Micro Computed Tomography Industry Overview
The global micro computed tomography market size is expected to reach USD 327.7 million by 2028, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 7.9% from 2021 to 2028. A growing number of applications and a significant demand for technologically advanced three-dimensional imaging technologies are driving the market for micro computed tomography (CT). In addition, the increasing use of micro-CT in research is expected to boost the market growth.
Micro Computed Tomography Market Segmentation
Grand View Research has segmented the global micro computed tomography market based on product, application, and region:
Based on the Product Insights, the market is segmented into In-vivo, Ex-vivo.
- The ex-vivo micro-CT segment dominated the market and accounted for the largest revenue share of 76.9% in 2020, and is also expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. Ex vivo micro-CT scanners provide improved spatial resolution, longer scan times (since dose to the sample isn’t of concern), higher signal-to-noise ratios, and hence superior images.
- Ex vivo scanners are used in biomaterial studies, implants in large animals, materials studies, compression studies, and other studies of excised organs including lungs, bone, tumors, implants, and grafts, the study of food and seeds, biomaterial studies, implants in large animals, materials studies, and compression studies.
- In-vivo CT scanners help in scanning longer objects, which are utilized in studies examining the impact of nutrition, drugs, body mass, and treatments on hormones, cancers, bone quality, bone growth, and numerous regeneration models.
Based on the Application Insights, the market is segmented into Life Sciences, Bones, Dentistry, Plants and Food, Material Science, Geology/Oil and Gas Geology.
- In 2020, the life sciences segment dominated the market for micro-CT and accounted for the largest revenue share of 23.8%.
- Owing to the high-resolution structural imaging and nanomechanical measurements provided by the micro-CT, which provide valuable insights to study various life sciences applications, which include animal anatomy, soft tissues, oncology, structural biology, neurosciences, cardiovascular studies, and so on.
- The dentistry segment is anticipated to register the fastest growth rate over the forthcoming years. Since micro-CT has a wide range of applications in dentistry, from dental research to treatment. Micro-CT produces high-quality images of the tooth and its surrounding structures from the outer to the innermost structure.
- The direction and length of cracks in teeth, as well as the filling conditions of fillers in dental caries with nondestructive circumstances, can be determined using micro-CT imaging equipment. Simultaneously, the Computed Tomography (CT) scanning data can be used to construct a 3D digital model of the teeth.
