Veterinary x-rays are frequently used to detect ailments in animals. One of the key reasons accelerating the growth of the market is the increasing animal medicalization rates due to the rising demand for pet insurance. Rapid technological advancements in animal health, such as the effective incorporation of teleradiology and radiology information systems are driving the market value.

The COVID-19 pandemic had a positive impact on veterinary X-ray market, owing to increased demand for portable X-ray equipment.
