6.Summary
As mentioned above, in the 2008 domestic market, the therapeutic system increased. However, the following diagnostic equipment decreased: the X-ray, the CT, the diagnostic ultrasound, the MRI, and the nuclear medicine. As a result, the total market decreased to 329.4 billion yen (-1 %). In this year, the following decreased in succession to the previous year: the X-ray decreased to 98.5 billion yen (-6 %), the CT to 61.5 billion yen (-5 %), the diagnostic ultrasound to 40.6 billion yen (-3 %), the MRI to 43.5 billion yen (-1 %), the nuclear medicine to 11.8 billion yen (-22 %) and the related items and accessories to 11.4 billion yen (-29 %). On the other hand, while the total market decreased, only image processing systems increased to 42.3 billion yen (+36%).
