The global mixed reality in the healthcare market size accounted for USD 3.28 billion in 2024 and is predicted to reach around USD 7.86 billion by 2034, growing at a CAGR of 9% from 2024 to 2034.
The U.S. mixed reality in the healthcare market size was valued at USD 840 million in 2024 and is expected to be worth around USD 2,220 million by 2034, at a CAGR of 9% from 2024 to 2034.
North America led the global market for mixed reality in healthcare accounting for a revenue share of more than 40% in the year 2023. The rising prevalence of psychological and neurological disorders, technological advancements related to mixed reality products and services, and the presence of numerous market players in the region are some of the prime factors that fuel the market growth. In addition, government support towards the implementation of these technologies in the medical sector to cut the rate of training and upgrade training and education programs is estimated to further propel the market growth.
On the contrary, the Asia Pacific is expected to witness lucrative growth during the forthcoming years due to constant improvement in healthcare infrastructure, rising adoption of digital healthcare solutions, and economic development of the region. Furthermore, the growing prevalence of mental or psychological disorders along with the increasing geriatric population is anticipated to prosper the market growth in the coming years.
Growing awareness related to the implementation of Mixed Reality (MR) technology in surgical as well as other medical processes is expected to be the key factor that propels the market growth for mixed reality in the healthcare market. Implementation of mixed reality in surgical processes reduces human error, enhances patient outcomes, and the efficiency of surgeons overall enhances the healthcare facilities and boosts upcoming innovations in the sector.
Further, its increasing adoption in various training processes across healthcare centers further drives the market growth. Skilled nurses and doctors are very critical to the industry, mixed reality provides simulations and virtual situations that are rare and specific and are very difficult to arrange in a medical center that offers hundreds and thousands of opportunities to train nurses before the actual surgery. In the wake of the same several education, institutes are collaborating with technology providers to inculcate mixed reality in their education system. For instance, in January 2018, Pearson, an education company collaborated with each other to launch apps such as HoloHuman and HoloPatient to provide better training to the students.
Additionally, a prominent rise in research activities for the integration of mixed reality with healthcare facilities such as mental health detection and pain management has attracted several investors in the market. For instance, in April 2020, XRHealth, one of the leading companies in the therapeutic application and mixed reality, announced to raise its fund with USD 7 Million to expand its telehealth platform for supporting a large number of patients and clinicians for augmented/virtual reality therapy.
