Global Markets For Optical Coherence Tomography Technologies To Reach Nearly $1.1 Billion By 2017

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) can be used where standard excisional biopsy is hazardous or impossible, to reduce sampling errors, and to guide interventional procedures. The unique capabilities of OCT high-resolution and cross-sectional imaging make it an ideal choice for the diagnosis and clinical management of many diseases. Increasing R&D spending, technological advances, and improved access to health care will drive significant growth in this market for at least the next five years.
