Dermatology Diagnostic Devices Market by Product [Imaging Techniques (OCT, Ultrasound, MRI, CT), Dermatoscopes (Traditional Dermatoscopes, Digital Dermatoscopes), Microscopes] and, by End-User (Hospitals, Clinics) - Global Forecast to 2020

The global healthcare industry is witnessing a shift in paradigm, and is now skewed towards non-invasive diagnostics, which results in easy and painless diagnosis. Dermatology diagnostic devices are devices that aids in easy detection of various skin disorders, such as melanoma. There are varied diagnostic devices that are currently utilized by dermatologists, such as digital photography tool and dermatoscope. The dermatoscope aids in better diagnosis beyond the naked eye. The device projects light on the skin, thus causing magnification of the skin structure, thereby resulting in better diagnosis. The digital photography, involves the total cutaneous imaging of the skin lesion, with serial images that are recorded over a period of time, which are then further analyzed.

The diagnostic device market is segmented on the basis of type into dermatoscope, imaging technique, and microscope. The dermatology diagnostic device market is dominated by the imaging techniques segment, which comprises over 78.9% of the market share, and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.5% from 2014 to 2019. This growth is mainly attributed to the ability of these devices to detect advanced stages of melanoma. The dermatoscope segment is further divided into traditional and digital dermatoscope, out of which the traditional dermatoscope has the highest market share of 58.1%. On the other hand, the imaging techniques are further classified into ultrasound, CT, MRI, and OCT, out of which the ultrasound market has the highest market share of 41.1%.

Globally, North America dominates the dermatology diagnostic devices market registering 37.1% in 2014, followed by Europe with 30.8%. The European region is considered to be the fastest growing region in the dermatology diagnostic devices market, owing to the rise in geriatric population and increasing awareness of skin disorders.

Detailed market share analysis of the major players in the global dermatology diagnostic devices market is covered in this report. Major companies of this market include AMD Global Telemedicine Inc., Carl Zeiss Meditec, FEI Company, Fotofinder Systems GMBH, Leica Microsystems, Michelson Diagnostics Ltd., Nikon Corporation, MELA Sciences, Inc., Verisante Technology, Inc., GE Healthcare, Bruker Corp., Philips Healthcare, Heine Optotechnik, Siemens Healthcare, Toshiba Medical Systems, and Welch Allyn.

Global Dermatology Diagnostic Devices market report categorizes this market on the basis of product, end-user, and geography. The products include imaging technique devices, dermatoscopes, and microscopes. The end-user segment of this market is classified into hospitals and clinics. The geographies covered in this report are North America, Europe, Asia, and Rest of the World. The study is based on primary and secondary research conducted to analyze varied market dynamics, such as drivers, restraints, challenges, and opportunities.

In recent years, there has been an incessant rise in the number of people suffering from various skin disorders, such as melanoma, psoriasis, vascular lesions, and acne. Among these disorders, melanoma is a type of skin cancer that predominantly develops on the skin. However, the challenge lies in recognizing the early symptoms, so that appropriate treatment can be initiated before the tumor reaches a thickness of 0.76 mm, which can be fatal for the patient. Advancements made in the field of medical science have led to the emergence of highly equipped dermatology diagnostic devices, such as dermatoscopes, OCT scanners, and hand-held scanners that allow an early detection of melanoma. This has further resulted in improving survival rates and reducing the number of biopsies, in addition to decreasing associated morbidity and cost of healthcare. Quantitative thermographic imaging (QTI), confocal microscopy, and optical coherence tomography (OCT) have been revolutionizing the diagnostic procedures market.

In 2014, the global dermatology diagnostic devices market was valued at $382.5 million, and is expected to reach $616.3 million by 2020, at a CAGR of 8.3% from 2015 to 2020. The demand for the this market in emerging countries is expected to rise owing to factors, such as increasing awareness among surgeons and the price sensitive market. Major players in the this market are facing tough competition from low cost manufacturers in China and Italy, as these manufacturers offer devices at a 60% to 70% lesser price in compared to other players.
