Overview of the global vascular imaging market

Healthcare providers are compelled to use medical imaging for early diagnosis to reduce the incidence of recurring disorders. Technavio’s market research report identifies that the rising need for early diagnosis and preventive measures will be one of the primary growth drivers for the global vascular imaging market until 2021. The early detection of chronic diseases such as CVD, cancer, obstetrics, and gynecological disorders using better diagnostic procedures like ultrasound, MRI, CT, and nuclear medicine will improve the treatment therapy.

Also, the medical imaging industry is moving towards the imaging informatics, hybrid modalities, and follow-up treatment to perform early detection and diagnosis of various vascular diseases. Advanced imaging techniques such as SPECT/PET help healthcare providers to distinguish between stable plaque and unstable or vulnerable plaque in arteries. Vascular imaging also quantifies the efficacy of novel therapies. Technavio’s market research analysts predict that this market will grow at a CAGR of more than 6% by 2021.
