The need for sophisticated X-ray security screening systems in public places, transportation hubs, and vital infrastructure is rising in response to worries over security threats including terrorism, smuggling, and illegal immigration.

Non-Invasive Screening: The development of non-invasive, less dangerous screening technologies that address privacy and health issues, such millimeter-wave imaging for body scans, is now under process.

North America held a commanding 32.7% revenue share in 2022, dominating the world market for X-ray security screening. This market strength is ascribed to substantial government expenditures made to improve infrastructure for public safety and security, particularly in reaction to threats like terrorism and illegal immigration. Unaffected by the method of transportation, all containers entering the United States are thoroughly scanned by U.S. Customs and Border Protection. This thorough examination goes beyond radiation detection to classify around 5% of containers as "high risk," in which case X-ray or gamma-ray imaging technologies are used to examine them. Throughout the projection period, these elements are expected to fuel demand for X-ray security screening systems in the area.
