How are Technological Advancements Driving Advanced Visualization Market?

 


According to the World Health Organization (WHO), every year, 17.9 million human deaths are caused by cardiovascular diseases and 9.6 million by cancer. Moreover, as per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), six in every 10 U.S. citizens have at least one chronic disease, while four in every 10 have at least two. Medical imaging has proven to be an extremely useful tool in diagnosing these and a lot of other diseases and disorders, which is why the volume of X-ray, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), and positron emission tomography (PET) scans is rising around the globe. With these technologies, doctors get a good look at tissues, bones, muscles, organs, blood vessels, glands, and lymph nodes. 

While, in many places, films are the preferred media for capturing and displaying the images, the preference for having them directly converted to a digital form, to be viewed with greater convenience on computer screens, is rapidly increasing. With the growing popularity of digital medical images, the procurement rate of picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) is also surging. Due to this factor, the advanced visualization market is projected to grow at a healthy rate in the coming years, as PACSs are essentially a storage system for medical images.

To achieve advanced visualization, which basically means to more-efficiently store, share, transfer, and interpret these images, for monitoring the human body in real time, an array of services, and hardware and software are required by medical settings. Of these, hardware and software currently see higher demand, on account of the rapid integration of these components by doctors, due to the rising awareness about the advantages of this technique. In the coming years, though the demand for hardware and software would still be higher, the faster growth in requirement will be witnessed by services, especially system implementation and technical training services.

Two types of advanced visualization solutions are offered by vendors — standalone workstation-based and enterprise-wide thin-client based. Of these, enterprise-wide thin client-based solutions have been more popular among the healthcare fraternity up till now. This has been a result of their higher data storage space, streamlined analysis, centralized post-processing mechanism, and better data transfer ability. Apart from all these, the advent of multi-user interfaces is another reason which would propel the requirement for enterprise-wide thin-client-based solutions faster than for standalone workstation-based variants in the years to come.

One of the major reasons behind the rising adoption of advanced visualization, apart from the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, is the steady growth in the population of the elderly. According to the World Population Ageing 2019 report published by the United Nations, 703 million people fell in the age group of 65 and above that year, and by 2050, their number will rise to 1.5 billion. Along with being at a higher risk of chronic diseases, such people are also more prone to physical issues, such as broken bones, torn arteries and muscles, and atrophy. This is why the number of radiological scans done on this population is considerably higher than on people in other age groups.

How is Rising Hospital-Acquired Infection Incidence Driving Disposable Medical Sensors Market?

Image
  The global population will increase from 7.7 billion currently to 9.7 billion by 2050, says the United Nations Department for Economic and Social Affairs (UNDESA), in its latest World Population Prospects report. With this, the hold of various chronic and acute diseases on the world is rising, as is of all other issues that can take someone to a doctor. With the growing demand for medical services, the number of hospitals and other healthcare settings is increasing. This is resulting in the surging requirement of various devices, instruments, and systems used at such places, as well as the individual components which make up such stuff, including sensors.  Therefore, with the rising demand for healthcare, the disposable medical sensors market is advancing around the world. Accelerometers, biosensors, temperature sensors, pressure sensors, image sensors, and several other kinds of sensors are used in medical settings. Among these, the usage of image sensors is expected to in...

Why Will Commercial Sector Dominate Australia Ventilation Products Market?

Image
 The Australia ventilation products market revenue is expected to increase from $569.4 million in 2021 to $1,003.9 million in 2030. Moreover, it will propel at a 6.5% CAGR during the forecast period owing to the increasing commercial and residential projects, rising consciousness of the health and ecological effects of contaminated air, and cumulative preference for decentralized ventilation. Further, since the pandemic, people have become more conscious than ever of the harms of breathing contaminated air, especially since COVID-19 is an airborne disease. The skyrocketing demand for smart buildings will drive the Australian ventilation products market in the coming years. This can be attributed to the rising pollution levels due to the increasing carbon emissions, and surging cognizance of environmental sustainability. A smart building encompasses practices such as greenhouse gas emission reduction, water conservation, energy efficiency, and waste management. Therefore, with the i...

Why Are Air Compressor Sales Rising in APAC Manufacturing Sector?

Image
  Among the top manufacturing nations in the world are China, Japan, India, and South Korea. Their booming population and export volume are leading to a continuous increase in industrial production. New manufacturing clusters are being set up, and a huge volume and variety of production equipment is being procured in order to fulfill the rising demand for all things imaginable. One of the key pieces of equipment used at factories is an air compressor, often as part of larger machines that operate on pneumatics (air pressure). Therefore, as per P&S Intelligence, with the burgeoning industrial production, the value of the Asia-Pacific (APAC) air compressor market will increase to $15.2 billion by 2024 from $11.8 billion in 2018, at a 4.1% CAGR during 2019–2024 (forecast period). Some of the common industrial machines that work on pneumatics, therefore require air compressors, are rock drills, riveters, pavement breakers, paint sprayers, forging presses, blast cleaners, nail guns,...
