Medical Imaging Equipment - Market Research, Market Share, Market Size, Sales, Demand Forecast, Market Leaders, Company Profiles, Industry Trends

The US market for medical imaging equipment will grow 7.6 percent annually through 2008, driven by more procedures involving diagnostic imaging. Digital radiography equipment and positron emission tomography (PET) scanners will be among the top performers, followed by more established products such as CT, MRI and ultrasound scanners.

This study analyzes the $6.6 billion US medical imaging equipment industry. It presents historical demand data (1993, 1998 and 2003) and forecasts to 2008 and 2013 by equipment type (e.g., conventional and filmless x-ray/radiography, ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography scanning, nuclear medicine, positron emission tomography); and by market (e.g., hospitals, outpatient facilities, physicians’ offices, home health care, dental offices, veterinarians’ offices, educational).

The study also examines the market environment, reviews technology, details industry structure and market share, and profiles 28 leading competitors including General Electric, Royal Philips Electronics, Siemens, Toshiba, Analogic, CTI Molecular Imaging, Eastman Kodak, Varian Medical Systems, and Hitachi.
