- Ultrasound gels are essential for diagnostic imaging procedures, providing the necessary coupling medium for high-quality sound wave transmission during ultrasound scans. They are widely used in various applications such as obstetrics, cardiology, musculoskeletal imaging, and diagnostic procedures for chronic diseases
- The demand for ultrasound gels is primarily driven by factors such as the aging population, the increasing prevalence of chronic conditions like cardiovascular diseases and diabetes, and the rising adoption of non-invasive diagnostic techniques across medical fields
- North America is expected to dominate the ultrasound gels market due to its advanced healthcare infrastructure, high healthcare spending, and the increasing use of ultrasound in diagnostic imaging
- Asia-Pacific is expected to be the fastest growing region in the ultrasound gels market during the forecast period due to growing healthcare investments, rising awareness of diagnostic imaging, and improving access to medical technologies
- Non-sterile segment is expected to dominate the market with a market share of 70.7% due to its widespread use in routine diagnostic imaging procedures across various healthcare settings. Non-sterile ultrasound gels are typically used in outpatient clinics, diagnostic centers, and for general imaging applications like pregnancy scans, musculoskeletal assessments, and abdominal ultrasounds
