Molecular imaging is an area of medical imaging that focuses on imaging molecules of medical concern in living patients. It is integrated advanced imaging technology with molecular and cellular biology. It is safe, noninvasive, and painless procedure that is used to diagnose and manage a wide range of diseases such as cardiovascular, neurology, oncology, respiratory, and gastrointestinal. Molecular imaging is field of nuclear medicine. It includes small amount of radioactive materials (radiopharmaceuticals) to diagnose and treat disease. Moreover, molecular imaging helps to physician to disease management and improve personalize patient care.
Market Dynamics
Molecular imaging has become a part of the standard care for various types of cancer. The use of imaging techniques in early cancer detection, treatment response, and new therapy development is steadily growing and has significantly impacted the clinical management of cancer. Thus, increasing awareness of the early diagnosis is likely to boost the demand for diagnostic products such as positron emission tomography (PET), single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT), single-photon emission computed tomography-computed tomography (SPECT-CT), etc. This, in turn, is expected to drive the global molecular imaging market growth. Moreover, a surge in the adoption of technologically advanced products is expected to drive the market growth. For instance, in June 2021, a leading provider of diagnostic imaging systems Canon Medical Systems USA Inc. a leading provider of diagnostic imaging systems, deep Learning Reconstruction (DLR) technology and Advanced intelligent Clear-IQ Engine (AiCE), both used in Cartesion Prime Digital PET/CT system, received 510(k) clearance from the U.S. Food and Drugs Administration (FDA). The Cartesion Prime with AiCE help clinicians consistently and routinely produce high-quality images.
