Home-made b-gauge market to international markets favor portable devices (1)

B-meter is the use of high frequency sound waves (more than 2 million cycles per second) on the human body for Nondestructive Inspection of a medical imaging diagnostic instrument.

The use of ultrasonic easy reflection characteristics and image grayscale, can clearly show human tissues, organs, fetuses. Now, the b-flat from the traditional b-(2-b-) development to stereo b-(3-dimensional ultrasound). The latter not only enables doctors from various angles to the patient organizations and organs of high-definition images, you can also record, store related information, so that later consultation. And color Doppler ultrasound can more clearly show the gastric and duodenal ulcers inside, and pancreatic, prostate, colorectal lesions within. All in all, b-instrument has become an essential clinical review a common diagnosis instruments.

Home-made b-gauge global flower

To date, there are hundreds of companies and institutions of higher learning and research institutions engaged in the development and production of various ultrasonic instrument.

And, our home-grown b-meter large exports to overseas markets. According to statistics, in 2001, China's export of b-instrument only dozens, but since 2005, b-instrument export growth year after year. In 2005, China's b-instrument exports to $ 5384; in 2006, exports soared to 8960 million, an increase of 40 per cent; in 2007, exports totalled $ 9340 million, up 5 percent; in 2008, exports totalled $ 1.09 billion, compared to 2007 and increased 5.88%. Our b-instrument markets up to 215 countries and territories, it is "China's b-gauge global flowering". United States, Germany, Japan and European countries become China's b-meter main export markets.

This progress beyond it.

For the past two years, United States, Europe and Japan and other developed countries the poor economic conditions generally, and our b-instrument on these countries export instead of reducing litres, this indicates that the last few years China's b-meter has to high-quality and low price firmly occupy the developed countries of low to medium range b-instrument markets.

Concern is that the earlier developed and produced by b-instrument of Guangdong Province, has developed into a national b-for export of the "leader" (annual export thousands of b-instrument), the number of b-instrument exports accounted for national b-for 25% of total exports.

Therefore, the Guangdong province become veritable "Township of the Chinese ultrasonic instrument."

Production and marketing highly centralized

However, China's b-gauge 5 largest export market remains as Japan, China, Hong Kong, Germany, the United States and Switzerland.

On the main market of b-instrument exports accounted for my b-instrument exports of 53%, and on other more than 200 countries and territories of the b-instrument exports and only 47%. At present, domestic approximately 106 companies engaged in the export business b-instrument. Of these, five producers export volume is large, in order to: 1. Shenzhen MINDRAY bio-medical electronics AG; 2. Shanghai Alor card medical instruments company; 3. Wuxi xiangsheng medical imaging co., Ltd.; 4. Shantou Institute of ultrasonic instruments; 5. Ville de Electronics Co., Ltd. in Shenzhen. These five companies number b-instrument exports accounted for my b-instrument for 68% of total exports. This shows that domestic production and marketing of b-instrument is highly centralized structure.

This year the market is still optimistic about the

Last year, many industry insiders worry that the United States and other developed countries because of the economic crisis and the reduction of impact on China's b-instrument, medical diagnostic instrument of imports, but this is not a reality.

Its cause and in recent years China's b-instrument quality and prices in international markets competitive. According to foreign media, China b-(b/w and color) for quality comparable European and American companies products, but the price is cheaper.

For 2010 for developed country B Super instrument export trends, the industry is still optimistic about the "express".

This is because, in the shadow of the economic crisis in Europe and the United States, due to the decrease in revenue may be further squeezed domestic total expenditure on health care costs. However, people's health needs will not reduce, the developed countries is likely to low labor cost countries to purchase medical equipment, plus a few years ago the Chinese B Super instrument quality has won widespread recognition of the medical profession in developed countries, a growing number of European countries and production in China hospital will be used for b-Scan Tester.
