Abstract:

High Deployment Costs Hinder New Technology Growth

General radiography utilizes the conventional film-screen method of passing
X-ray photons through the body to create images of internal structures.
However, digital radiography (DR) substitutes an electronic detector panel
and digital display system for the film-screen cassette. This revolutionary
technology reduces patients’ exposure to X-rays and offers the cost-savings
associated with digital formatting. Despite these advantages, high initial
start-up costs are slowing widespread adoption by healthcare facilities.
This Frost & Sullivan study provides a comprehensive evaluation of the U.S.
and European digital radiography markets. By examining industry challenges
and providing strategic recommendations, this research offers your firm the
inside information needed to develop an effective business plan.

Long-Term Savings Key to Attracting Cost-Conscious Consumers

General radiography is the largest cost contributor and one of the most
inefficient applications for radiology departments. The cost consciousness of
healthcare providers, coupled with digital radiography's ability to provide
greater savings, is expected to be a prime factor influencing the long-term
success of the industry.

In today's managed care environment, healthcare organizations continue to
look for ways to contain costs, improve operating efficiencies, and increase
patient satisfaction, states the study’s author. Digital radiography systems

have attributes that correspond nicely with the newfound needs of hospitals
brought on by managed healthcare.

Manufacturers Struggle to Meet Demand for Detector Plates

Although a few dedicated facilities that produce DR detector plates—the
most important system component—are finally operational, most are not
working at full production capacity. Manufacturers are struggling to make
detector plate production faster, more efficient, and less expensive.

Determining and implementing the most efficient manufacturing process is
still many months or even years away,” says the analyst. “Delayed delivery of

subsystems and components will remain a structural barrier to manufacturers’
ability to meet demand, says the author.

This Frost & Sullivan study provides an in-depth analysis of the U.S. and
European digital radiography markets, keeping your company abreast of the
latest developments in this rapidly evolving industry.
