systems a core part of their diagnostic infrastructure. The adoption of AI-enhanced CT imaging and low-dose protocols further supports the use of CT in longitudinal cancer care, allowing for frequent scans with reduced patient radiation exposure. This makes CT not only effective but also safe for repeated imaging throughout a patient’s treatment journey. Mexico is also witnessing increased deployment of PET/CT systems, especially in high-end cancer care centers. These hybrid imaging technologies combine metabolic and anatomical data to deliver more precise tumor localization and treatment response evaluation, particularly in cases of lymphoma, lung cancer, and head-and-neck malignancies. This trend is driving higher demand for high-slice CT systems and contrast-enhanced imaging, further reinforcing oncology’s dominance in the CT application landscape.
