General Radiography & Fluoroscopy – The Bounceback
17th June 2020 – Written by Imogen Fitt – Featured on HealthTech HotSpot – In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic markets across healthcare have changed dramatically. In particular, the general radiography and fluoroscopy market has experienced a significant shift, with chest x-ray examinations identified as a key tool used to diagnose and track the progression of late stage COVID-19.
The need for access to X-ray imaging within intensive care departments has skyrocketed, creating unprecedented demand for mobile imaging systems, which are easy to clean and transport between wards. For example, OEM manufacturer Micro-X published an increase in revenue of 375% compared to Q12019, with many other leading vendors citing substantial increases in orders.
