Portable Ultrasound Made Possible by POCT

‘The incorporation of Point-Of-Care technology into ultrasound has opened new avenues of application, such as anesthesiology, critical care and musculoskeletal applications’, says RNCOS.

 

Noida, UP -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/15/2015 -- Incorporation of POCT in ultrasound has improved the accuracy of needle placement procedures, and has replaced expensive radiation based imaging. POC ultrasound systems are significantly less expensive to purchase as compared to other modalities, including computed tomography or magnetic resonance. These systems cost well over US$ 1 Million to purchase, while the average selling prices of POC ultrasound systems are a fraction of that value. All these reasons have contributed to the increased popularity of POCT.

According to "Global Point-of-Care Diagnostics Market Outlook 2020", the global POCT industry is at a very crucial stage with POCT expanding itself into diverse disease areas, such as cancer and HIV diagnostics. Currently, the United States accounts for almost 45% of the total POCT market, followed by regions, such as Europe and Japan.
