World Sensors Market in Healthcare Applications (2012-2017), Global Forecast & Analysis - Segmentation by Type of Sensor, Monitoring, Therapeutic, Diagnostic, Drug Discovery & Delivery Applications, Geographical & Country-wise Markets
The use of sensors in the healthcare sector was fueled by the continuous need
for advancements in healthcare electronic devices & equipment to
“sense” and “monitor” temperatures, pressures,
chemical, position, and biological levels of patients and drugs for
applications in diagnostics, therapeutics, monitoring, drug discovery and
delivery; in hospitals and other medical facilities, including
home-treatments. The various sensors that find application in healthcare
include pressure, temperature, chemical, flow, level, position, and image and
biosensors. The market witnessed tremendous boost from numerous medical
applications in various devices of hospital and home monitoring systems,
advanced therapeutic systems, clinical, and home diagnostics. The medical
segment provided way for rapid penetration of image sensors with several new
advancements using fiber-optic technology in image sensing equipments,
increased use of temperature sensors with several temperature sensing devices
such as digital thermometers, and so on.
