Cardiology is the second-largest generator of patient image data and reports, which need to be stored/archived, analyzed, and managed. This, coupled with hospitals’ need to provide timely, high-quality care to patients, given the urgency of cardiology cases, necessitates a holistic view of cardiac patient data and a well-connected, enterprise-wide hospital informatics infrastructure, propelling the growth of efficient enterprise imaging informatics solutions in the cardiology specialty.
Hospitals face various challenges, such as radiologist/cardiologist burnout, rising costs, huge data silos, decentralized work environments, and the substantial time cardiologists spend on manual reporting. These factors create demand for robust cardiology image and data management, such as cardiology workflow solutions and structured reporting covering the unique needs of cardiology imaging.
Increased disease detection and diagnosis requirements also advance technology innovations across all modalities of cardiology imaging procedures, such as hybrid imaging and fusion imaging. These procedures create highly advanced images in large volumes and require appropriate cardiology diagnosis/interpretation solutions to decode/read and interpret images quickly.
As cardiology datasets increase, on-premises storage solutions will no longer be enough to manage the growing volume of cardiology data. This will drive the adoption of cloud-based cardiology image storage solutions, which are scalable and easily accessible from anywhere. Cardiology picture archive communication systems (PACS) are shifting toward cardiovascular information systems (CVIS) to meet the demand for a comprehensive, 360-degree view of patient health data from multiple disparate systems. CVIS enables a holistic view of a patient’s health parameters and reduces the turnaround time for physicians to examine each patient.
Through this report, Frost & Sullivan seeks to provide stakeholders with insights into the market and enable them to capture the opportunities available over the forecast period.

The Impact of the Top 3 Strategic Imperatives on the Global Cardiology Medical Imaging Informatics Industry
Industry Convergence
Why:
Cardiology data is a combination of semi or unstructured data scattered across institutions in a poorly indexed manner and not well-curated or semantically annotated. There is a need to standardize, synchronize, store, and archive data securely for detailed analysis and workflow assimilations for multimodality review in clinics, hospitals, and universities.
Frost Perspective:
In the next 2–3 years, cross-disciplinary care (multimodality) with pathology, electrophysiology, and cardio-genomics will provide comprehensive cardiology patient care.
All software, technology, and imaging companies will collaborate and co-create holistic, customized solutions and powerful EI systems designed to break down the data silos of hospitals and other providers.
Disruptive Technology
Why:
C-PACS, CVIS, VNA, and EMRs are gaining traction in high-growth economies and good penetration in developed countries.
Existing IT solutions are undergoing upgrades with consolidated solutions for image management across organizations, regions, and developed countries.
Frost Perspective:
In 1–2 years, imaging, technology, and AI firms will redefine the detection and precision medicine of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) by innovating algorithms that integrate with any EMR system, comply with GDPR, ISO, and/or local regulatory bodies, and is device-neutral to detect and treat cardiac care. The goal is to co-create and customize cardiology medical imaging products and architect tools that meet healthcare providers' needs.
Customer Value Chain Compression
Why:
The World Health Organization (WHO) indicates that CVD is the leading cause of death globally at approximately 18 million per year.
According to the Lancet, women, accounting for 35% of global deaths by CVD, are understudied, underdiagnosed, and undertreated.
There is a huge demand for early detection of heart risk to prevent CVDs.
Frost Perspective:
Demand for the prevention of CVDs has driven technological advancements for the early detection of heart risks.
There is a huge focus on cardiac care in ambulatory settings and at-home solutions.
Growth and advancements in remote cardiac patient monitoring will further drive access to healthcare for cardiac patients.
