Global Market Study on Diagnostic Imaging Devices: Asia-Pacific to Witness Highest Growth by 2020
NEW YORK, Aug. 24, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Diagnostic imaging equipment is primarily used for imaging the human body with the help of various imaging technologies. These devices are used to monitor, diagnose, screen, and treat various medical conditions for effective medical intervention. It has also improved the ability of doctors to treat, diagnose, and detect an injury or disease precisely at an initial stage. In addition, these devices are used to provide information associated with a specific area of the body to be treated or studied. Various advancements in imaging techniques in the field of modern medicine have facilitated the acquisition of information related to the human body for clinical interventions. In addition, advancement in imaging provides practitioners with new tools to improve care in innovative ways. Similarly, widening application of imaging technology led to wide availability of high-tech imaging forms such as computed tomography angiography (CTA), single positron emission computed tomography (SPECT), magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), imaging tests, and magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
North America dominates the global market for diagnostic imaging devices due to rising prevalence of chronic diseases and injuries, and rise with the geriatric population in the region. Asia-Pacific is expected to show high growth rates in the next five years in global diagnostic imaging devices market, with China and India being the fastest growing markets in the Asia-Pacific region. The key driving forces for the diagnostic imaging devices market in developing countries are the large pool of patients, increasing awareness about the disease, improving healthcare infrastructure and rising government funding in the region.
Growing geriatric population, increasing prevalence of chronic diseases and injuries, rising awareness about benefits of early diagnosis of diseases among individuals, technological advancement and widening application of diagnostic imaging devices and increasing funding from government bodies are fuelling the growth of the market. On the other hand, heightened risk of cancer owing to exposure to radiation, shortage of helium for magnetic resonance imaging systems and strict regulatory requirements are major concerns for the market.
