The global medical imaging market has been witnessing a trend of strategic initiatives. The market is highly competitive and to survive the competition, vendors are adopting strategic collaborations and mergers and acquisitions. Leading vendors acquire other complementary players to improve their geographical presence and enhance their expertise. With the growing demand for medical imaging equipment such as MRI, CT Scanners, X-rays systems, SPECT/PET equipment, and ultrasound systems, vendors are looking to implement inorganic growth strategies such as mergers or acquisitions.

Further, the market is highly cost intensive, which will drive the companies to adopt inorganic strategies. These strategies allow the vendors to quickly penetrate the market by leveraging the products of the acquired player. Also, this will enable the companies to capitalize on the existing market presence of the acquired player.

The market has been witnessing upgrades of analog X-ray systems to digital X-ray systems. With the increased cost of digital X-ray systems, manufacturers have found a cost effective solution to convert analog X-ray systems to digital X-ray systems. This can be done by using retrofit kits. Retrofit kits are also used to convert analog X-ray systems into computed radiography systems by harnessing detection devices such as high-density solid scan systems or flat panel detectors. The average cost of a retrofit is approximately $105,000, while a new digital radiography system costs approximately $180,000
