Market Trends of France Digital X-Ray Devices Industry
This section covers the major market trends shaping the France Digital X-Ray Devices Market according to our research experts:
Cancer is Believed to Witness Strong Growth Over the Forecast Period
Factors such as the rise in prevalence of different cancer disorders (like breast, prostate, lung, and so on) and greater applications of digital x-ray in diagnosing cancer disorders are the major factors attributing to the growth of this segment in France. Many research studies are also being conducted that can boost innovation and market growth.
According to the International Agency for Research on Cancer published Globocan 2020 report, the estimated number of breast cancer cases in 2020 was 58,083 in France. Additionally, according to the same report, the estimated number of prostate cancer cases in 2020 was 66,070. The deaths from prostrate cancer cases were calculated to be 9,060. The high burden of different types of cancer disorders in France is expected to boost the demand for digital x-rays for diagnosis purposes. This is expected to boost the market growth during the forecast period.
Many research studies are taking place in France in the field of digital x-ray imaging for cancer diagnosis. For instance, in September 2021, an article titled, 'Validation of lung nodule detection a year before diagnosis in NLST (National Lung Screening Trial) dataset based on a deep learning system' was published that states that the artificial intelligence (AI) program developed by NLST can spot signs of lung cancer on CT scan a year before they can be diagnosed with existing methods. Such studies that involve x-ray-based CT scans for cancer disease diagnosis are believed to boost the market growth during the forecast period.
Hence, the above developments are further expected to improve the market growth in this segment.
