      significant increase in sales of portable ultrasound equipment in recent
      years. Hand-carried ultrasound or portable medical ultrasound equipment
      is capturing a significant share in the Global Ultrasound Equipment
      market because it is capable of providing adequate support for standard
      imaging procedures at the point of care. Many medical ultrasound
      equipment vendors are coming up with different portable devices to
      increase their market shares. Moreover, radiology departments across the
      world are replacing their traditional cart-based systems with the latest
      portable medical ultrasound equipment.

      According to the report, the increased sales of 3D and 4D medical
      ultrasound equipment is one of the major growth factors of the Global
      Ultrasound Equipment market during the forecast period.

      Further, the report also discusses that inexperienced or untrained
      technicians and healthcare professionals is another risk factor
      hindering this market.
