Contrast Injector Market: Overview

Contrast dye or agent is a chemical substance that is used for increasing contrast of fluids in the human body during medical imaging. Contrast agents are used for improving radio density during a medical imaging scan of a tissue or an organ. There are various types of contrast agents used for improving visibility of gastrointestinal tract and vessels. In X-rays, the most commonly used contrast agents are iodine and barium and during magnetic resonance imaging scans, gadolinium is utilized as an MRI contrast agent.

Contrast injector are used for injecting contrast agent in human body during a radiography scan. These contrast injectors help in monitoring contrast dosage, recording quantity of contract agent used, detecting potential health hazards during scan, and increasing dosage speed during tests. Contrast injectors play a crucial role in ensuring patient safety and imaging quality.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The global contrast injector market growth has witnessed a decrease during COVID-19 crisis as there has been decrease in the number of new imaging labs opened in around the world owing to trade restrictions and lockdown enforcement imposed by governments. Many hospitals and diagnostic centers have limited scanning as there is risk for COVID virus transmission. Trade restrictions among countries and continents have also affected production and have resulted in supply chain disruption in medical industry. This factor is likely to hamper the contrast injector market growth. However, there has been significant increase in the number of CT scans done during COVID-19 pandemic as CT scans can be useful in diagnosing COVID-19 infection among critically ill patients for suspicion of infection. This rise in the number of CT tests done is anticipated to trigger market growth.

Contrast Injector Market: Growth Factors

Growing healthcare industry around the world has accelerated the number of diagnosis done for detecting various disorders in humans. This rise in the number of tests has also been bolstered by increasing number of individuals suffering from cancer, brain disorders, spinal diseases, and physical injuries. Such growth in the number of  tests done is likely to boost the demand for contrast agents in medical diagnostic industry, which may also fuel the demand for contrast injectors.

There has been significant increase in investment from municipal and federal authorities in developing and expanding healthcare infrastructure in urban as well as rural areas of the world. This increase in investment in healthcare industry is expected to increase the number of new diagnostic centers in developing as well as developed parts of the world. This anticipated rise in the number of diagnostic centers should boost the demand for new contrast injectors. Further, there has also been growth in the number of imaging centers for treating various chronic disorders which should also contribute to the growth of the contrast injectors market globally.

Product Segment Analysis Preview

In terms of products, the consumables segment dominated the global contrast injectors market in 2020. Consumables such as injector heads, syringes, and tubes hold an important position in imaging test as these ensure efficient contrast dosage and scan quality. Also, there has been significant growth in the demand for high quality consumables to ensure effective imaging scan results. This trend may also accelerate the market growth.

Injector systems segment is estimated to grow at a highest growth rate owing to growing number of diagnostic centers worldwide. Contrast injectors systems are used in imaging scans like CT, MRI, and angiography. In recent years there has been a significant rise in the number of individuals suffering from cardiovascular disorders, which has propelled the angiography scan demand worldwide. Such a ride should contribute the demand for contrast injector consumables.  

Application Segment Analysis Preview

Based on applications, the radiology segment dominated the global market, accounting for a market share of approximately 50% in 2020. Various types of imaging technologies such as computed tomography (CT), positron emission tomography (PET), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are used by radiologists for diagnosing different types of chronic diseases such as blood clots, thrombosis, cancer, and tumor. These technologies use contrast injectors for effective scans and avoiding health hazards to patients. Such use of contrast injectors should proliferate the contrast injectors market growth for radiology applications.
