ポータブル超音波診断装置は、患者のベッドサイドの狭いスペースで使用できるように設計された移動式の超音波診断装置であり、カート型、タブレット型、手持ち型などがあります。ポータブル超音波診断は、以前のコンソール型超音波装置と比較して、小型で軽量な装置を使用する医療用超音波検査の一形態です。
ポータブル超音波診断は、高周波の音波を利用して、内臓や血管などの軟部組織のリアルタイム画像や動画を作成します。これらの画像は、体内の痛み、腫れ、感染の診断、生検の誘導、心臓の検査、妊娠中の胎児の健康状態の評価などに役立ちます。
さらに、技術進歩の拡大、製品の発売、投資の増加などの重要な成長促進要因が将来の市場成長をもたらします。GEヘルスケア・テクノロジー、CHISON Medical Technologies Co.Ltd.、Koninklijke Philips N.V.、Mindray Medical International Limitedなどのその他の企業が市場で活発に活動しています。
トランスデューサと呼ばれる超音波診断プローブは、人間の聴覚の閾値を超える周波数の音波を発生させるために使用されます。大手企業による製品の立ち上げは市場成長の原動力となり、こうした効果的な研究開発は新たな診断や治療のための製品立ち上げに役立っています。
例えば、2023年7月、コニカミノルタヘルスケアアメリカズ社は、PoC用途の一般的な画像診断のための新しいワイヤレスハンドヘルド型超音波装置であるPocketPro H2を発売しました。新しいPocketPro H2リニアワイヤレスハンドヘルド超音波装置は、筋骨格系(MSK)、疼痛管理、血管アクセス、針誘導アプリケーション向けに最適化されています。
さらに、EagleView Ultrasoundは2022年1月、EagleViewデュアルヘッド超音波診断と呼ばれるワイヤレスポータブル超音波診断装置を発売しました。これはタブレットや携帯電話に接続するワイヤレス超音波診断プローブです。全身の画像化技術で高品質のPOCUS(ポイントオブケア超音波)を提供します。したがって、上記の要因により、市場は予測期間中に拡大すると予想されます。
診断用超音波は、体内を画像化する非侵襲的診断技術として使用されます。主要企業による大規模な投資が市場成長の原動力となっています。国家機関や企業によるこれらの効果的な資金は、研究発見を慢性疾患の新たな診断や治療法に変えるのに役立っています。
例えば、2023年7月、AI主導の断層3D超音波診断ソリューションを通じて安価で高品質な医療へのアクセスを可能にする医療機器企業であるPIUR IMAGINGは、PIUR tUS Infinityと呼ばれるAI主導の断層3D超音波診断システムを拡張するために490万ユーロのシリーズA資金調達ラウンドを確保しました。
さらに2021年7月、Exo ImagingはExo Worksと呼ばれるハンドヘルド超音波診断装置とPoCワークフロープラットフォームの商業化を目的としたシリーズC資金調達で2億米ドルを確保しました。この新たな資金調達により、カリフォルニア州レッドウッドシティを拠点とする同社の投資総額は3億2,000万米ドルを超えることになります。
ポータブル超音波診断の高価格は市場拡大の妨げになると予想され、中低所得層には手が出ない状態です。例えば、Standard Ultrasound社によると、基本的なポータブル超音波診断装置は10,000米ドルから50,000米ドルもします。中レベルの超音波装置は50,000米ドルから100,000米ドルで、ハイエンドの装置は200,000米ドル以上することもあります。
Portable ultrasound machines are mobile ultrasound systems that are designed to be used in small spaces at a patient's bedside, and these can be cart-based, tablet-based, or hand-carried. Portable ultrasound is a modality of medical ultrasonography that utilizes small and light devices compared to the console-style ultrasound machines that preceded them.
Portable ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to create real-time pictures or videos of internal organs or other soft tissues, such as blood vessels. These images are useful in diagnosing pain, swelling, and infection within the body, guiding biopsies, examining the heart, and assessing the health of a fetus during pregnancy.
Furthermore, significant growth drivers such as increasing technological advancements, product launches, and rising investments give rise to future market growth. Significant key players like GE Healthcare Technologies Inc., CHISON Medical Technologies Co. Ltd, Koninklijke Philips N.V., Mindray Medical International Limited, and others are actively operating in the market.
Ultrasound probes, called transducers are used to produce sound waves that have frequencies above the threshold of human hearing. The product launches by major companies help to drive market growth and these effective research and developments help in product launches for new diagnoses, and treatments.
