Medical Imaging Markets, Volume V: Molecular Imaging
Molecular imaging maps the locations of specific molecules and biomaterials within living tissue. As such, it has the potential to diagnose a disease, to monitor the course of that disease, and possibly facilitate treatment. Molecular imaging has developed into a promising new strategy for the diagnosis, evaluation and treatment of disease. This report offers complete market coverage of world markets for molecular imaging products for the following technologies:
- PET
- SPECT-Gamma Camera Systems
- MRI
- CT
- Ultrasound
- Fusion Imaging
- Optical Imaging
Interest in and use of the technology has exploded in recent years, thanks to advances in cell biology, biochemical agents, and computer analysis, and serious market watchers in medical imaging industries, as well as those serving or investing in medical imaging companies, will want to keep abreast of this new market. As part of its comprehensive coverage, this report includes:
- Complete Overview and Explanation of modalities and key applications
