The Ultrasound Market Outlook to 2016 - Regulatory entities have been imposing stringent regulations on imaging equipment manufacturers to lower the patient's exposure to unwanted radiation, and this is favouring the use of ultrasound. There has also been an increase in the use of ultrasound owing to demographic effects and enhanced healthcare initiatives.
Ultrasound is not limited only to basic screening, but rather it is increasingly also being used for cancer detection and therapeutic purposes. Furthermore, developments such as 3D/4D imaging, elastography, and innovations in probe design have stimulated ultrasound sales in the last five years.
The emerging economies of Brazil, Russia, India, and China are for the first time investing in high-end product purchases owing to restructured government healthcare initiatives and the construction of new hospital facilities.
The global ultrasound market has reached saturation. However, innovations in organ-specific imaging and the introduction of elastography features for cancer detection are creating niche markets for ultrasound.
