Based on technology, the 3-D and 4-D ultrasound imaging segment accounted for over 42.8% share of the global ultrasound imaging market in terms of revenue and only 10.9% in terms of installed units in 2014. Moreover, the segment is expected to gain market share and emerge as the fastest growing segment during the forecast period. The produced image is 2-D; hence, visibility of abnormalities is not clear and precise, which reduces demand in imaging various complex abnormalities such as cardiovascular diseases and fetus growth. Moreover, the market for 2-D imaging is expected to expand at the slowest CAGR due to the advent of 3-D and 4-D imaging.
