North America Ultrasound Imaging Devices Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Rising prevalence of chronic diseases

One of the key market drivers is the rising prevalence of chronic diseases. According to an American Cancer Society report published in January 2022, approximately 19,880 women are expected to be diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 2022. It also stated that ovarian cancer is the fifth leading cause of death in women, accounting for more deaths than any other cancer of the female reproductive system. Furthermore, it was reported that a woman's lifetime risk of developing ovarian cancer is about 1 in 78, and her lifetime risk of dying from ovarian cancer is about 1 in 108. According to the same source, cancer primarily affects older women. Approximately half of the women are diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Therefore, such instances are anticipated to propel the market's growth during the forecast period.

• Rising usage of ultrasound devices

The prevalence of chronic diseases is expected to rise, resulting in an increase in patients requiring improved diagnostic and therapeutic options. Emerging markets would be the most affected, as population growth in developing countries is expected to be rapid, resulting in increased healthcare spending. Advances in disease detection and diagnosis will also help to keep the cost of treating chronic illnesses under control. According to the World Health Organization, global chronic illness prevalence is expected to rise by 57% by 2020, with obesity rates and disease incidences such as diabetes on the rise, driving the need for ultrasound devices to identify patients. Using ultrasound technologies to diagnose patients earlier contributes to lower overall healthcare costs. The use of ultrasound devices is expected to increase as the number of patients with chronic conditions rise, fuelling the market's expansion.

• Demand for ultrasound imaging devices

With rising demand for ultrasound imaging devices for minimally invasive diagnostic and therapeutic applications, as well as the introduction of more technologically advanced ultrasound equipment, demand for ultrasound imaging devices has increased over the previous year. Furthermore, government initiatives to raise awareness about the importance of early detection have increased demand for ultrasonic imaging instruments.

Opportunities

• New product launches

Product launches and partnership agreements between major players are expected to drive the market. For instance, Butterfly Network, announced in May 2022 that it had signed a contract with the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) to supply its point-of-care ultrasound devices and software to the organization, which includes its medical school, research facilities, and 14 hospitals. As a result of the above-mentioned factors, the growth of the market in the United States is expected to rise.

Restraints/Challenges

• High cost associated with R&D activities

High research and development costs, insufficient infrastructure facilities, uneven distribution of medical services, and a lack of awareness in developing countries are all likely to hamper the market growth. Furthermore, during the forecast period of 2023-2030. A lack of favourable reimbursement scenarios and technology penetration in developing economies, a decline in healthcare expenses in advanced countries, rising patent expiry, government pricing pressure, high cost of ultrasound devices, and a lack of suitable infrastructure in low and middle-income countries are expected to pose challenges to the market.

COVID-19 Impact on Ultrasound Imaging Devices Market

The market reaction to COVID-19 has been minimal. Revenue has suffered as the rate of medical device production has slowed. Demand for ultrasound equipment decreased as the use of imaging systems decreased due to a decrease in the need for emergency treatment. The post-pandemic period, on the other hand, is expected to get the market back on track. COVID-19 is a fluid disease that can harm a variety of tissues and organs as it progresses. Due to the disease's impact on all phases and organs, a practical and adaptable imaging system that can dynamically identify specifics or anomalies is required. Ultrasonography meets all of these criteria and has several advantages over other imaging modalities, including portability and affordability. Ultrasonography played a crucial role in the COVID-19 outbreak in terms of triage, monitoring, spotting organ damage, and enabling patients to choose their own personalised treatment plans. The main pathogenic effects of COVID-19-induced changes in the liver, heart, and lungs' ultrasonography are the subject of this review.
