The global optical imaging market is estimated to be worth USD 1.75 Billion in 2020 and is expected to grow at a 12.1% CAGR during the forecast period of 2015 to 2020. This market is mainly driven by rising geriatric population, increase in research and development activities in the life sciences sector, and increasing application of optical imaging techniques in drug discovery processes and preclinical research are fueling the growth of this market However, the market growth is restricted by factors such as high costs of instruments, stringent regulatory approval procedures, dearth of skilled operators, and insufficient reimbursements for optical imaging procedures.

The global market is segmented on the basis of technique, product, application, end user, and geography. On the basis of technique, the market is segmented into Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT), Hyperspectral Imaging (HSI), Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and Photoacoustic Tomography (PAT). On the basis of product, the market is segmented into imaging systems, cameras, software, imaging lenses, illumination devices, and others. The imaging systems segment is further segmented into OCT systems and spectral imaging systems. Furthermore, on basis of therapeutic area, market is classified into ophthalmology, neurology, oncology, cardiology, dermatology and others. By application, the market is segmented into pathological imaging and intraoperative imaging. By end user, the market is segmented into hospitals and clinics, research laboratories, and pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies.

The global optical imaging market is further divided into four major geographies, North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Rest of the World (RoW). These regions are further analyzed at country level. The research report discusses about the key market drivers, restraints, challenges, and opportunities of the global market and its submarkets. In 2014, the optical coherence tomography (OCT) segment accounted for the largest share of the global market. A major share of OCT segment can be attributed to its wide and successful clinical applications in ophthalmology especially for glaucoma and retinal imaging. OCT segment will continue to dominate this market by 2020, growing at a double-digit CAGR during the forecast period.

North America represented the largest regional market for global market in 2020, followed by Europe, Asia-Pacific, and RoW. North America and Europe regions are expected to witness a healthy growth rate in coming years owing to the rising geriatric population along with increasing incidences of associated disorders related to eye, heart & skin and increasing research activities in pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. On the other hand, the Asia Pacific region represents the fastest growing market for optical imaging products. The high growth rate in Asia-Pacific market is primarily attributed to the rising need for safer imaging modalities in the region, increasing healthcare awareness, increasing R&D budgets and growing number of research laboratories in the region.

The leading players in the global optical imaging market include Carl Zeiss Meditec AG (Germany), St. Jude Medical, Inc. (U.S.), Topcon Medical systems, Inc. (U.S.), and Canon, Inc., Bioptigen, Inc. (U.S.), and Koninklijke Philips N.V. (Netherland).
