Heart scan is a specialized X-ray test that provides a picture of coronary arteries and allows the doctor to look for any calcium deposit. The scan is done to take preventive steps by monitoring and detecting any unwanted clogging of the heart vessels due to the calcium accumulation, which might later lead to heart failure. The heart scan X-rays further diagnoses blood clots, injuries in the heart chambers, tumors, and even diseases, which are birth-related. This diagnosis, also known as coronary calcium scan, is one of the most common tests for a patient suffering from heart-related issue.
COVID-19 Impact Analysis
At the early phase of COVID-19 pandemic, there was no availability of specific diagnostic tests to detect the disease in patients. Alternative diagnostic tests were used initially but were not much effective. This unavailability of specific COVID-19 diagnostic tests presented lucrative opportunities for diagnostic manufacturers to introduce their COVID-19 diagnostic kits. Many leading players as well as some start-ups from various countries utilized this opportunity and introduced COVID-19 diagnostics kits into local as well as global heart scan market. These players achieved edge over other diagnostics players capitalizing the opportunity from demand for COVID-19 diagnostic tests, which, in turn, helps them in maintaining their revenues in such a crisis.
Owing to such factors, COVID 19 is expected to have a significant impact on the heart scan market.
