Western Europe Teleradiology Market Likely to reach US$ 3,632.6 million in 2023

Posted by Arslan on January 21st, 2019

An insightful study, titled “Tele radiology Market” has been freshly broadcasted to the vast research repository of Market Research Reports Search Engine (MRRSE). This research study provides detailed comprehensions and forecasts future growth of the global market with an in-depth study of the factors impacting revenue growth throughout the mentioned forecast period. Further, a deep analysis on the major players from diverse regions is also present in the report.

Western Europe was valued at US$ 305.8 Mn in 2014 and is projected to reach US$ 1443.7 Mn in 2023 at a CAGR of 18.5% from 2015 to 2023.

The teleradiology market in Western Europe has been segmented based on modality. X-ray, ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and nuclear imaging are major types of teleradiology services provided in Western Europe. The X-ray teleradiology segment held the largest share of the market in 2014 and is likely to maintain its leadership position during forecast period from 2014 to 2023.

Increasing number of procedures, high awareness as it is a vintage technique, and low cost as compared to other modalities are the key drivers of the X-ray teleradiology segment. However, computed tomography teleradiology is considered the most lucrative segment of the teleradiology market in Western Europe. Ability of computed tomography to provide 3-D images of body parts such as brain, lungs, abdomen and heart; accuracy in diagnosis, and consistent development in the technology are likely to make it the most lucrative segment of the teleradiology market in Western Europe during the forecast period from 2015 to 2023.

However, complex and in-depth images of computed tomography are difficult to interpret, and hence need an expert radiologist. Therefore, demand for teleradiology is anticipated to increase rapidly during the forecast period. Ultrasound teleradiology accounted for the second largest share of the teleradiology market in 2014, as it is a first-line modality in the diagnosis of several abdominal disorders and during pregnancy. Additionally, low cost and absence of ionizing radiation makes it a more preferred modality to ultrasound. However, complexity of 3-D and 4-D images need experienced radiologists. This further increases the scope of teleradiology. Major countries in Western Europe such as the U.K., Germany, and France are facing the problem of lack of expert radiologists.

This increases demand for teleradiology for emergency cases or for second opinion. Additionally, people prefer to opt for second opinion from expert radiologists. However, lack of advanced image transfer technology in rural areas, complex cross-border regulations, high initial investment, and lingual differences that lead to confusion could restrict the growth of the teleradiology market in Western Europe during the forecast period 2015 to 2023. The nuclear imaging segment has witnessed sluggish growth as compared to other modalities due to requirement of sophisticated technology and adverse effects of radiation and radioactive substances. However, widespread use of positron emission tomography (PET) and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) scanners for cancer detection and increasing use of multimodality imaging could propel the nuclear imaging market in Western Europe during the forecast period. The magnetic resonance imaging segment has witnessed moderate growth owing to high precision in diagnosis, rising awareness in economically backward areas, and increasing brain related disorder and injuries. Major factors restraining the magnetic resonance imaging segment are large investment and long waiting list due to unavailability of sophisticated magnetic resonance imaging instruments.

The teleradiology market in Western Europe is fragmented. Agfa-Gevaert N.V., Cybernet Medical Corporation, ONRAD, Inc., Sectra AB, Telemedicine Clinic, and Global Diagnostics Ltd. are the major companies operating in the teleradiology market in Western Europe. Additionally, several other domestic companies and hospitals provide teleradiology services.
