Handheld Imaging Devices Market Is Gaining Major Traction With GE Healthcare Introducing Discovery MI Gen 2 PET/CT System For Digital Detection With Innovative Reconstruction Technology

 

Handheld Imaging Devices Market

Handheld optical imaging devices can be used to detect and monitor various diseases, such as diabetes, arthritis, and heart diseases. These devices have been specifically designed to be lightweight and mobile, which allows them to easily be moved around to provide continuous surveillance during work or leisure activities. Furthermore, they are commonly used by nurses, doctors, and laboratory technicians to observe certain diseases, such as gallstones, tumors, and other diseases. Some handheld devices are designed to offer 360-degree coverage from the camera lens, which makes them useful for detecting abnormalities and diseases on a wide scale. The importance of these devices in the health care industry is due to their portability, ease of use, and ability to provide continuous surveillance.

High prevalence of oral cancer is expected to drive growth of the global handheld imaging devices market. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), there around 657,000 new cases of the oral cavity and pharynx each year, while around 330,000 deaths due to the same. According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCB), in India, around 77,000 new cases of oral cancer and 52,000 deaths are reported each year. Oral cancer is among the top three cancers diagnosed in India. Handheld imaging devices such as OralScan are used for screening and detection of oral cancer. It is a hand-held multispectral imaging camera. Thus, these factors are expected to drive growth of the global handheld imaging devices market. Furthermore, continuous research and development activities for whole-brain MRI scan is expected to propel the global handheld imaging devices market growth in the near future.

However, challenges related to the development of a uniform magnetic field for image coding are expected to restrain growth of the global handheld imaging devices market during the forecast period. Among regions, North America is expected to witness significant growth in the global handheld imaging devices market. This is owing to the presence of key manufacturers such as GE Healthcare, InfraScan, Inc., and MolecuLight, Inc. across the region. Furthermore, Europe is expected to register robust growth, owing to the presence of robust healthcare infrastructure supporting new techniques.

Key companies operating in the global handheld imaging devices market are GE Healthcare, MolecuLight, Inc., Koninklijke Philips N.V., KaVo Dental, Siemens Healthineers, InfraScan, Inc., FUJIFILM Corporation, Clarius Mobile Healtfh, FUJIFILM Corporation, and Butterfly Network, Inc.

For instance, in November 2020, GE Healthcare launched Discovery MI Gen 2 PET/CT system for digital detection with innovative reconstruction technology.

  The Infrared Thermometer market is witnessing the fastest growth in the Asia Pacific region and this can be accredited to the growing aging population in the region which is driving demand for healthcare services. Japan has the highest growing aging population in the country. According to the Statistics Bureau, Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, in 2019, the aged population (65 years old and over) was 35.89 million, constituting 28.4 percent of the total population (i.e., 1 in every 4 persons) and marking a record high in Japan. The rise in prevalence of infectious disease and increase in the demand for the product for newborns as children cannot hold the contact thermometer is playing a key role in the overall development of the infrared thermometer market . According to the World Health Organization, HIV, tuberculosis, malaria, neglected tropical diseases, and viral hepatitis affects billions of people around the world and causes more than 4 million deaths each year

The Global Meningococcal Vaccines Market Continues To Grow Owing To the Demand from Healthcare Care Sectors across the World to Prevent the Spread of the Diseases Especially In Children

Image
  Meningococcal vaccines prevent the contraction of meningococcal diseases, including meningitis caused by the bacteria called meningococcus aureus. An outbreak of meningococcal disease is usually followed by an onset of meningitis. Meningococcal meningitis can cause permanent damage to the brain or spinal cord in as little as 10 days, depending on the degree of infection and the natural immunity of the person. Since meningitis is usually associated with a fever and signs and symptoms of a serious illness, many parents prefer not to use the traditional treatments for their children such as meningitis or oral antibiotics. Instead, they often resort to various forms of therapeutic interventions that may even improve their chances of developing a positive outcome. Meningococcal vaccines are now available for meningococcal meningitis, as well as for men who have had other prior bouts of meningitis. Some vaccines used for these purposes are PPSV, Rallo, and Q fever type 1. These vaccines

       Sexual health is an important part of a person’s physical and mental health. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), sexual health requires a respectful and positive approach to sexual relationships and sexuality, as well as the possibility of having pleasurable and safe sexual experiences, free of coercion, violence, and discrimination. Sexual health leads to a healthy sex life without any sexually transmitted diseases, and to take preventive measures to avoid sexually transmitted infections. The elderly population (geriatric population) often suffer from one or more sexual disorders, such as premature (early) ejaculation, erectile dysfunctions, dyspareunia, and hypoactive sexual desire disorder, among others. Thus, with the increasing geriatric population worldwide, the prevalence/incidence of sexual disorders is also increasing, driving the growth of the sexual health market . According to WHO, the world's population aged 60 years and older is expected to tota
