Impact of COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic led to the rescheduling of non-essential diagnostic tests and treatment procedures. The impact of COVID-19 on devices is ambiguous, as surgeries were limited during the pandemic. Before the COVID-19 pandemic, X-Ray detectors were majorly undertaken in hospitals, clinical, and diagnostic facilities. Owing to factors such as travel restrictions and the risk of transmission of the virus, there was a decrease in diagnostic tests and treatment procedures.

As the recovery phase of the COVID-19 pandemic begins, diagnostic tests and treatment procedures are expected to normalize.
