Mammography Systems Market 2017 - Global Industry Analysis Forecast 2025
The Latest research study titled, “Mammography Systems Market by Product Type,
Technology, and End User - Global Industry Analysis and Forecast to 2025”
published by Crystal Market Research, states that the mammography systems
market is projected to be around $3 billion by 2025.
Mammography is a type of breast
imaging technique that uses low dose x-ray systems to detect breast cancer.
A
mammography exam is known as a mammogram which enables early diagnosis of
breast cancer in women. The market has witnessed technological advancements in
the mammography systems. These advancements include breast tomosynthesis,
digital mammography, and computer aided detection (CAD).When the x-ray film is
replaced with electronics to convert x-rays into mammographic pictures, it is
termed as digital mammography. This is also known as full-field digital
mammography (FFDM). This system is same as digital cameras with high efficiency
enabling to take better pictures with low radiation dose. These images are then
transferred to a computer for radiologist’s review and storage for future
reference. CAD systems help to digitize breast images for abnormal areas of
mass, calcification, or density indicating the presence of cancer. Breast
tomosynthesis is also known as digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) and 3D
mammography. It is an advanced type of imaging technique for breast cancer
which captures multiple images of the breast from different angles and then
these images are synthesized into a 3D image set.
These breast imaging techniques
are widely adopted as screening tool for the early detection of breast cancer
in women having no symptoms. These are also used in the diagnosis and detection
of breast related disorders in women having symptoms including pain, nipple
discharge, lump, and skin dimpling. Growing prevalence of breast cancer and
rapidly aging population is set to drive the demand for mammography systems
market. According to National Cancer Institute, in 2011, in U.S., around
283,000people were diagnosed with breast cancer and this number is expected to
reach 441,000 by 2030.

In 2016, the digital mammography
systems segment accounted for the major share of the global market as the
system offers advanced features related to image brightness, size, and
contrast. In 2016, 2D mammography held the major share of the global
mammography systems market. This segment will be primarily driven with the
rising need for improved communications coupled with advanced diagnostic
options.
During the forecast period,
Asia-Pacific is expected to exhibit high market potential due to rising
incidences of breast cancer, rising patient awareness with respect to breast
cancer screening, and increasing disposable income. Additionally, increasing
aging population and target population are set to drive this market. Further,
Japan accounted for the largest share of Asia-Pacific mammography systems
market in 2016.
Product launch is the key
strategy followed by the players operating in the mammography systems market to
sustain their leading position in the industry. For instance, in March 2016, GE
Healthcare launched Senographe Pristina Mammography System. This device offersa
self-compression tool for breast screening while minimizing discomfort. This
product launched helped the company to enhance its mammography portfolio.
Top Players in Market:
Key players operating in the
global mammography systems market are Toshiba Medical Systems Corporation
(recently acquired by Canon Inc.), General Electric Company, Siemens AG,
Fujifilm Holdings Corporation, Analogic Corporation, Hologic, Inc. Konica
Minolta, Inc., Planmed Oy, Delphinus Medical Technologies, Inc., and
Koninklijke Philips N.V.
