In this study, we investigated the number of categories of veterinary medical devices registered by Animaland Plant Quarantine Agency (QIA) by 2013. We also analyzed the sales of the veterinary medical devices reportedfrom Korea Animal Health Product Association (KAHPA) from 2011 to 2013. The registration rate of veterinary medicaldevices has sharply increased since 2008, and a total of 495 categories from 141 companies were registered by theend of 2013. The multi-frequency products registered for companion animals were ultrasound imaging system, x-raysystem, microchip & reader, telemetry system transmitter, and hematology analyzer. The veterinary medical devicesfor farm animals include marker, artificial insemination catheter, injector, and ultrasound imaging system. Of theseproducts, the multi-frequency products dominated on the veterinary medical devices market. The market size of 223(45.0%) veterinary medical devices was estimated to be approximately 20.6 billion Won in 2013; the proportion ofdomestic products and imports was 56% to 44%; the proportion of domestic demand and export was 82% to 18%,respectively. This study suggested that the registration and sales of the veterinary medical devices have graduallyincreased as the demand of health care services got bigger in Korea.
