A recent report published by Infinium Global Research on handheld ultrasound market provides in-depth analysis of segments and sub-segments in the global as well as regional handheld ultrasound market. The study also highlights the impact of drivers, restraints, and macro indicators on the global and regional handheld ultrasound market over the short term as well as long term. The report is a comprehensive presentation of trends, forecast and dollar values of global handheld ultrasound market.
Handheld ultrasound equipment is a medical device that can be used with one hand weighing less than or equal to 10 pounds. Handheld ultrasound equipment is employed for screening and diagnostic imaging in healthcare centers. These devices allow medical practitioners to do inspections and evaluations at the patient's bedside or in far-off places. They also provide real-time imaging capabilities, which are very useful in point-of-care applications. Portable ultrasound machines are practical, portable, and simple to operate, which makes them appropriate for a variety of medical specializations. They are essential for boosting patient care, expanding access to diagnostic imaging, and facilitating rapid clinical decision-making. The market for handheld ultrasound is driven by the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases and the increasing demand for point-of-care imaging solutions in medical emergencies.
The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases propels the market growth of the handheld ultrasound market. Chronic ailments include heart disease, lung disease, liver disease, and musculoskeletal disorders that frequently need close monitoring, prompt diagnosis, and follow-up exams. According to World Health Organization, “ Regardless of improvements in overall health, the WHO warned that if the trend of NCDs continued, by 2050, chronic diseases like cancer, diabetes, and respiratory illnesses would be responsible for 86% of the 90 million annual deaths. This represents a startling 90% increase in absolute numbers since 2019”. Thus, with the rising burden of chronic diseases globally, there is a growing need for accessible and efficient diagnostic tools. Therefore, to perform diagnostic imaging and screenings at the point of care the demand for handheld ultrasound devices is increasing in hospitals and the healthcare sector. Additionally, to sustain in a competitive market, manufacturers are providing features like wireless networking, smartphone compatibility, advanced imaging modes (including Doppler, 3D/4-D imaging, and elastography), and Artificial Intelligence (AI) integration, to improve their functionality and clinical utility and boost the market in future. However, the market's potential is constrained by the high price of handheld ultrasound devices. Adoption may be discouraged by the expensive price, especially in environments with limited resources. Thus, the market demand for handheld ultrasound devices in underdeveloped regions can be less as compared to that of the developed region.
The global handheld ultrasound market is segmented into Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, the Middle East & Africa, and South America. Among the regions, North America has been a major market for handheld ultrasound devices, driven by the presence of well-established healthcare infrastructure, high healthcare expenditure, technological advancements, and an increasing chronic disorder population due to rising unhealthy lifestyles. The Asia Pacific region is also witnessing rapid market growth due to increasing healthcare investments, rising awareness about portable imaging solutions, and a growing patient population.
