Technology Evolution Sparks New Growth for Aging Market

Computed tomography (CT) has made a place for itself in the healthcare field by providing a non-invasive means of examining internal body structures and diagnosing disease. Although the field was nearing maturation several years ago, it has been significantly altered by evolving technology trends which have revitalized the industry.

This Frost & Sullivan research provides a detailed analysis of the U.S. computed tomography markets. By identifying emerging trends and delving into the cardiac and electron beam tomography (EBT) segments, this study supplies your company with valuable information about growth opportunities in this flourishing industry.

Multi-Slice Scanners Revolutionize Field, Propel Sales

The multi-slice scanner has impressed end users by offering increases in the number of slices and sectional thinness, thereby nearing true volumetric scanning. Scan speed has also improved, resulting in a number of single-breath applications that until recently could not be performed with CT scanners. "The introduction of multi-slice CT has been one of the most exciting enhancements ever brought to the market,” says the study’s author. “The technological innovations that have been made within the realm of CT over the past three years are revolutionary and should be the primary drivers for future industry growth."

Cardiac CT, EBT Units Create Lucrative Niche Markets

Cardiac CT and EBT represent an emerging niche within the traditional CT market. Both sectors are expected to focus on cardiac centers within hospitals, freestanding imaging centers, and new preventive screening centers. "It is expected that the cardiac and preventive screening markets will provide additional momentum to revitalize the CT scanner market,” states the analyst. “Although these segments will not represent potential as vast as the radiology market, they will help to expand the installed base of CT scanners.”

This Frost & Sullivan analysis provides a comprehensive guide to the future of the evolving computed tomography marketplace, enabling users to evaluate the industry’s potential and make informed investment decisions.
