One of the oldest modalities used in imaging is known as ultrasound. Sound waves are released in the body, and the returning echoes can be elucidated. It has been used broadly as it is used easily on bedside. This helps to avoid the patient from getting exposed to the ionizing radiation. This technique has been used in various fields such as gynecology, obstetrics, and cardiology. However, there have been limitations when it comes to its application in ophthalmology. In recent years, various upgrades are introduced that help ultrasonic rays to be used as a powerful tool in the assessment of ophthalmic pathology. This helps to create new and high detailed 3D reconstructions and images where manual scanning is not required.
COVID-19 scenario analysis:
- To take care of the infected population the demand for medical supplies is increasing. Respiratory support devices, such as atomizer, life-support machine, oxygen generator, and monitor, 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.
- With rise in the number of COVID-19 cases worldwide, the need for medical supplies keeps on rising both from healthcare professionals and civil populations for precautionary measures.
- Manufacturers of these products have a chance to capitalize on this increased demand for medical supplies to ensure adequate and continuous supply of personal protective equipment in the market.
- Attributed to such factors, COVID 19 is expected to have a significant impact on the micro syringes market.
