Blood flow measurement devices are used to measure the volume rate of blood flow, which helps physicians to maintain equilibrium between blood supply and demand of tissue oxygen of patients. The measurement of blood flow helps in identifying blockages in the blood vessels and testing artificial blood vessels during organ transplantation, among others. These devices are imperative for diagnosing various clinical vascular conditions such as arterial occlusion, peripheral vascular diseases including diabetes, micro- and macro-vascular complications. The devices also find applications in skin testing, cerebral blood flow measurement, and burn assessment.
• Based on product, the Blood Flow Measurement Devices Market is categorized into ultrasound and laser Doppler. In 2016, the ultrasound segment commanded the largest share of the global blood flow measurement device market. This growth can be attributed to the growing applications of ultrasound products, such as vascular diseases and dermatology, and their usability in invasive as well as non-invasive applications.
• Based on application, the Blood Flow Measurement Devices Market is segmented into non-invasive applications and invasive applications. Non-invasive applications are further categorized into cardiovascular disease, diabetes, tumor monitoring, gastroenterology, and others applications (dermatology and intracranial pressure monitoring).
