Market Segmentation
Global Spine X-Ray and Computed Tomography (CT) Market (by Indication)
The global spine X-ray and computed tomography market, based on indication, has been segmented into spinal injuries, spinal tumors, and spinal fractures.
Spinal infections are caused by bacteria or fungi and affect the vertebral body, intervertebral disc, or paraspinal tissue. The increasing prevalence of spinal injuries is increasing the growth of the market as the diagnosis of spinal infections is a prolonged process with the usage of various imaging modalities.
Global Spine X-Ray and Computed Tomography (CT) Market (by Patient Type)
The global spine X-ray and computed tomography market, based on patient type, has been segmented into adults, and pediatrics and neonates. The injuries and fractures are caused by several factors such as falls, accidents, and sports injuries. The geriatric population is more susceptible to the injuries caused due to falls. Moreover, various guidelines and policies have been issued by regulatory bodies and agencies for dose safety in pediatric imaging.
Global Spine X-Ray and Computed Tomography (CT) Market (by End User)
The global spine X-ray and computed tomography market, based on end user, has been segmented into hospitals and clinics, diagnostic imaging centers, and ambulatory surgery centers surgical centers.
