Increasing incidence of cardiovascular diseases, technological advancements, and advantages of echocardiography over invasive cardiac diagnostic procedures are the major drivers for the cardiovascular ultrasound system market. However, insufficient reimbursement scenario and economic impact of adopting new technologies are restraining the growth of the market.
The cardiovascular ultrasound system market is broadly segmented into test type, technology, device display, end user, and region. Based on test type, the market is categorized into transthoracic echocardiogram, stress echocardiogram, transesophageal echocardiogram, and fetal & intracardiac echocardiogram. The stress echocardiogram segment is expected to account for the largest share of the market in 2016. This is due to the major advantage of the stress echocardiogram that it can provide data of the cardiac muscles and valves before and after the stress of the heart muscle.
On the basis of technology, the cardiovascular ultrasound system market is segmented into 2D, 3D & 4D, and Doppler imaging. The 2D technology is estimated to account for the largest share of the market in 2016, whereas the 3D & 4D technology segment is estimated to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
On the basis of device display, the market is segmented into color display and black & white (B/W) display. The color display segment is expected to register the highest growth in 2016.
End Users:
On the basis of end user, the cardiovascular ultrasound system market is categorized into hospitals, cardiology centers, ambulatory, home care, and other end users (research institutes, medical device and pharmaceutical companies). The hospitals segment is expected to account for the largest share of the market in 2016. The home care & ambulatory segment is estimated to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period due to increase in the usage of echocardiographs at the patient’s house itself.
Europe is expected to account for the largest market share during the forecast period.
The cardiovascular ultrasound system market is divided into four major regions-North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Rest of the World (RoW). In 2016, Europe is expected to account for the largest share of this market, followed by North America. Factors such as growing product commercialization, expansion in clinical applications of HIFU coupled with their early commercialization in Europe, and growing emphasis on non-invasive procedures by patients and physicians are driving the growth of this market
Key Players:
Key players in the cardiovascular ultrasound system market include GE Healthcare (U.S.), Philips healthcare (The Netherlands), Siemens Healthcare (Germany), Hitachi Medical Corporation (Japan), and Toshiba Medical Systems Corporation (Japan).
