Dearth of skilled ultrasound technicians and sonographers especially in countries such as UK and Canada hinder industry expansion. Lack of availability of these skilled professionals is resulting in increased patient waiting time for ultrasound examinations and underuse of the equipment.

Existence of barriers such as lack of training, high machine maintenance cost, absence of support personnel, lack of gel, irregular electrical supply, discomfort in image interpretation and liability concerns hamper technology adoption in developing countries.

2D technology held significant industry share in 2016 being the most common and traditional method used for scanning. The technology produces a series of flat, two-dimensional image of the scanned tissue. Increasing usage of newer technologies such as 3D, 4D and 5D which provide a more detailed and realistic image as compared to 2D will impede segment growth.

Compact or handheld ultrasound devices segment will grow at the fastest pace during the forecast period as they offer greater convenience due to their small size and light weight. Furthermore, they are highly beneficial for medical professionals practicing in acute care settings where transportation of the patient may be difficult owing to the constantly changing health condition.
