Instrumentation & Equipment: research reports

There is a wide variety of instrumentation and equipment that would be used for a medical purpose. In standard usage, instrumentation would refer to large-scale equipment such as MRI machines, ultrasound machines, immunoanalyzers and hemoanalyzers. It is often used as a descriptor of a machine that provides a testing or assessment of a human being. Reports in this category may also be devices used for surgery, such as laparascopes, endoscopes and arthoscopes.

Durable equipment or DME such as medical beds or chairs, wheelchairs and canes would be part of this category. Reports in this category would provide market share, market sizing, competitor analysis and issues and trends in the overall market.

The growing categories for instruments used in healthcare would be DNA sequencers and high throughput screeners. Mass spectrometers are currently used for a variety of clinical applications. Mass spectrometry (MS) is an assessment technology that identifies the mass-to-charge ratio of charged particles. It is used for assessing the mass of particles, for determining exactly what a partical is , and for elucidating the chemical structures of molecules, such as peptides and other chemical compounds.
