Competitive strategies, such as acquisitions and indication extensions for existent products, adopted by players are expected to trigger the growth of the market. The companies stirring changes in the space is restricted to few in number. Among these, Guerbet, GE Healthcare, and Bayer were the forerunners with top-selling drugs in their respective portfolios and commanding more than 40% share in 2016. Bayer holds a prominent position in the arena owing to its leading MRI agent, Gadavist/Gadovist, a macrocyclic gadolinium agent. Guerbet is giving a stiff competition to its contemporaries since it has joined forces with Mallinckrodt. The acquisition has led to a streamlined portfolio of MRI and x-ray/CT contrast materials, which now hold center position in this space. GE competes with Omnipaque and Visipaque as a part of its suite of offerings, which account for nearly 12.0% market share.
Along with increasing incidence of chronic diseases, rising demand and use of diagnostic imaging modalities is driven by advancements in the underlying technologies. Equipment advancements include innovation such as syringeless injectors, which help in achieving greater accuracy in dose delivery, shorter examination time, and higher patient throughput.
Regionally, North America will continue to dominate the contrast media agents market throughout the forecast period. Presence of well-established healthcare infrastructure, availability of advanced technologies as well as recent launch of new contrast media agents for specific indications are contributing to the growth of the region.
