The veterinary ultrasound market is dominated by a trio of industry giants: Siemens Healthineers, GE Healthcare, and Esaote, though emerging players like Mindray are rapidly narrowing the gap. Collectively, these incumbents hold over 60% of the market, but competition is fierce, with each brand differentiating through innovation, pricing, and regional focus.

Siemens Healthineers leads with a 32% market share, driven by its high-end systems like the SonoVue, designed for advanced applications such as cardiac ultrasound and tumor imaging. The brand’s reputation for reliability and precision makes it a favorite in specialty clinics, particularly for complex cases involving exotic pets or large animals. GE Healthcare trails closely with 25%, leveraging its portable devices (e.g., Logiq E) to capture small animal practices and rural veterinarians. GE’s strategic acquisitions of veterinary tech startups have expanded its product portfolio, including AI-enhanced models that auto-detect organ abnormalities. Esaote, a European leader, holds 18% with its user-friendly MyLab Xport series, tailored for general practitioners seeking ease of use without compromising quality.

Mindray, a rising star, has disrupted the market with its M9 portable system, priced 35% lower than Siemens’ comparable models, capturing 12% share in 2024. The brand’s focus on affordability and durability (with devices tested for dust and temperature extremes) has made it popular in APAC. Other challengers, like Ultraschallmedizin, specialize in livestock-specific probes, targeting a segment overlooked by larger firms. Incumbents are responding: Siemens introduced a leasing program for its stationary systems, while GE launched a budget-friendly "Essential" line to compete with Mindray. These moves signal a shift toward flexibility, as clinics prioritize cost-efficiency.

The competitive landscape will evolve as R&D investments grow. Partnerships between manufacturers and veterinary associations are expected to rise, enhancing training and device accessibility.
