Abstract

This study creates technology roadmaps for medical imaging. Four roadmaps were created for future products to include advanced imaging, high-tech imaging, super-tech imaging, and ultra-tech imaging. A literature review of academic and medical sources was conducted to collect data and review TRM (technology roadmapping) methodologies. An analysis was performed for each level of the roadmaps to include market drivers, product features, technology capabilities, and resources. The aforementioned levels were linked and timelines provided to construct the roadmaps. The probable future products were advanced computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and positron emission and ultrasound devices. To generate the technology roadmap layers, this chapter explores different tools like SWOT, QFD, scenario analysis, and gap analysis.