For instance, in July 2023, Konica Minolta Healthcare Americas, Inc., launched the PocketPro H2, a new wireless handheld ultrasound device for general imaging in point-of-care applications. The new PocketPro H2 linear wireless handheld ultrasound system is optimized for musculoskeletal (MSK), pain management, vascular access, and needle guidance applications.
Additionally, in January 2022, EagleView Ultrasound launched its wireless portable ultrasound device called EagleView dual-head ultrasound. It is a wireless ultrasound probe that connects to a tablet or phone. It gives high-quality POCUS (point-of-care ultrasound) with whole-body imaging technology. Hence, due to the above factors, the market is expected to boost over the forecast period.
Diagnostic ultrasound is used as a non-invasive diagnostic technique to image inside the body. The major investments from key companies help drive market growth. These effective funds from national organizations and companies help transform research discoveries into new diagnoses and treatments for chronic diseases.
For instance, in July 2023, PIUR IMAGING, a medical device company that enables access to affordable high-quality healthcare through AI-driven tomographic 3D ultrasound solutions, secured €4.9 Million Series A funding round to expand its AI-driven tomographic 3D ultrasound system called PIUR tUS Infinity.
Additionally, in July 2021, Exo Imaging secured $200M in Series C financing aimed at commercializing its handheld ultrasound device and point-of-care workflow platform called Exo Works. The new funding also gives the Redwood City, California-based company over $320 million in total investments.
The high price of portable ultrasound is anticipated to hamper the market expansion and cannot be afforded by middle and lower-income groups. For instance, according to Standard Ultrasound, a basic, portable ultrasound machine can cost anywhere from $10,000 to $50,000. A mid-level ultrasound machine may cost between $50,000 and $100,000, while a high-end machine may cost upwards of $200,000.
The global portable ultrasound market is segmented based on device type, application, end users, and region.
A handheld ultrasound system enables the flexible performance of whole-body scanning and delivers crystal-clear images. Handheld ultrasound devices are expected to hold the largest market share over the period forecast owing to increasing product launches.
For instance, in August 2023, GE Healthcare launched its Vscan Air SL handheld wireless ultrasound imaging system designed for use in rapid cardiac and vascular assessments to accelerate diagnoses and treatment decisions. The device features the company's proprietary SignalMax and XDclear imaging performance technology which enables high levels of penetration, resolution, and sensitivity with a single crystal transducer technology.
Additionally, in October 2022, Osang Healthcare Co., Ltd., a company specializing in in-vitro diagnostics, developed a 1MHz ultrasound portable device called PUM that is used for physical therapy. PUM is effective in relieving pain and relaxing muscles in topical areas such as the neck, shoulder, and knee through 1MHz ultrasound and EMS (Electrical Muscle Stimulation), which vibrates a million times per second.
North America has maintained a significant proportion of the portable ultrasound market in recent years due to the increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases in the United States, there is a growing need for portable ultrasound machines to diagnose abnormalities in heart function. These machines have become increasingly popular in cardiology centers as they provide significant value to the practice. Cardiologists can use portable ultrasound machines to diagnose a variety of conditions, including heart defects, valve issues, and damage from heart attacks, among others.
For instance, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, heart disease is the leading cause of death for men, women, and people of most racial and ethnic groups in the United States. About 695,000 people in the United States died from heart disease in 2021 this is 1 in every 5 deaths.
Hence, the above factors help to accelerate the region's growth.
The major global players in the market include: GE Healthcare Technologies Inc., CHISON Medical Technologies Co. Ltd, Koninklijke Philips N.V, Mindray Medical International Limited, Hitachi Ltd., Samsung Healthcare, FUJIFILM Sonosite, Inc., Siemens Healthcare Private Ltd., BenQ Medical Technology, Fukuda Denshi UK Ltd. among others.
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the global portable ultrasound market. The onset of the pandemic in early 2020 led to widespread lockdowns and restrictions, impacting regular check-ups, appointments, device launches, and consultations worldwide. Many hospitals are focused on COVID-19 cases, and this reduces the diagnosis of many patients suffering from various chronic diseases.
Moreover, the focus of research and development efforts shifted during the pandemic, with a significant emphasis on developing vaccines and treatments for COVID-19. Therefore, owing to the above factors, the portable ultrasound market is expected to be moderately affected over the forecast period.
The global portable ultrasound market report would provide approximately 69 tables, 70 figures, and 195 Pages.
