Micro-Magnetic Resonance Imaging Industry Overview
The global micro-magnetic resonance imaging market size was valued at USD 1.5 billion in 2021 and is projected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.3% from 2022 to 2030.
Micro-magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the imaging modality used in preclinical studies to conduct research on small animals for developing novel oncology treatments, identification of new drug candidates and chemical entities to treat cardiological, neurological, and infectious diseases. Due to its non-invasiveness, high spatial resolution, high-definition image quality, and non-ionizing radiation unlike micro-CT and micro-PET, this technique is highly adopted for the study of brain tissues and other soft tissues in small animals.

Studies on small animals like rats, rabbits, and mice, enable researchers to build a bridge between molecular discoveries and clinical implementation in diagnostic and therapeutics. Micro- MRI holds numerous advantages such as minimal site requirement for equipment installation, reduced maintenance cost, accurate animal positioning and monitoring, and non-damaging radiations, which have led to its increased adoption among scientists. Additionally, factors such as a rise in brain tumor screening and diagnosis using high magnetic field MRIs and increased preclinical trials for improved oncology treatment to improve patient outcomes, are responsible for influencing the market growth.
Prostate cancer diagnosis and screening, early detection of liver fibrosis, and novel screening techniques for neurodegenerative conditions are currently being studied in preclinical settings using micro-MRI. Companies such as Bruker, Siemens Healthineer, Mediso, MR Solutions, Aspect Imaging, United Imaging, and Times Medical Systems, are among the major players in the market for micro-magnetic resonance imaging. Integrated PET/Micro- MRI systems developed by companies such as Cubresa Inc. are proving highly efficient to track compound distribution and generate 3D images of biomedical processes in living animals.
Despite, the emergence of this novel screening technique, the outbreak of COVID-19, has led to a decline in the market for micro-magnetic resonance imaging due to a halt in research activities, dramatic decline in the economy, national lockdowns, shutting of logistic services, and limited research scientists at research laboratories due to the fear of virus spread. Manufacturers witnessed the closure of production facilities or operations with reduced capacity, leading to the postponement of sales activities, in turn declining the revenue generated. However, the market for micro-magnetic resonance imaging is said to bounce back by mid-2022.
