One such rapidly advancing technology is Artificial Intelligence (AI), especially incorporated into veterinary radiology and its respective software. It enables automated evaluation of various veterinary radiological parameters and directly uploads x-rays to servers securely. Implementing such AI-based strategies is a progressive step in veterinary practices. For instance, In April 2024, MiReye Imaging launched its unique product line of veterinary X-ray machines that use AI for the diagnosis of diseases in animals.

Furthermore, the rising incidence of zoonotic diseases has increased the demand for effective diagnostic solutions, which is expected to drive market growth. According to 2024 data by WHO, out of the total infectious diseases that occur in the world, 60% are reported to be of zoonotic origin. Moreover, in a 2024 publication, WHO states that in the last 30 years, out of the 30 new pathogens detected among humans, 75% were of animal origin. This compels veterinary professionals to perform in-depth diagnostic evaluations of animals to curb the spread of these zoonotic diseases from animals to humans.

The growing trend of pet humanization and the rising adoption of pet insurance in various countries have increased pet insurance enrollment rates globally. For instance, in a 2023 report by the North American Pet Health Insurance Association (NAPHIA), there are over 5.36 million insured pets in North America, and this number is expected to grow exponentially at a CAGR of 2.17%. Out of these insured pets, dogs account for the highest share of 80.1%, followed by cats with 19.9%. The overall number of pets insured in the U.S. increased from 3.1 million in 2020 to 4.8 million in 2022.
