MRI
MRI contributed the maximum share to the global mobile medical imaging services market. An MRI scan is a radiology technique that creates detailed images of the internal organs and tissues of the body. MRI scanners have a wide range of applications such as diagnosing abnormalities of the brain, spinal cord, tumors, cysts and other abnormalities in various parts of the body, injuries or abnormalities of the joints such as back pain, certain heart problems, and diseases of the liver and other abdominal organs.
According to Ramakrishna Edupulapati, a lead analyst at Technavio for medical imaging research, "Mobile MRI services are increasingly being demanded by the end-users' due to advantages like elimination of investment on purchase, installation, and maintenance of the device, ability to alter locations based on volume of individuals, shorter installation time with fewer logistics issues, equivalent imaging quality compared with fixed MRI machine, and less stringent regulatory requirements for mobile MRI."
CT
Mobile CT imaging services account for the second largest share in the global mobile medical imaging services market. A CT scan uses X-rays to make detailed pictures of internal structures inside of the body. CT scans are the most commonly preferred imaging solution for brain. CT scans aid in determining the cause of stroke and to assess serious head injuries.
"CT scans are also used for detecting abnormalities in the body such as tumors, abscesses, abnormal blood vessels when they are suspected by symptoms or other tests, to pinpoint the exact site of tumors prior to radiotherapy, and to help doctors find the right place to take tissue samples," says Ramakrishna.
Mobile CT machines are increasingly being used by the end-users' due to advantages like lower initial investments, the ability to test demand for CT scanner before purchasing fixed CT scanner, and shorter installation time with fewer logistics issues. Some of the prominent vendors operating in this market include Oxford Instruments Healthcare, Digirad Corporation, Alliance Medical, Insight Imaging, and Shared Medical Services.
PET/CT
PET/CT mobile medical imaging services market is poised to grow rapidly during the forecast period. PET/CT scan is an advanced nuclear imaging technique that combines PET and CT into one machine. A PET/CT scan reveals information about both the structure and function of cells and tissues in the body during a single imaging session. PET/CT scans can be helpful in diagnosing cancer, and deciding the best treatment option for cancer, check relapse of cancer, and progress of cancer treatment.
The pricing pressure is continuously increasing in the mobile PET/CT market as the market is fragmented and competitive. Digirad Corporation, Alliance HealthCare Services, Alliance Medical, Insight Imaging, and Shared Medical Services are some of the vendors operating in this market.
