The growth of market is attributed to rising number of cases and research and development in the field of breast cancer, and technological enhancement in breast imaging modalities.
The increasing number of breast cancer incidences within the region is estimated to drive the market; the mortality rate caused by breast cancer is approximately 43,000 deaths annually in Latin America and Caribbean according to the Pan America Health Organization.

The flat nature of the images causes difficulties for the physicians to interpret the disease with utmost accuracy all because of overlapping of tissues and calcifications.
With the 3d technology already available in the picture know as digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) allowing the physicians to obtain the 3D image of the breast and analyze it in depth and identify any abnormalities, and provide absolute conclusion on it, making the 2D technology an obsolete.
Due to COVID-19 outbreak market has witnessed lack of availability of screening services, and owing to lockdown procedure implemented by the government has created a disruption to some extent which has lower the demand for mammography, however physicians have reported increasing numbers of screening appointment since last year which is anticipated to drive the market.
