- Threat of Substitutes: Low, as ultrasound is essential for non-invasive CVD diagnosis with no direct alternatives.
- Bargaining Power of Buyers: Moderate, with facilities seeking reliable, cost-effective systems, though clinical needs limit options.
- Bargaining Power of Suppliers: Low, with multiple component providers.
- Competitive Rivalry: High, with competition on AI, portability, and resolution.
Market Opportunities and Challenges
Opportunities:
- CVDs (20.5 million deaths) and risk factors (1.3 billion hypertension cases) drive demand.
- Aging populations (2.1 billion over 60 by 2050) boost needs, while AI and portable systems enhance adoption.
- Fetal cases (1.3 million) increase usage.
Challenges:
- High costs of advanced systems limit access in low-income regions.
- Regulatory delays for AI tech slow growth.
- Limited sonographers in rural areas restrict expansion.
