Industry Overview
Clinical trial imaging is a component of massive research and development of biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries and drug development process. It helps in making trial more effective and accurate. The global clinical trial imaging market is growing at significant rate, due to mounting research and development spending by growing biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries and boosting number of contract research organization (CROs). Different products and services contributed to the clinical trial imaging market size. The market has witnessed high demand for services segment over the last few years due to elevated price of the imaging equipment.
Market Segmentation
Insight by Product and Services
On the basis of product and services, the clinical trial imaging market is sub divided into services and software. Of both, service segment market account the larger share and is expected to grow at the fastest rate in the market, due to elevated price of the imaging equipment and mounting outsourcing of imaging clinical trial by medical device, pharmaceutical, and biotechnology manufacturers.
The services segment is further sub divided into system and technical support services, operational imaging services, trial design consulting services and read analysis services. The operating imaging service accounted the largest share in the market, as it comprises of essential services accessible by imaging CROs for several imaging modalities.
Insight by Modality
On the basis of modality the market is sub divided into x-ray, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET), ultrasound, echocardiography and others. High benefits of computed tomography in diagnoses for injuries, abnormalities and cancer, in the body are some of the factors responsible for the growth of the computed tomography segment. Of all the types of modality, the computed tomography accounted largest share in the clinical trial imaging market. Moreover, PET is expected to grow at fastest rate due to benefits of PET in delivering data about the performance and metabolism of the body organs.
Insight by End User
The different end users of the market are academic and government research institutes, pharmaceutical companies, contract research organizations, biotechnology companies, medical device manufacturers, and others. Mounting research and development finances of pharmaceutical companies is the factors growing the demand of pharmaceutical companies. Among the all end users, the pharmaceutical companies are accounted to command the clinical trial imaging industry. Moreover, medical devices manufacturers are expected to grow at fastest rate in the market due to boosting medical device market and mounting research and development expenditure by medical device manufacturers.
