Coronary Heart Disease Diagnostic Imaging Devices Market Growth & Trends
The global coronary heart disease diagnostic imaging devices market is expected to reach USD 2.96 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 6.9% from 2022 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Increase in coronary diseases and deaths associated with it calls for better and early diagnosis of the condition. Precise scan interpretation and technologically advanced equipment are the factors influencing the market growth. Various imaging modalities are useful in identifying unique aspects of coronary screening. For instance, intravascular ultrasound, X-ray angiography, and computed tomography angiography (CTCA) provide a direct evaluation and quantification of alterations in the coronary arteries. However, non-invasive techniques like single-photon computed tomography (SPECT) and positron emission tomography (PET) provide indirect information on CHD by estimating the myocardial perfusion and metabolism abnormalities that are consequent of coronary artery disease.
Technological advancement in this field had led to the development of sharp camera units consisting of gamma systems, that use semiconductor detectors of cadmium zinc telluride (CZT). This led to faster acquisition of images, reduced capture time, high image quality, and lower radiation dose (1mSv for a single injection), as compared to conventional myocardial perfusion imaging by SPECT. Further, improvements around Computed Tomography, to develop non-invasive techniques have also shown great future growth in this segment. However, economic barriers, subject literacy, and lack of medical staff hold back the implementation of such advanced techniques in real practice.
The coronary heart disease diagnostic imaging devices market saw a sharp decline in 2020, due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. Fear of virus spread, the shift in focus on diagnosing and treating COVID-19 affected patients, reduced admission rates at hospitals for other diseases, and reduced medical staff, led to the reduction in the diagnosis of CVD. Economic setback observed by end-users also influenced the adoption of advanced techniques to effectively diagnoses coronary alterations. Further, the shutting down of manufacturing units, due to national lockdowns, halt in logistics, and reduction in salesforce also impacted the market negatively. However, diabetic and hypertensive patients witnessed a severe risk of CVD ultimately leading to death. Thus, the pandemic significantly impacted the market in 2020, which is likely to stabilize and grow exponentially by 2022.
