GIA announces the release of a comprehensive
global report on Computed Tomography (CT) Scanners market. Global installed
base of CT Scanners is projected to exceed 67 thousand units by 2017, driven by
the growing healthcare sector in developing countries and continued replacement
of single-slice and obsolete CT scanners by multi-slice machines with advanced
capabilities.
The CT
scanners market has undergone a noticeable change over the years with new and
sophisticated technologies replacing the obsolete ones. Advanced high-slice CT
scanners now offer faster imaging and enhanced imaging area compared to former
counterparts. The next generation of Computed Tomography (CT) Scanners holds
the potential to offer higher resolution cardiovascular and neurology images.
Incorporation of larger detectors enables imaging of more anatomy of the organ
such as whole heart or brain with higher resolution.
The
market continues to remain dynamic as CT scanner vendors divert focus from
increasing slices to fundamental application challenges such as functional
imaging with organ perfusion and tissue characterization, dose management, dual
energy techniques, and advanced visualisation. Companies are also gearing up
towards development of cone beam artifact reduction technologies that reduces
radiation dosage and offer larger coverage.
Another
evolutionary platform is development of systems with multi-energy detector that
can scan tissues at various energy levels simultaneously. A key trend evident
in the CT segment is development of hybrid scanners comprising positron
emission tomographs (PET) and CT technologies. With the combination of CT that
offers anatomical information, precise details on the patient condition can be
obtained, that helps in oncology treatment management.
As
stated by the new market research report on Computed Tomography (CT) Scanners,
the US continues to remain the largest regional market. Developing countries
across the world, led by the BRIC nations, are emerging as lucrative markets
for CT scanners. Currently low CT scanners installation rate of less than 5
units per million people in some of the developing countries underlines the
significant potential for CT scanner manufacturers.
Rapid
economic development is resulting in growing affluence in these countries,
thereby expanding the population base, which can access and afford costly
healthcare processes. In addition, increased focus on healthcare initiatives by
governments is also likely to bolster the medical imaging equipment market in
these countries.
Key
players profiled in the report include GE Healthcare, Siemens Healthcare,
Toshiba Medical Systems, Philips Healthcare, Hitachi Medical Corporation and
Shimadzu Medical Systems.
The
research report titled "Computed Tomography (CT) Scanners: A Global
