The report highlights the key factors driving the handheld ultrasound scanners market growth and prominent players with their developments in the market.
The handheld ultrasound scanners market has been segmented on the basis of product type, application, and end user.
Based on product type, the handheld ultrasound scanners market is segmented into 2D handheld ultrasound scanners, 3D/4D handheld ultrasound scanners, and doppler ultrasound. The 2D handheld ultrasound scanners segment held the largest market share in 2023. 2D handheld ultrasound scanners are the most common portable ultrasound devices, offering a cost-effective and versatile solution for point-of-care imaging. These devices use a single transducer to produce two-dimensional images, providing clear visual representations of internal structures. While they may not offer the same level of detail as high-end 3D or 4D systems, 2D handheld scanners are well-suited for various clinical applications, including musculoskeletal imaging, abdominal assessments, cardiac evaluations, and even essential fetal monitoring.
By application, the market is segmented into gynecology, neurology, cardiology, urology, aesthetics, musculoskeletal, veterinary, and other applications. The gynecology segment held the largest share of the market in 2023. Handheld ultrasound scanners have revolutionized the field of gynecology by providing a portable and convenient tool for imaging and diagnosing various conditions. These devices have been widely applied in gynecology for quick and accurate assessments of pelvic organs, including the uterus, ovaries, and fallopian tubes. With their compact size and ease of use, handheld ultrasound scanners are particularly useful in outpatient settings, emergency departments, and remote healthcare facilities where traditional ultrasound machines may not be readily available.
Based on end user, the market is segmented into hospitals and ambulatory care centers, diagnostic centers, military usage, remote areas, primary care/family medicine, medical/nurse education, veterinary clinics, and others. The hospitals and ambulatory care centers segment dominated the market in 2023. A hospital is a healthcare institution that treats people through specialized scientific equipment and trained staff. Vascular surgeons, radiologists, cardiovascular specialists, and general practitioners who need to image blood flow, flow blockages, and vascular structure and for guidance during vascular surgery use Blow flow imaging, ICE, Doppler, IMT, and other popular vascular features to diagnose and direct treatment.
