Segments - Medical Animation Market by Types (2D, 3D, and 4D), Applications (Drug MoA and Patient Education), Therapeutic Areas (Cosmeceutical/Plastic Surgery and Oncology), End-users (Hospitals and Medical Device Manufacturers), and Regions (Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa) - Global Industry Analysis, Growth, Share, Size, Trends, and Forecast 2022 – 2030
The global medical animation market size was valued at around USD 304 million in 2021 and is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 20.9% during the forecast period, 2022–2030. The growth of the market is attributed to rising adoption of medical animation by pharmaceutical and life science companies.
Medical animation is a video or clip created on physiological or surgical topics, biomedical technology, pharmaceutical drug, and on anatomical process with the help of 3D computer graphics. Medical animation provides educational videos, demonstrations, simulation of surgeries, and evaluation of treatment among others. Medical animation aids in the communication of healthcare-related information to the targeted audience by providing a visual representation of complex biological procedures.
The adoption of scientific analysis with animation capabilities helped to develop a link between art and science, and resulted in a new generation of designers for scientific and medical illustrations. Medical animation is used in therapy and traditional classroom learning. Medical animation has various applications among medical professionals and patients.
The COVID-19 pandemic negatively affected industries and economies in several countries, due to travel bans, business shutdowns, and lockdowns. Manufacturing, delivery schedules, and sales of products slowed down, due the outbreak of coronavirus. The Laboratories are sharing genome and protein architectures in open-access databases to combat against the pandemic.
According to the WHO, viruses are evolving at a fast pace and causing new diseases and infections to living beings. Emergence of diseases gave rise to research and development of drugs and vaccines. The global medical animation market is gradually growing, as it aids in creating videos and clips to explain the mechanism of action of new drugs and to spread awareness of vaccines to people.

On the basis of types, the medical animation market is segmented into 2D, 3D, and 4D. The 3D segment is projected to expand at a considerable CAGR during the forecast period, as it provides viewers a sense of perspective and enables clear understanding of key concepts in forensics. The 4D segment is anticipated to account for a major market share during the forecast period, owing to increasing demand for technological advancements and innovations.
Based on applications, the medical animation market is bifurcated into drug MoA and patient education. The patient education segment is expected to hold a significant share of the market in the coming years, due to increasing patient enrolment in disease management or wellness programs. The drug MoA segment accounts for a significant market share, as it helps achieve deep understanding of molecular targets and identify proteins and activated pathways of human body mechanism.
In terms of therapeutic areas, the medical animation market is segregated into cosmeceutical/plastic surgery and oncology. The oncology segment is anticipated to register significant market share in the coming years. Medical animation introduces people to the highly targeted antibody-drug conjugate and explains mechanism of action in solid tumors with the help of graphics and animation. The videos are created to educate oncologists about the complex immunomodulatory effects of a designed drug. The cosmeceutical/plastic surgery segment is anticipated to constitute a key market share during the forecast period, due to the rising geriatric population and growing number of surgeries globally.
On the basis of end-users, the market is divided into hospitals and medical device manufacturers. The medical device manufacturers segment is anticipated to expand at a considerable CAGR during the forecast period, owing to advanced microprocessor design and rapidly evolved computer memory of medical devices. The hospitals segment is projected to register significant market share in the coming years, due to low healthcare literacy among some developing nations.
In terms of regions, the medical animation market is classified as Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. Asia Pacific is expected to constitute a key share of the market during the forecast period, owing to increasing skills of company sales representatives, customer engagement activities, and rising adoption of medical animation for patient education in the region. The market in North America is anticipated to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period, due to growing number of surgeries in the region that require medical animation for illustration purposes.
