AbstractThis Frost & Sullivan research service titled Latin American Diagnostic Imaging Markets provides a thorough overview of the key market drivers, restraints, and trends that are impacting the diagnostic imaging markets and analyses the main trend on three major Latin American countries - Argentina, Brazil, and Mexico. In this research, Frost & Sullivan's expert analysts thoroughly examine the following technologies: ultrasound and computed tomography.

Economic Recovery Spurring Demand for Diagnostic Imaging Equipment
After a period of economic downturn in the beginning of the decade, especially in Argentina and Brazil, the Latin American economy has started to show signs of recovery. This, in turn, is allowing Latin American countries to update their installed equipment base and also to invest on the more advanced technologies. Moreover, the expansion of the private healthcare system in the region is expected to further drive the growth of the diagnostic imaging market. Latent demand for healthcare services, along with the economic stability in Argentina, Brazil, and Mexico, is expected to expand the coverage of private health insurance and cause a positive impact across private healthcare providers and insurers.
With regard to Brazil, the economic recovery that the country has been experiencing is an important driver for its diagnostic imaging market. "Since diagnostic imaging equipment, especially computed tomography (CT) equipment, demand considerable investments from end users, the declining trend of interest rates and the U.S. dollar value compose an interesting scenario for the acquisition of new equipment," notes the analyst of this research service. "However, this driver is expected to have less of an impact in the long run when drivers related to technology enhancements will enhance market revenues."
Expanding Private Sector Driving Demand in Mexico
The thriving private sector is a major driver for the Mexican diagnostic imaging market. Private hospital chains are growing rather fast, boosting market revenues and to some extent neutralizing the seasonal effect of the presidential electoral cycle. The private sector is expected to continue growing until 2010, and the expanding number of patients covered will increase the need for exams and thereby for diagnostic imaging equipment. Additionally, as ultrasound and CT technologies continue to advance, the price of entry level models is seeing a downward trend. This is allowing access for low-end clients to this type of equipment.
Going forward, the sales of ultrasound and CT scanners in Argentina, Brazil, and Mexico is expected to reach $279.4 million in 2010, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.5 percent from 2005 to 2010. "Given its more mature technology stage, ultrasound is expected to grow at a slower pace than computed tomography," says the analyst. "The computed tomography modality is expected to increase its participation in the market, from 37.2 to 40.8 percent during the period 2005 to 2010."
