Magnetic Resonance Imaging Systems Market Global Briefing 2017

Magnetic resonance imaging systems market comprises of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems used for the identification and diagnosis of various diseases. Magnetic resonance imaging systems use a fixed or static magnetic field and radio frequency signals to visualize anatomy, tissue characteristics, vascular flow, chemical composition of tissues, and perfusion and diffusion of tissues. The MRI device can produce three-dimensional images of sections of the body, but it is sometimes more sensitive than CT scanners for distinguishing soft tissues. MRIs are administered to the patients suffering from inflammation or infection in an organ, degenerative diseases, strokes, musculoskeletal disorders, tumors, and other irregularities that exist in tissue or organs in their body.
Based on the structure, the MRI systems are classified into two types: closed MRI systems and open MRI systems. Based on the field strength MRI systems are classified into four types: low-to-mid-field MRI systems; high-field MRI systems; very-high-field MRI systems; and ultra-high-field MRI systems.
Some clinical applications of MRI are tissue characterization, tumor staging, predicting treatment procedures, monitoring treatment response after chemotherapy or radiation; detecting recurrent cancer, and detecting lymph node involvement by cancer.

The global magnetic resonance imaging systems market was estimated to be around $5.1 billion as of 2016. The global magnetic resonance imaging systems made up around 16% of the overall diagnostic equipment market in 2016. The magnetic resonance imaging systems market was the fourth largest market in the global diagnostic equipment market in 2016.

Innovation of Hybrid Modality Medical Imaging Equipment
Development of hybrid modality MRI equipment for the diagnosis and imaging is one of the major trend in the market. Competitors are developing medical imaging with sophisticated technologies and by integrating different types of medical imaging equipment that provides high-quality images, which can serve the need of high-end hospitals. For instance, Mediso developed nanoScan, a fully integrated equipment with PET/MRI and SPECT/MRI has spatial resolution, accurate imaging and has high soft tissue contrast and sensitivity features; hence, the equipment develops fine quality 3D images.
