Based on product, the nuclear imaging equipment market is categorized into SPECT systems, hybrid PET systems, and planar scintigraphy. In 2016, the SPECT systems segment is expected to account for the largest share of the nuclear imaging equipment market. The SPECT systems are further segmented into hybrid SPECT and standalone SPECT systems. In 2016, the hybrid SPECT segment is expected to account for the largest share of the SPECT nuclear imaging equipment market. Advantages such as better imaging ability, high resolution, and the ability to show molecular processes in vivo render hybrid SPECT systems superior than standalone systems.
Based on application, the nuclear imaging equipment market is segmented into oncology, cardiology, neurology, and other applications (orthopedics, urology, thyroid-related disorders, and gastroenterology). In 2016, the oncology application segment is expected to account for the largest share of the nuclear imaging equipment applications market.
Based on end user, the nuclear imaging market is segmented into hospitals, imaging centers, academic & research centers, and other end users (pharmaceutical & biotechnology companies and CROs). In 2016, the hospitals segment is expected to account for the largest share of the market. The rise in the use of advanced imaging solutions and hybrid imaging systems in hospitals and enhanced care quality is driving the growth of this segment.
Based on region, the nuclear imaging equipment market is divided into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Rest of the World (RoW). The RoW region comprises Latin America, the Middle East and Africa.
