Endoscopy Market Analysis by Product, by Application (Laparoscopy, Gastrointestinal, Obstetrics, Urology, Arthroscopy), by End-Use, and by Region - Global Forecast to 2026

The global endoscopy market size is estimated to be USD 33.76 billion in 2021 and is expected to witness a CAGR of 6.85% during the forecast period. Rising old-age population coupled with rising demand for minimally invasive surgery are key drivers for the growth of the global endoscopy market. Additionally, the increasing R&D in medical devices, changing lifestyle owing to rise in disposable income, government support, and growing cases of chronic diseases are some of the other drivers propelling the market growth. However, the expensive endoscopic procedure and difficult medical reimbursement policies are expected to restrain the global market growth

By Product

Based on product, the market is segmented into robot-assisted, disposable, capsule, rigid, and flexible. In 2021, the flexible endoscopes segment accounted for the largest revenue share with lucrative CAGR during the forecast period. This is attributed to the enhanced efficiency and safety, coupled with technological advancements in the medical-optics field. Disposable endoscopy segment projected to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period. This is attributed to the rising need for one-time use of scopes, thereby minimizing the danger of infections associated with medical devices.

By Application

Based on application, the market is categorized into laparoscopy, gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy, obstetrics/gynaecology endoscopy, urology endoscopy (cystoscopy), arthroscopy, bronchoscopy, otoscopy, mediastinoscopy, laryngoscopy, and others. The gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy segment accounted for the highest revenue in 2021 and is projected to maintain its dominance over the forecast period. The rise in incidences of gastroscopies, increase in adoption of endoscopic procedures for diagnosis and treatment, coupled with the accessibility of advanced gastroscopy devices is a key factor that drives the segment growth. The urology endoscopy segment is anticipated to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period, due to the rising cases of haematuria, bladder cancer, & urinary tract stones, increasing incidences of urinary disorders, coupled with a growing old-age population.

By End-Use

Based on end-use, the market is categorized into ambulatory surgery centres, hospitals, and others. The hospitals segment accounted for the highest revenue in 2021 and is projected to maintain its dominance over the forecast period. The high preference for the endoscopic procedure in hospitals at large-scale is a key factor that drives the segment growth. The ambulatory surgery centres segment is anticipated to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period owing to the shorter treatment wait time experienced by patients at these centres.
