Ultrasound Devices Market - Forecast(2021 - 2026)
The ultrasound devices market is estimated to surpass $8,229m by 2023, growing at a CAGR of 3.7% during the forecast period 2018–2023. The ultrasound devices market is poised to witness significant growth owing to the increasing technological advances in ultrasound systems. Europe region is the largest market for ultrasound devices due to the rising demand for early disease diagnosis in this region.
Ultrasound Devices Market Outlook
Ultrasound devices make use of sound waves with frequencies higher than the human upper audible limit. Typical ultrasound devices operate with frequencies from 20 kHz up to several gigahertz. Ultrasound devices may either be diagnostic or therapeutic in nature. A diagnostic ultrasound, also known as sonography, is an imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to produce images of the different structures inside the body. Similarly, a therapeutic ultrasound makes use of sound waves above the range of human hearing but does not produce image. Its purpose is to interact with tissues in the body in order to either modify or destroy them. The transducer of the ultrasound device produces ultrasound waves that reflect from the boundaries of organs and surrounding fluid, and between regions with differing tissue density and are used to visualize internal body structures such as muscles, blood vessels, tendons, joints, and internal organs to derive the pathology.
This report provides an in-depth analysis of the ultrasound devices market by type, technology, application, end user, and geography. Based on type, the market is majorly segmented into contrast ultrasonography, molecular ultrasonography, elastography, and compression ultrasonography.
The report also analyzes the market taking into consideration the various regions including North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Rest of the world as well as the prominent countries for the ultrasound devices market across these regions. The diagnostic ultrasound technology segment of the ultrasound devices market in Europe was valued at $1,885m in 2017 and is estimated to reach $2,225m by 2023, growing at a CAGR of 2.7% during the forecast period.
Ultrasound Devices Market Growth Drivers
Growing technological advances in ultrasound systems provide ultrasound images with much higher resolutions. Sonoelastography is one among the technological advancements that measures tissue stiffness. These technological advancements increase the clinical and diagnostic applications of ultrasounds. Rising diagnostic ultrasound imaging procedures coupled with increasing awareness about early disease diagnosis are boosting the growth of the ultrasound devices market. Rise in demand for minimally invasive therapies is also influencing the growth of the ultrasound devices market.
Ultrasound Devices Market Challenges
Lack of experienced and skilled sonographers is hampering the growth of the ultrasound devices market. Even if sonographers are available, they are not skilled enough to work in rural conditions. This greatly affects the ultrasound devices market negatively. Limitations in ultrasound Imaging is also restraining the growth of the ultrasound devices market. In most barium exams, computed tomography and MRI are the choices of imaging as ultrasound imaging is not an ideal option while imaging air-filled bowels or organs obscured by the bowel and other situations where air might have filled up. For visualizing the internal structures of bones, other diagnostic imaging sources are used, such as MRI. These limitations in applications also greatly limit the market for ultrasound devices.
