COVID -19 IMPACT ON THE RADIATION DOSE MANAGEMENT MARKET
Several countries across the globe have seen non-urgent diagnostic imaging surgeries being postponed due to the pandemic. These procedures utilize additional resources and increase the risk of complications; depending on the procedure, they also increase the chance of needing equipment, resources, or materials such as hospital beds and PPE.
Growing concerns over radiation exposure
In the last two decades, radiation exposure to patients has increased significantly. This can be attributed to the growing use of radiological procedures such as CT, fluoroscopy, and interventional imaging procedures, coupled with an increase in the radiation doses used in these procedures. In diagnostic imaging modalities, higher tube currents are used for obese patients to improve image quality. Owing to this, the risk of radiation overexposure for obese patients is high.
The radiation dose management solutions segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period
Based on product & service, the radiation dose management market is segmented into radiation dose management solutions and radiation dose management services. The radiation dose management solutions segment is projected to witness the highest growth during the forecast period. The increasing adoption of radiation dose management solutions by healthcare providers owing to the growing regulations regarding ionizing radiation across the globe is the major factor supporting the growth of this segment.
The computed tomography segment accounted for the largest share of the radiation dose management market in 2019
By modality, the radiation dose management market is segmented into computed tomography (CT), fluoroscopy & interventional imaging, mammography, and nuclear medicine. The computed tomography segment accounted for the largest market share in 2019. The large share of this segment can be attributed to the increasing number of CT examinations worldwide and the rising awareness of radiation dose exposure.
Hospitals accounted for the largest share of the radiation dose management market in 2019
Based on end-users, the radiation dose management market is segmented into hospitals, ambulatory care settings, and other end users. The hospital segment accounted for the largest share of the radiation dose management market in 2019. The rising patient population, growing awareness about the benefits of early disease diagnosis, technological advancements in imaging modalities, and the increasing awareness of the harmful effects of radiation exposure are some of the major factors responsible for the high demand for radiation dose management solutions in hospitals.
North America accounted for the largest share of the radiation dose management market in 2019
Based on the region, the radiation dose management market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Rest of the World (RoW). In 2019, North America accounted for the largest share of the radiation dose management market. The large share of North America can be attributed to factors such as the stringent legislative and accreditation requirements regarding the reporting and optimization of radiation doses, high adoption of HCIT technologies, and the presence of stringent regulatory requirements regarding patient safety.
Bayer AG (Germany), GE Healthcare (US), PACSHealth, LLC (US), Sectra Medical Systems (Sweden), Philips Healthcare (Netherlands), Fujifilm Holdings Corporation (Japan), Novarad Corporation (US), Siemens Healthineers (Germany), Agfa HealthCare (Belgium), Canon (Japan), and Qaelum N.V. (Belgium)are the major players in the global radiation dose management market.
