The increasing incidents of bone disorders, such as Rheumatoid Arthritis, Osteoporosis, and other associated fractures,are propelling growth of the bone densitometer market. Moreover, rising geriatric populations suffering from several age-related bone disorders arefurther contributing to market growth.On the other hand, the high costs associated with bone densitometers are hindering market growth.
Major Key Players of the Bone Densitometer Market are:
General Electric Company, Hologic, Inc., DMS Imaging, Medonica Co. LTD, Ecolight S.p.A., Oscare Medical, CyberLogic, inc.,NanjingKejin Industrial LLC., and Trivitron Healthcare, among others.
The rising geriatric population is amajor factor driving growth of the bone densitometer market. According to the World Health Organization,by 2050, the total world’s population falling in theage group, 60 years & older, is expected to be around 2 billion as compared to 900 million of 2015. Aging is associated with the loss of bone mass &density, which leads to several musculo skeletal issues such as osteoporosis, muscle weakness, and increased risk of osteoporotic fracture.Moreover, there are increased chances of osteoporotic fractures with progressing age. Osteoporotic fractures are associated with low Bone Mineral Density (BMD) and include clinical spine, for earm, hip, and shoulder fractures.The increasing incidentsof such fractures will promote growth of the bone densitometer market. According to the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), hip fracturesin the UK will rise from 91,500 cases in 2015 to 101,000 cases by 2020.
