Optical imaging is the technique for taking images of the internal body parts non-invasively. Visible light and photons are used to take the detailed image of internal organs and tissues. It also takes images of smaller structures includes cells and molecules. These images are used by doctors for diagnosis and treatment of diseases and also by scientists for different research work.
Optical imaging market is in emerging state mainly due to the use of non-ionizing radiations which reduces the radiation expose of patients. Also optical imaging has potential to differentiate between soft tissues using various properties of photons like absorption or scattering at different wavelengths. Furthermore, optical imaging is combined with different imaging techniques such as MRI or X-rays which provides enhanced images that is very useful for the study of complex diseases. Also, optical imaging can measure different properties of tissues and organs by using various colors of light with different wavelengths. However, factors such as high cost associated with the imaging process, stringent government policies and lack of skilled technicians are impeding the market growth.
The world optical imaging market has been segmented based on technique, product, therapeutic area, application, end-user and geography. Based on technique, the market is segmented into optical coherence tomography (OCT), photoacoustic imaging, diffused optical tomography, hyperspectral imaging and super resolution microscopy. Based on product, the market is segmented into imaging systems, software, lenses, illumination systems, cameras and others. Imaging systems are further segmented into optical imaging systems and spectral imaging systems. By therapeutic area, market is segmented into neurology, oncology, ophthalmology, cardiology, dentistry, dermatology and others. Based on application, the market is segmented into pre-clinical and clinical research, pathological imaging and intra-operative imaging. Based on end-user, the market is segmented into diagnostic imaging centers, hospitals and research laboratories. The market is analyzed on the basis of four regions, namely, North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.
