The current status of image storage and management is evolving beyond traditional PACS. Since its introduction, VNA has established its stronghold in the image management market and is changing how healthcare facilities store, retrieve, and manage patient data. Apart from exclusive VNA vendors, PACS vendors have also ventured into this market to tackle the overwhelming cannibalization by VNA. VNA was introduced in the 2000s, and its popularity is phenomenal. As healthcare systems are increasingly facing the demand for better information storage, sharing, and transmission needs, compliance with Meaningful Use criteria, and efficiency improvements, VNAs will gradually become indispensable for healthcare organizations.
Information technologies in healthcare are rapidly evolving, and the cost of keeping up with such developments is high. Therefore, healthcare systems needing to decide on significant investments in PACS or VNA must contemplate how their current needs may change over time. Hence, hospitals and healthcare organizations desire a management solution that can be easily adopted today and eventually evolve and solve future contingencies.

Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) facilitates short- and long-term storage, retrieval, management, distribution, and presentation of medical images. PACS allows healthcare systems to manage images on departmental and enterprise levels. While investing in a PACS solution, a hospital system has to consider the environment of deployment. Major components of PACS are imaging modalities, a secure online network for distribution and information exchange, workstations, and a secure cloud or local server. Healthcare systems can be motivated to install, upgrade, or replace PACS by workflow inadequacies or evolution and a desire for PACS that allows them to store and retrieve images within one repository.
Rapid evolution and adoption of health information technology support the demand for PACS. The growth of this market will be driven by government reforms and initiatives toward healthcare centralization. Penetration of PACS into specialties such as endoscopy and oncology will lead to additional PACS applications and, thus, market growth. Furthermore, features such as integrated speech recognition and advanced clinical decision support systems will also contribute to the expansion of the PACS market.
Geographically, the global VNA and PACS market is cumulative for North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America.
North America is observed as the largest market for VNA and PACS. It is suggested that through supportive legal reforms such as the HITECH Act and the ACA, the U.S. market is expected to witness high adoption of VNAs and EMRs. An intensive focus on government rewards for data consolidation and exchange and region-wide installation of clinical archiving in the U.S. and Canada further strengthens the position of the North American market. Offered benefits from installing VNA and PACS, such as cost savings, multiple consultations, and patient satisfaction, are certainly additional factors that support the demand for VNA and PACS from a longer perspective.
Moreover, the escalating need for healthcare providers to efficiently manage records of claims and reimbursements also facilitates the growth of the VNA and PACS markets in North America and Europe. Asia Pacific is anticipated to witness the fastest market growth during the forecast period. Healthcare IT reforms in Australia, Japan, and Canada and the growing reach of healthcare enterprises in countries such as India, Korea, and the Philippines drive market growth in this region.
