This new report on US mammography equipment market can assist in developing business strategies by understanding the trends shaping and driving the US mammography equipment Market. The report says  that the increased usage of digital mammography equipment, advances in technology, increased public awareness, low dosage features in digital equipment, and highly efficient digital technology are driving growth in the US mammography equipment market. The report can also be found benefcial in new product design and development, framing up of marketing and sales strategies by identifying the market categories poised for a strong growth.  The US mammography equipment market valued at $457.2 m in 2008 is forecasted to grow by 3.6% annually between 2008 and 2015 to reach $584.8 m in 2015. Increased usage of digital mammography equipment, advances in technology, increased public awareness, low dosage features in digital equipment, and highly efficient digital technology will drive growth in this market.

The report reveals that the Full-Field Digital Mammography (FFDM) equipment segment, the largest revenue contributing segment in the US mammography equipment market remains as the key market segment driving growth within the US mammography equipment market. This segment accounted for over 95% of the overall mammography equipment revenue in 2008. Advances in technology and the demand for more efficacious systems are expected to increase the sales of the FFDM equipment in the US.

Another contributing factor that boosted the the usage of mammography equipment is the positive results of the Digital Mammographic Imaging Screening Trial (DMIST). Following the results of the DMIST that showed that digital mammography offered significant benefits for a large percentage of the study population, demand for these systems had increased significantly since 2005. The acceptance has been high and double sided, both from the clinics and from patients. Before the DMIST results had become public, only 10% of US diagnostic clinics were equipped with FFDM equipment. The trial was a success of sorts for the digital mammography market in the US.

Another finding of the research is that in the four-year study of nearly 50,000 women, the accuracy of digital mammography was found to be significantly higher than film-based mammography. The report will help stakeholders to identify emerging players with potentially strong product portfolio and to create effective counter-strategies to gain competitive advantage.
