Outpatient Imaging To Grow Through 2013
The field of medical imaging is a field that is going strong since people are increasingly aware of the importance of getting various types of preventive health screening in order to detect diseases in their early stages and to prevent them from becoming fatal. This field is likely to continue to remain strong, with a high level of growth for outpatient imaging expected to take place between now and 2013.
One report shows that there was a three-fold increase in both MRI and CT scanning in the ten year period between 1996 and 2006. It further shows that this type of increase is likely to continue not only for the MRI and CT scans but also for other preventive imaging scans including the ultrasound and PET scans as well as nuclear medicine scanning.
