Dublin, Nov. 15, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/3kpftx/advances_in)
has announced the addition of the "Global
Advances in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) System Market Report,
2018" report to their offering.
The global MR Imaging market is estimated to be $4.13 billion, as
of March 2013; it is poised to grow at a CAGR of 4.56% to reach
approximately around $5.24 billion by 2018.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a noninvasive technology
that exploits the use of magnetic fields and radio waves to
generate anatomical images of the body. Technological advancements
have led to innovations in MRI systems such as open MRI, high field
strength MR systems, and dedicated MRI machines for wide range of
applications in fields of oncology, neurology, and cardiology.
Currently, research is being carried out to combine MR machines
with other imaging modalities for achieving better image clarity.
Though these dual modality MR imaging systems are still in the
realm of research, they offer a great scope for medical diagnosis
in the near future.
A major advantage of MR Imaging is that it does not use any
ionizing radiation, unlike conventional imaging. Magnetic resonance
imaging is non-invasive and offers exquisite clinical images, both
functionally and anatomically, with better contrast of soft tissues
and anatomical structures. Many diseases such as brain tumors and
breast tumors are more readily apparent in MR images than CT or
other conventional imaging modalities.
This market research report evaluates the global market of magnetic
resonance imaging by architecture, field strength, technology,
application, and geography. The market by architecture is further
categorized as closed and open MRI systems; the field strength
segment comprises low to mid-field strength, high field strength
and very-high field strength MR systems, while the technology
segment is classified as MR Angiogram, MR Venogram, functional MRI,
MR Spectroscopy and Fusion MR. In addition, the application segment
covers breast MRI, cardiac MRI,
interventional MRI, whole body MRI and MRI for brain, and
neurological disorders.
