The top three product segments are discussed below:

General X-ray equipment market in APAC


General X-ray equipment market in APAC is growing at a substantial rate and it accounted for the highest share in the medical imaging market in APAC in 2016. This segment witnessed an immense growth due to the diverse technological advances such as the higher adoption of advanced digital portable devices with high operational functionality. Continuous R&D efforts from global manufacturers to innovate and improve the techniques to deliver an accurate diagnosis, for treatment of various diseases will propel the growth of the market.

According to Barath Palada, a lead analyst at Technavio for medical imaging research, The advances in healthcare facilities and the increased awareness about digital X-ray imaging because of various programs created a positive impact on market growth. Apart from this, the outspread application of general X-rays such as interventional X-ray, mammography, and general radiography have been witnessing higher demand in APAC. This is driven by the increased need for non-surgical procedures."

Ultrasound equipment market in APAC

Technological advances are the key reason for the growth of the market. For instance, the adoption of latest 4D and 5D technologies by diagnostic centers led to the early detection of some complications. Various advantages that were provided by the 3D/4D ultrasound include better visualization of dense breast tissue screening, and this awareness was spread through various programs led by the governments of various countries such as Australia, Japan, and South Korea. This had a positive impact on the growth of the market.

"Automated breast imaging system is one of the techniques being opted for breast cancer detection. In addition, MR-guided focused ultrasound technology is in practice for the detection of conditions such as uterine fibroids. Therefore, the diagnostic and imaging centers are adopting this technology for early preventive and diagnostic measures," says Barath.

MRI equipment market in APAC

Magnetic resonance imaging equipment market in APAC is growing at a faster rate due to increasing awareness and technological advances. Furthermore, other advantages such as 3D imaging through magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasound help in determining the pattern of the disease in a better way. Faster regulatory approvals and addition of reimbursement policies are the major market drivers. The upgradation of software applications and increase in MRI compatible interventional procedures for treating chronic disorders are also expected to drive market growth.

Vendors are expanding their product portfolio of 3D medical imaging through MRI that helps them to increase their market share. For instance, GE Healthcare expanded its business in MRI through the acquisition of Steady State Imaging for MRI technology in April 2014.

Some of the vendors highlighted by Technavio's market research analysts in this report are:

  • GE Healthcare
