Peru, Brazil to contribute toward growth of global nuclear imaging market

According to a research report published by Transparency Market Research, emerging South American geographies such as Peru and Brazil are predicted to contribute toward the growth of the global nuclear imaging market over 2016–2023 owing to rising elderly population, increasing income, enhancing medical expenditure, increasing healthcare infrastructure and rising chronic diseases. Among the other developing nations, India and China are leading the market. However, the US is currently the global market leader. Some of the major players of the global nuclear imaging market are GE Healthcare, Hitachi Medical, Philips, Toshiba Medical, Carestream Health, Siemens Medical, Positron Corporation, Naviscan and Cardinal Healthcare. Acquisitions and mergers are expected to provide leading players ample opportunities to continue with their global market dominance over the forecast period.
