The global portable X-ray devices market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.80% in the forecast period 2019-2026.
An x-ray is a form of electromagnetic ionizing radiation that is used to monitor the abnormalities in the body, especially bones. The invention of portable X-ray devices has contributed majorly in the field of point of care diagnostics. These devices are very useful when the treatment has to be completed in a short duration of time. X-ray devices can be folded in a small package for transportation, and medical professionals can directly view the scanned X-ray images on the monitor by connecting the devices to the computer. These devices reduce imaging costs by eliminating the use of X-Ray films. The images formed can be directly sent to the physician in the form of a soft copy.
The market is driven by the growing adoption of portable X-ray devices by healthcare professionals, rise in government investments, technological advancements, and rising trend of home care settings.
The growing demand for portable imaging devices among end users attracts a significant amount for the R&D from multinational firms to invest in this market. Market players who already have their products in the X-ray segment are also investing in the portable X-ray devices market to extend their product portfolio globally. Technological advancements in diagnostic imaging are also fueling the growth of the market. For instance, picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) adopted in various countries in Europe and the U.S. is a medical imaging technology used primarily in healthcare organizations to securely store and digitally transmit electronic images and clinically-relevant reports. The use of PACS eliminates the need to manually file and store, retrieve and send sensitive information, films, and reports.
