"It's on our radar; it's an interesting topic and our researchers are focused on it heavily," says Gungor.

A new year and a lift for CT
Despite the ongoing effects of the DRA and what's to come regarding the dreaded utilization rate, most of those surveyed have forecast relief for the CT industry in 2010.
"Both CT and PET/CT markets in North America enjoyed significant upticks in Q4 2009 providing optimism that further improvements may be expected in 2010," says Young.
"A lot of hospitals had to refocus money from capital equipment to their pension plans and a lot of purchases were put on hold. They weren't canceled; they were just delayed. Now those delays are lifting up."

This is good news for manufacturers and excellent news for hospitals, which could finally start bringing in new technology after an era of capital freeze. Whether it's a 16-slice, a 64-slice, a 320-row or dual-energy system, CT appears to be slicing through what could turn out to be the most troublesome period for the industry since the turn of the century.
