Portable X-ray Systems - Global Industry Analysis 2015 - 2019 and Opportunity Assessment; 2020

Market Overview

X-ray is a commonly used technique to take images of the internal body parts in the health conditions. The portable x-ray systems are taking significant attension now a days. Portable x-ray system is used for radiological assessment of patients who cannot be transferred from one place to another.

The shift of demand for portable x-ray systems among the end user is owing to its flexibility, high-tech image quality, speed, and beneficial factor such as security and comfort of patients. Osteoporosis is one of the responsible factor for bone fractures and incidences. As per CDC data, in the U. S., 5.1% percent of men 65 years of age and over living with osteoporosis of the femur neck or lumbar spine.

According to surveys, 90% of the diagnostic centers in the U.S. and Western European countries have experienced a significant decline in the volume of radiography diagnosis due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as the patients are avoiding a visit to the hospital due to the high risk of COVID-19 infection. This decline in hospitalization is expected to show a negative impact on the growth of the portable X-ray sytem market.

The aging population is more susceptible to fractures or trauma and is expected to fule the portable devices demand in the portable x-ray systems market. Technological advanmcents and launch of wireless compact portable systems are projected to grow the portable x-ray systems market during the forecast period.

Increase in healthcare infrasturcutre and skilled radiographic workforce will considered as a dominant driving forces in the emerging the portable x-ray systems market. However, cost of the advanced portable x-ray systems and stringent regulatory norms across the leading portable x-ray systems markets are expected to hamper the market growth in the future.

The global portable x-ray systems market is segmented based on the product, technology, application, end-user, and the region.

Based on product	Digital Analog
Based on application	Radiography Fluoroscopy Computed Tomography
Based on end-user	Dental Trauma and Accidents Diagnosis Others
Based on technology	Hospitals Ambulatory Care Centers Dental Clinics Diagnostic Radiological Centers
Based on region	North America Latin America Europe South Asia East Asia Oceania Middle-East & Africa (MEA)

Digital X-ray is expected to grow at a significant rate due to technical advancments and end user flexibility and patient conveneicne. Moreover, the government's funding to analog x-ray systems is on decline due to several challenges raised while using analog x-ray systems like high radiation exposure, image, noise, inaccurate results, and many other problems.

Based on technology, the radiography system seems to be more effective due to its dynamic range, better contrast detectability, and better medical evaluation, reduced radiation exposure for patients as well as the medical professional. By application, diagnostic and trauma and accident segemnts are collectively expected to dominate the portable x-ray systems market. Hospitals holds the major share in the portable x-ray systems market due to large patient pool.

North America continues to dominate the global portable x-ray systems market owing to the presence of leading medical devices manufacturer, and rising awareness of preventive care and early diagnosis. European portable x-ray systems market is expected to gain significant traction with an increase in the aging population.

Asia-Pacific portable x-ray systems market can be the fastest-growing region owing to the high pool of patients in the region. The Middle East & Africa exhibits the least lucrative opportunity due to lower health care expenditure and poor access the healthcare.

The key players contributing to the portable x-ray systems market are Siemens Healthcare, Philips Healthcare, Boston Scientific Corp., Canon Medical System, Varian Healthcare, Fujifilm Corporation, Hitachi Medical Corporation, Genoray America, Teledyne Technologies, ICM (Teledyne DALSA), and others.
