Market Highlights
Small
Animal Imaging Market is a technique for imaging
biological and molecular processes in the small animals using imaging
modalities and reagents. This technique can provide valuable information in the
preclinical stage or phase I stage of clinical trials. The increase in research
funding, rising demand for non-invasive small animal imaging techniques, and
technological developments drive the growth of global small animal imaging
market.
Moreover, the rising gene expression
studies, increasing drug development activities and increasing government
initiatives for research are likely to fuel the market growth during the
forecast period. For instance, according to the Federal Funding for Biomedical
and Related Life Sciences Research, 84% of the National Health Institutes (NIH)
funding is distributed through 60,000 researchers to conduct various research
and developments in life science sector. Additionally, according to (FASEB),
NIH required a minimum of USD 35.0 billion for life science researches for the
year 2017.
Despite the drivers, stringent
government regulations regarding animal usage in experiments, the high cost of
installation and operation of imaging devices may hamper the growth of global
small animal imaging market.
Regional Analysis
The Americas is likely to dominate
the global small animal imaging market during the forecast period. The market
growth is attributed to increasing investments by clinical research
organizations in pre-clinical studies, increasing government funding’s in
research activities and increasing number of pharmaceutical and research-based
organizations. Europe is the second largest market in the global small animal
imaging market. The European market is expected to grow during the forecast
period owing to increasing R&D investments by pharmaceutical companies and
growing number of research organizations for diagnosis of diseases. Asia
Pacific is expected to be the fastest growing market owing to the increasing
government support for biotechnology and pharmaceutical R&D and growing
number of translational research activities. The Middle East and Africa is
expected to show the least growth in the market due to some major factors such
as lack of awareness and low government support. In this region, the Middle
East holds the largest market owing to the development of healthcare
infrastructure.
Segmentation
The global small animal imaging
market is segmented on the basis of the modality and reagents.
On the basis of the modality, the
market is classified into optical imaging systems, nuclear imaging systems,
micro-MRI systems, micro-ultrasound systems, micro-CT systems, photoacoustic
imaging systems, and Magnetic Particle Imaging (MPI) systems. The optical
imaging systems are further segmented into bioluminescence/ fluorescence
imaging systems, standalone fluorescence imaging systems, and optical +
X-Ray/optical + CT systems. The nuclear imaging systems are segmented into
micro-Pet systems, micro-spect systems, and trimodality (spect/pet/CT) systems.
The micro-pet system is further segmented into standalone pet systems, pet/CT
system, and pet/MRI systems. The micro-spect system is further segmented into
standalone spect systems, spect/CT system, and spect/MRI systems.
On the basis of reagent, the market
is segmented as optical imaging reagents, nuclear imaging reagents, MRI
contrast agents, ultrasound contrast agents, and CT contrast agents. The
optical imaging reagents are further segmented as bioluminescent imaging
reagents and fluorescent imaging reagents. The bioluminescent imaging reagents
are further segmented into luciferins, pro-luciferins, coelenterazine, and
other bioluminescent imaging reagents. The fluorescent imaging reagents are
further segmented as green fluorescent proteins, red fluorescent proteins,
infrared dyes, other fluorescent imaging reagents. The nuclear imaging reagents
are segmented into pet tracers and spect probes. The pet tracers are further
classified into fluorine-18-based small animal pet tracers, carbon-11-based
small animal pet tracers, copper-64-based small animal pet tracers, and other
spect probes. The spect probes are further segmented into technetium-99m-based
small animal spect probes, iodine-131-based small animal spect probes,
gallium-67-based small animal spect probes, thallium-201-based small animal
spect probes, and other spect probes. The MRI contrast agents are segmented
into gadolinium-based small animal contrast agents, iron-based small animal
contrast agents, and manganese-based small animal contrast agents. The CT
contrast agents are further segmented into iodine-based small animal CT
contrast agents, barium-based small animal CT contrast agents, gold
nanoparticles and gastrografin-based small animal CT contrast media.
