Forensic imaging is used in the detection of fingerprints, tire, footwear impression, genetics, and pathology. It plays an important role in crime scene investigation, documentation of complex wounds & injuries, toxicology study, ballistic forensic, virtual autopsy. Virtual autopsy is a non-invasive procedure of autopsy. Forensic imaging method gives extra edge and more reliability over traditional imaging methods. Implementation of artificial intelligence during identification of deaths and its causes in cases of murder or any crime scene can be done with the help of these method. Physical image, logical image, and targeted collection are three methods of forensic imaging.
COVID-19 Impact Analysis
COVID-19 is an infectious disease that originated in Hubei province of the Wuhan city in China in late December. The highly contagious disease, caused by a virus, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), is transmitted from human to human. Since the outbreak in December 2019, the disease has spread to almost 213 countries around the globe with the World Health Organization declaring it a public health emergency on March 11, 2020.
There has been an increase in the demand for medical supplies to take care of infected population. Respiratory support devices such as atomizers, life-support machines, oxygen generators, and monitors are among the majorly used medical devices in primary clinical treatment. Moreover, COVID-19 has led to a huge surge in demand for medical supplies such as personal protective equipment including masks, gloves, and protective eyeglasses. There is an increase in the need for medical supplies, both from healthcare professionals and civil population for precautionary measures, owing to the rise in number of COVID-19 cases worldwide. Manufacturers of these products have a chance to capitalize this increased demand for medical supplies to ensure adequate and continuous supply of personal protective equipment in the market. Therefore, COVID 19 is expected to have a significant impact on the forensic imaging market.
Top Impacting Factors
- Surge in usage of virtual autopsy in judiciary systems, increases in cases of crime rate, increase in demand for advance imaging technologies, rise in minimally invasive imaging methods, and grow in finding or death causes can drive the growth of forensic imaging market.
- In addition, rise in adaptation of highly advanced forensic imaging methods, emerging modern healthcare technology in developing countries, surge in demand for non-invasive imaging methods such as virtopsy, government initiatives to promote advanced forensic research, R&D activities to improve accuracy of forensic image, and increase in infrastructure expenses are key points that boost the growth of forensic imaging market.
- However, high cost of forensic instruments & procedures and lack of accuracy hinder the growth of market.
- Contrarily, rise in judiciary reliability of advance forensic imaging technology are expected to offer lucrative opportunities for the expansion of the market.
