Computed Tomography Devices Market Dynamics:

The Computed Tomography (CT) Devices market is witnessing a growth in product demand owing to various reasons. The key factor includes the advantage offered by Computed Tomography for its ability to image bone, blood vessels, and soft tissue at the same time, which helps in the detection of various disorders in the patient. CT is widely used to diagnose chronic diseases like cardiovascular diseases such as coronary artery disease, blood clots among others. CT imaging is also used to detect abnormal brain function in adult patients with cognitive impairment who are being evaluated for Alzheimer’s disease and other causes of cognitive decline.

In addition to chronic diseases, a CT scan can reveal whether or not a patient has a tumor, as well as where it is located and how large it is. CT scans can also reveal the blood arteries that provide the tumor with nutrients. These scans might be used by doctors to check if cancer has spread to other regions of the body, such as the lungs or liver. Moreover, CT scans are frequently used by doctors to guide a needle through a tiny bit of tissue. This is called a CT-guided biopsy. CT scans can also be used to guide needles into tumors for cancer therapies like radiofrequency ablation (RFA), which utilizes heat to eliminate malignancies, therefore the rising prevalence of cancers is another important factor responsible for the growth of the Global Computed Tomography Devices market. As per International Agency for Research on Cancer, WHO 2021, around 1.2 million young adults (aged 20-39) were diagnosed with cancer globally in 2020, and 360,000 died from the disease.

Hence, early detection is essential for a cure because survival is dependent on the treatment pathway for the disease. With efficient CT scans, the diagnosis of diseases becomes better. Therefore, the increasing prevalence of cancer is projected to lead to the growing demand for Computed Tomography Devices, thereby contributing to the growth of the overall Computed Tomography Devices market during the forecast period from 2021-2026.

Another key factor responsible for the growth of the Computed Tomography Devices market is the increasing geriatric population base across the globe.

The source further stated that by 2050, the elderly population in the 60 and above age group is expected to double in number representing about 2.1 billion people, and people in the age group of 80 and above are estimated to triple between 2020 and 2050 to reach 426 million. Age is considered as one of the key risk factors associated with the development of various disorders such as examining internal and bone injuries, diagnosing spinal problems and skeletal injuries, detecting osteoporosis, therefore, the rising elderly population is expected to lead to a rise in the patient population of chronic diseases across the world, which in turn would lead to an increase in demand for Computed Tomography Devices in the forecast period (2021-2026), which will drive the Computed Tomography Devices market growth.

Along with the factors mentioned above, technological advancements in the field of Computed Tomography Devices such as the development of new techniques like the introduction of 64 slices CT systems is also contributing to the market, key manufacturers are actively involved in developing higher slice CT systems to augment image quality, lesser scanning time. Moreover, enhancement in imaging techniques to build smaller and portable equipment is another factor that has led to the positive growth of Computed Tomography Devices. These benefits thereby by boosting the growth of the Global Computed Tomography Devices market.

However, high costs and doses of ionizing radiation delivered during scanning may be certain limiting factors of the Computed Tomography Devices market growth.

COVID-19 outbreak has extensively instigated increased use of CT scans, as it is one of the diagnostic tools for COVID along with laboratory tests. Background Chest CT was used in the diagnosis of coronavirus disease and it was an important complement to reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) tests.
