The Brazil medical devices market is categorized into patient monitoring, ultrasound, defibrillator, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and others (endoscopy, ophthalmology, orthopedic, radiotherapy). These segments are further sub segmented based on product, application, technology, and end user.

The Brazil ultrasound market is segmented based on technology, application, and product. The compact/handheld ultrasound devices segment is expected to grow at the highest rate during the forecast period. The increasing demand for compact and portable ultrasound devices is driving the market for these devices. In the application segment, the radiology/general imaging applications segment is expected to account for the largest share of the Brazil ultrasound market in 2015. The large share is attributed to the increasing use of ultrasound technology in diagnosis and treatment of orthopedic diseases, musculoskeletal disorders, abdominal disorders, and soft-tissue injuries coupled with the rising incidence of various types of cancers.

The MRI market is segmented on the basis of architecture, field strength, and application. The closed MRI systems segment is expected to account for the largest share of the MRI systems market, by architecture, in 2015. Based on the field strength, high-field MRI systems are expected to account for the largest share of the Brazil MRI systems market in 2015. The brain and neurological MRI application segment accounted for the largest share of the Brazil MRI systems market, by application.
