The growth in the medical image management market is mainly driven by the technological advancements in diagnostic imaging modalities and image management software, growing investments in the medical imaging market, government initiatives to encourage EMR adoption, increasing usage of imaging equipment, growing adoption of image management systems by small hospitals and imaging centers, and rapidly growing big data in healthcare. On the other hand, budgetary constraints and longer product lifecycle of VNA are expected to limit market growth during the forecast period.

Most key players adopted expansions as their primary growth strategy between 2015 and 2018. The medical image management software market is marked by the presence of several big and small players.

As part of its growth strategy, McKesson focuses on product launches to increase its market share in the medical image management market. For instance, in April 2015, McKesson launched Conserus, a suite of flexible, vendor-neutral solutions for healthcare IT enterprise and diagnostic imaging. This vendor-neutral solution enabled the company’s customers to smoothen their workflows by allowing interoperability between the existing systems. The company also engages in inorganic strategies like joint ventures to enhance its position in this market. For instance, in 2017, the company entered into a contribution agreement to form a joint venture to create a new healthcare information technology company—Change Healthcare.
