Doppler Ultrasound Market Size - By Type (Trolley-based, Handheld), By Application (Radiology, Cardiology, Obstetrics and Gynecology), By End-use– Global Forecast to 2032

Doppler Ultrasound Market Size

Doppler Ultrasound Market size was valued at USD 2.6 billion in 2022 and is projected to reach USD 4 billion by 2032. Doppler ultrasound refers to the use of diagnostic ultrasound technology in tandem with the doppler effect to analyse and observe blood flow within the body.
 

Doppler ultrasound precisely measures variations in the frequency of sound waves reflected by moving blood cells. Doppler ultrasound may offer real-time information about blood flow speed, direction, and properties by monitoring these frequency changes. It measures blood flow in arteries and veins, examines the performance of heart valves, examines foetal well-being throughout pregnancy and identifies blood clots or other abnormalities in blood vessels.
 

Moreover, the rising prevalence of chronic disorders is fuelling the evolution of the market. For instance, as per the World Health Organization (WHO), approximately 41 million people die owing to chronic diseases, annually, equivalent to about 74% of all deaths globally. Furthermore, rising number of people suffering from cardiovascular diseases along with increasing technological advancements regarding medical imaging.
 

COVID-19 Impact

The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the doppler ultrasound market. The pandemic caused a drop in screening for non-urgent and elective surgeries, as well as a postponement of routine screenings, leading in a fall in demand for medical imaging services and medical devices including doppler ultrasound. Moreover, the pandemic disrupted global supply chains, that led to shortages of doppler ultrasound devices. Moreover, the pandemic prompted healthcare facilities to implement strict infection control measures to minimize the risk of transmission. This included enhanced disinfection protocols for ultrasound equipment and personal protective equipment (PPE) for healthcare providers.
 

Doppler Ultrasound Market Trends

Doppler ultrasound offers a non-invasive alternative to traditional diagnostic methods, reducing patient discomfort and the risk of complications. The increasing preference for non-invasive procedures among both patients and healthcare professionals is driving the demand for doppler ultrasound. In addition, the development of more compact and portable systems, increased sensitivity in detecting low blood flow velocities, and improved image processing capabilities have increased the adoption rate of cardiovascular ultrasound systems as they improve imaging quality, resolution, and accuracy in measuring blood flow parameters. Furthermore, the inclusion of tissue doppler imaging allows for the measurement of tissue mobility and velocity, notably in the heart.
 

Doppler Ultrasound Market Analysis

Based on type, the doppler ultrasound market is bifurcated into trolley-based and handheld. The trolley-based segment held the largest revenue size over USD 1.7 billion in 2022. The upsurge can be attributed to their exceptional mobility, such as the ease with which trolley-based doppler ultrasound machines can be transported to numerous areas across healthcare institution. Furthermore, trolley-based doppler ultrasound devices aid in the administration of treatment, decision-making, and diagnosis, all of which leads to improved clinical outcomes.
 

Doppler ultrasound market is bifurcated based on the application into radiology, cardiology, obstetrics and gynecology, and others. The radiology segment held the largest revenue size over USD 1.1 billion in 2022. This is attributed to the wide use of doppler ultrasound technology in vascular imaging to detect and analyze blood vessels, as well as to diagnose and monitor problems such as peripheral artery disease, varicose veins, and deep vein thrombosis. Furthermore, doppler ultrasound technology is frequently used to diagnose abdominal organs in order to identify illnesses including liver disease, gallstones, and renal cysts.
 

The doppler ultrasound market is segmented by end-use into hospitals, diagnostic imaging centers, home care, and academic & research institutes. Hospitals segment accounting for more than 44% market share in 2022 and is estimated to witness significant revenue of over USD 1.8 billion by 2032 attributed to the increased use of doppler ultrasound in various medical settings, as well as a rise in the number of visits by patients diagnosed with chronic diseases.
 

U.S. doppler ultrasound market accounted for USD 897 million in 2022 and will grow momentously to reach USD 1.3 billion by 2032. The use of doppler ultrasound technology is growing rapidly due to its non-invasive nature and ability to produce real-time images. This has led to an increased demand for doppler ultrasound across the U.S. Also, the presence of significant players, together with increased government support and regulations for technological developments in the healthcare industry.
