Digital X-ray systems offer value for money to veterinarians in the veterinary radiography system market, since they play an important role in reducing administrative efforts and are time-efficient. These systems are being combined with veterinary management systems to help veterinarians gain access to a plethora of patient records and retrieve images from the archive. Hence, companies in the veterinary radiography system market are increasing their production capacities to manufacture advanced digital X ray systems.
High-speed CR Systems to be Extremely Helpful in Evaluation of Tiny Anomalies
In order to meet the requirements of veterinary doctors, companies in the veterinary radiography system market are increasing their production capacities to develop stationary full systems and portable X-ray units. For instance, OR Technology- a specialist in X-ray solutions, has developed portable X-ray systems for digital radiology. Likewise, manufacturers in the market for veterinary radiography systems are increasing R&D to develop digital X-ray units sans the need of cassettes for imaging.
Companies in the veterinary radiography system market are increasing the availability of compact and high-speed desktop units for standard X-ray examinations. This has led to the introduction of cost-efficient computed radiography (CR) systems. As such, computed radiography technology segment dominates the veterinary radiography system market. On the other hand, manufacturers are introducing digital dental radiography systems that are affordable and improve overall productivity of veterinary practices. They are focusing on design improvements by integrating powerful and user-friendly technology.
Screen-film Radiography Versus Digital Radiography: Which is better?
Needle-based storage-phosphor detector radiography is gaining importance in the veterinary radiography system market. This technique is found to be superior to conventional storage-phosphor and mammography screen-film systems. Needle-based detector systems perform better than screen-film systems in diagnostic imaging of small animals. On the other hand, screen-film radiography is a better alternative to digital radiography, since the latter has limited spatial resolution.
The veterinary radiography system market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 6.2% during the forecast period. Technological advancements have led to innovations in digital radiography. Though screen-film radiography has better spatial resolution, companies in the veterinary radiography system market are increasing R&D to enhance intrinsic sharpness and noise level of digital radiography systems. This is evident, since digital radiography is projected for exponential growth during the forecast period. As digital radiography systems are limited in spatial resolution, screen-film systems are limited compared to diagnostic imaging.
PACS Support Advanced Diagnostic Imaging of Small Animals
Several drivers such as the introduction of picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) are contributing toward the growth of the veterinary radiography system market. Companies in the market landscape are increasing efforts to develop user-friendly PACS solutions for management of the production and the use of X-ray images. Veterinarians are investing in novel digital technologies for analyzing and viewing X-rays of small animals. This is evident since diagnostic imaging of small animals is estimated to be high compared to large animals.
Apart from veterinary hospitals, manufacturers are catering to the needs of veterinarians in small practices. As such, veterinary clinics end user segment is anticipated for aggressive growth in the market for veterinary radiography system. Hence, companies in the market for veterinary radiography systems are increasing the availability of cost-effective full X-ray systems that cater to limited spending of small-scale practitioners. There is a growing demand for space-saving X-ray systems for standard wall socket operation with a floating tabletop.
Analysts’ Viewpoint
Companies in the veterinary radiography system market are working closely with physicians and universities to gain global recognition. There is a growing demand for low maintenance and German-made hardware and software systems. Apart from animal hospitals, manufacturers are increasing the availability of compact and mobile systems that cater to the needs of end-use stakeholders in stables and small veterinary practices.
Moreover, digital radiography has led to the need for high-quality diagnostic imaging. However, high cost of digital X-ray systems poses as a barrier for small practitioners. Hence, manufacturers should increase R&D to develop cost and time-efficient digital X-ray systems for small practitioners.
Veterinary Radiography System Market: Overview
The global veterinary radiography system market for the historical period 2017–2018 and forecast period 2019–2027, rapid increase in the number of animal diseases, rise in companion animal ownership, high prevalence of zoonotic diseases, and increase in access to health care are anticipated to drive the global veterinary radiography system market
According to the report, the global veterinary radiography system market was valued at US$ 478.1 Mn in 2018 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of 6.2% from 2019 to 2027
Increase in Ownership of Companion Animals Globally and Rise in Affordability and Expenditure on Animal Health: Key Drivers
Nearly 2.7 million animals are adopted every year from shelter homes in the U.S. Increase in adoption of animals and various exotic pets is expected to drive the global veterinary radiography system market in the next few years. The British Columbia Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (BCSPCA) rescued 27,187 injured and homeless animals, found new homes for nearly 15,811 animals, and transported 4,994 animals to shelter homes in 2015. Pet owners have begun scrutinizing health services offered to their pets. Surge in awareness about pet health has led to routine health check-ups, which is expected to boost the growth of the global veterinary radiography system market.
In developed countries, pets are treated like family members and various products are used to improve their lives. For instance, in Australia alone, the expenditure on pet care products and services stood at around US$ 4.62 Bn in 2005. According to the American Pet Products Association, the U.S. pet industry expenditure stood at US$ 60.3 Bn in 2015 and US$ 62.7 Bn in 2016.
