Medical imaging information system is a networked software system for managing medical imagery and associated data. This system helps to track radiology imaging orders and billing information. Software’s associated with medical imaging information system likes PACS and VNAs offers digital imaging that helps to zoom in and zoom out images. It also allows manipulation of images in order to better view and analysis of images which is very useful in diagnosing patients.
Rising utilization of medical imaging information systems in tracking billing information and radiology imaging orders is expected to propel growth of the global medical imaging information system market over the forecast period. In addition, increasing use of medical imaging information systems in various end-use applications such as hospitals, diagnostic imaging centers, and ambulatory surgical centers are other factors driving growth of target market. However, lack of skilled professionals is limiting growth of the target market.
The global medical imaging information system market has been segmented on the basis of modality, end user, software type, and region.
The modality segment includes computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, positron emission tomography, ultrasound, X-ray, and mammography. On the basis of end user target market has been segmented as hospitals, diagnostic imaging centers, and ambulatory surgical centers (ASCS). On the basis of software type the global medical imaging information system market has been segmented as PACS system management, radiology information systems, and integrated software solutions.
On the basis of region the global medical imaging information system market has been segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, Middle East, and Africa. North America is expected to account for the major share in terms of revenue as compared to the other regions. This can be attributed to well-establish healthcare sectors, number of diagnostic imaging procedures coupled with adequate number of skilled professionals in the countries of the region.
Key players operating in the global medical imaging information system market includes Siemens Corp., Hitachi Ltd., Varian Inc., Toshiba Corp., Mindray Medical International Ltd., Neusoft Group Ltd., Hologic Inc., GE Healthcare Inc., Esaote SpA., and Fonar Corp.
