HYDERABAD, TELANGANA, INDIA, February 7, 2019 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Diagnostic Devices Market by Type(X-ray Systems,Ultrasound Systems,Computed Tomography (CT) Scanners,Magnetic Resonance Imaging Systems,IVD Diagnostic,POC diagnostic and Nuclear Imaging Devices),By Indication (Diabetes, Cancer/Oncology,Cardiology,Nephrology,Infectious Diseases,Blood Screening), by End User (Hospitals,Diagnostic Laboratories,Home-Care Settings and Others)

Diagnostic devices are used in healthcare industry to diagnose the nature or cause of a disease, assessing the nature of the indication, designing a course of treatment, monitoring the effects of interventions and can also be used to determine the recurrence of the existing disease. In developed regions, most of the healthcare diagnostic tests are performed at central laboratories equipped with advanced molecular analyzers and other advanced techniques. However, resources in central laboratories are limited. Thus, there is high demand for fast, easy, and affordable diagnostic devices for healthcare applications, especially in developing regions.

The recent developments in point-of-care (POC) diagnostics provide in-vitro diagnostics and immediately actionable healthcare information at accident sites. POC diagnosis also allows patients to self-test and self-managed care at their homes. The increase in investment by the government for healthcare services is driving the global diagnostic devices market. For instance, according to U.K. Department of Health & Social Care invested USD 7.5 billion on cancer related treatment and services in 2015.

The Global Diagnostic Devices market was valued at USD 12.21 billion in 2017 and is expected to witness a CAGR of 13.2% over the forecast period (2018–2025).
