Report Description
Over the last few years, the healthcare industry has been witnessing technological advances
in medical devices which offer robust services to cater to patients who are suffering from
brain related diseases. Currently, brain imaging is one of the fastest growing segment of the
overall imaging market. Brain imaging is a screening method that helps the physician to
analyze the activity and functioning problems of the nervous system for treatment of various
type of neurodegenerative disorders. There are different types of scanners are available in
the market to offer services in brain imaging segment. For instance, functional magnetic
resonance imaging (fMRI), computed tomography (CT), positron emission tomography (PET),
electroencephalography (EEG), magneto encephalography (MEG) and near-infrared
spectroscopy (NIRS) are the devices used in brain imaging. Among all, functional magnetic
resonance imaging (fMRI) is a prominent one, and that provides robust information about
brain activity by detecting the changes in blood oxygenation. Functional magnetic resonance
imaging (fMRI) also provides anatomical and functional information about changes in blood
flow to particular areas of the brain. Brain imaging is widely used in the diagnosis of
neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinsonism as well as chronic
diseases such as brain cancer.
Brain Imaging and Neuroimaging Market: Drivers and Restraints
Increasing incidence of brain cancer around the world along with increasing incidence rates
of neurodegenerative disorders is expected to fuel the growth of overall brain imaging
market. Introduction of innovative products from key players in the imaging segment also
expected to drive the overall brain imaging market. Moreover, increasing road accidents
around the world is one of the key factors which is expected to drive the market during the
