PET-CT Scanner Market Demand, Sales and Consumption Status and Growth Opportunities
The global positron
emission tomography (PET)-computed tomography (CT) scanner market is
expected to grow notably during the forecast period, because of the rising
prevalence of chronic diseases and growing preference of people for minimally
invasive procedures. On the basis of product, the market is categorized into
stationary and portable/mobile scanners. Between the two, stationary PET-CT
scanners are estimated to hold a larger share in the PET-CT scanner market in
2017, owing to the increasing adoption of these scanners in hospitals and other
healthcare facilities for an effective workflow.
During the forecast period, North America is expected to
hold the largest share in the PET-CT
scanner market, followed by Europe, owing to the presence of a strong
distribution channel for PET-CT scanners in the region. The demand for PET-CT
scanners is expected to witness fastest growth in Asia-Pacific, owing to the
increasing patient pool, infrastructural developments in developing economies,
rising prevalence of infectious and chronic diseases, and increase in
government investments for R&D in healthcare.
Untapped emerging markets, growing preference for multimodal
diagnostic imaging systems, and ongoing market shift toward image-guided
medical interventions are the factors offering growth opportunities to the
players in the PET-CT scanner market.

During the forecast period, China and India are expected to
offer ample opportunities to the market players for growth. According to the
World Bank, Brazil spent 8.3% of its $2.5 trillion gross domestic product (GDP)
on healthcare in 2014. Similarly, China spent 5.5% of its total GDP on
healthcare and Mexico spent 6.3% of its total GDP on healthcare in 2014. China,
Brazil, and India have a large population base but lack in primary healthcare
facilities. This factor is leading to the growing demand for medically advanced
devices in these countries, creating ample opportunities for the market players
to expand their presence in these emerging economies.
Some of the other key players operating in the PET-CT
scanner industry are Canon Medical Systems ANZ Pty Limited (Toshiba Medical
Systems Corporation), General Electric Company, Hitachi Ltd., Koninklijke
Philips N.V., Shimadzu Corporation, PerkinElmer Inc., Positron Corporation, and
Yangzhou Kindsway Biotech Co. Ltd.
