(PharmaNewsWire.Com, December 21, 2017 ) The Asia Pacific Ultrasound Devices Market has been estimated at USD 1.38 Billion in 2016 and is projected to reach USD 2.02 Billion by 2021, at a CAGR of 7.92% during the forecast period from 2016 to 2021. Ultrasonic devices are used to detect objects and measure distances. Ultrasound imaging or sonography is often used in medicine. In the nondestructive testing of products and structures, ultrasound is used to detect invisible flaws.
Government and private funding for R&D in ultrasound imaging, aging population, increasing number of healthcare providers, curtailment in the size of ultrasound devices, and higher incidences of chronic diseases are some of the factors that are propelling the growth of the market. However, lack of skilled labor to handle the equipment and stringent FDA regulations are turning out to be restraints for this market in Asia Pacific region.
