Lewes, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/05/2015 -- A thorough understanding of ultrasound usage patterns and procedure numbers is essential to any comprehensive description of the markets for ultrasound equipment in the United States. The U.S. healthcare system is currently witnessing a trend whereby ultrasound imaging is being applied in new settings using new technologies. The growing popularity of point of care ultrasound is affecting the customer base to which ultrasound equipment is marketed and sold. For example, the number of ultrasound procedures performed by anesthesiologists grew by 118% between 2010 and 2013. These shifts have dramatic consequences for pricing, product development and expected growth.

The two largest segments of the overall ultrasound equipment market in 2014 were the cardiology and radiology segments. These respective segments each accounted for over 25% of the overall market. Cardiology and radiology represent highly saturated segments of the ultrasound equipment market. However, due to advances in 3D and 4D imaging, as well as elastography and combined MRI/ultrasound imaging techniques, growth rates in these segments are still expected to reach approximately 4% by the end of the forecast period.
