Bracco Imaging S.p.A., Bayer HealthCare and Guerbet Group to Dominate the Contrast Injector Market

The contrast injector market is projected to reach USD 636.1 Million by 2021 from USD 445.5 Million in 2016, growing at a CAGR of 7.4% during the forecast period. The contrast injector market growth can primarily be attributed to factors such as the large number of approvals for contrast agents in different geographies and increasing number of public and private diagnostic centers. On the other hand, the side effects and allergic reactions associated with contrast agents are expected to limit the market growth to a certain extent. In the coming years, the contrast media injector market is expected to witness the highest growth rate in the Asia-Pacific region.

A number of key players are competing against each other in order to expand their existing customer base. In 2015, the contrast injector market was dominated by Bracco Imaging S.p.A (Italy), Bayer HealthCare (Germany), and Guerbet Group (France). Other players in this market include GE Healthcare (U.S.), Medtron AG (Germany), ulrich GmbH & Co. KG (Germany), AngioDynamics (U.S.) Sino Medical- Device Technology Co., Ltd. (China), Apollo RT Co., Ltd. (China), VIVID IMAGING (China), and Nemoto Kyorindo Co., Ltd. (Japan).
