A report by Kalorama Information (New York, NY, USA) analyzing the global Computed Tomography (CT) market has been published. The report surveyed the CT market outlook until 2018, and the drivers behind the changes.

The report investigated CT market sizing, market forecast to 2018, analysis of trends, how the market is shared among competing companies, and company profiles. The report looked at the following geographic regions: USA, Europe, Japan, BRIC countries (Brazil, Russia, India, and China), and the rest of the world.

The report expects the global CT market to grow 5.5% to USD 5.1 billion in 2018, fueled by product enhancements, and the requirement to reduce radiation dose levels including US federal standards such as the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) XR-29 standard, which defines low-dose standards.

The full report entitled Computed Tomography (CT) Systems: World Market Analysis is available online (please see Related Links below). 

Bruce Carlson, publisher of Kalorama Information, said, “Low-dose concerns are nothing new and many systems already do what XR-28 calls for, but XR-29 legislation is one of several factors boosting new model sales. Others are speed and capacity.”
