MRG has compiled a detailed and insightful analysis of the top competitors in the European diagnostic imaging systems market. Examine competitor product offerings, marketing strategies, and potential future products. Benchmark company performance against an extensive list of industry leaders.

The European market for diagnostic imaging systems consists of five imaging modalities—magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), ultrasound, X-ray, computed tomography (CT), and nuclear medicine—and spans four major geographical markets, namely France, Germany, Italy, and the UK.

Market Highlights
- In the X-ray market, computed radiography (CR) emerged as the most popular modality in 2005 despite previous predictions that the technology would be obsolete by then.

- Due to the excellent image quality that can be achieved with this technology, and its affordability as a digital X-ray solution, CR unit sales will continue to outpace the analog and digital radiography (DR) markets over the next five years.

- Despite its maturity as a modality, ultrasound continues to emerge as an imaging solution in new niche markets such as gastroenterology and surgery. Additionally, the growing interest in the use of contrast agents will further improve the diagnostic capabilities of ultrasound and help to expand the use of these systems throughout hospitals and private settings.

- Although hospitals have limited budgets to invest in more costly technologies such as positron emission tomography (PET) and computed tomography (CT), there is definite interest in the clinical value that these evolving modalities can offer. In particular, hybrid technologies such as PET/CT and single photon emission computed tomography
(SPECT)/CT will be adopted over the forecast period because the fused images can provide much more diagnostic information in a single episode of scanning.
