The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rapid innovation in surgical robotics, increasing investments in smart operating rooms, growing adoption in outpatient and ambulatory settings, integration of AI-driven surgical decision support, expanding training programs for robotic-assisted surgery. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of minimally invasive robotic surgeries, rising integration of real-time imaging with surgical navigation, growing demand for precision and accuracy in complex procedures, expansion of robot-assisted procedures across multiple specialties, increasing use of simulation-based surgical training.

The rising prevalence of neurological disorders is expected to drive growth in the image-guided and robotic-assisted procedures market in the coming years. Neurological disorders are medical conditions affecting the nervous system - including the brain, spinal cord, and nerves - resulting in impairments in movement, cognition, and other bodily functions. Factors such as poor diet, physical inactivity, and chronic stress contribute to the increasing prevalence by negatively impacting brain health and function. Image-guided and robotic-assisted procedures enhance neurological care by improving surgical precision, minimizing invasiveness, and reducing recovery times, making them critical for managing complex cases. For example, in February 2024, Dementia Australia, a non-profit organization, reported that dementia prevalence in the country is projected to increase by 93% by 2054, rising from 421,000 people in 2024 to 812,500. Consequently, the growing prevalence of neurological disorders is driving demand for image-guided and robotic-assisted procedures.

Key companies in this market are focusing on AI-driven real-time surgical navigation and computer-vision technologies to enhance precision and safety in minimally invasive procedures. For instance, in November 2024, Globus Medical, a US-based musculoskeletal device company, launched its ExcelsiusHub navigation platform. The system offers surgeons three workflow options: automatic 3D registration, CT-fluoroscopy image merging, and 2D intraoperative navigation, providing flexibility during complex procedures. It also incorporates real-time patient array monitoring to maintain accuracy, and tissue-sparing drills to minimize anatomical disruption and reduce procedural risks. By reducing reliance on continuous X-ray imaging, the platform supports a safer operating environment while improving efficiency and clinical outcomes.

In August 2024, KARL STORZ, a Germany-based medical device company, acquired Asensus Surgical Inc. for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition aims to establish a surgical robotics hub and advance KARL STORZ’s “Performance Guided Surgery” strategy by integrating its advanced visualization systems with Asensus’s robotic platform. Asensus Surgical, a US-based company, specializes in robotic-assisted surgical systems, including the LUNA surgical robot and digital vision platform, which enhance intraoperative precision through augmented intelligence.

Image-guided and robot-assisted surgical procedures leverage advanced imaging technologies, such as MRI, CT, and ultrasound, along with robotic systems to enhance surgical precision and reduce invasiveness. Image-guided surgery provides real-time navigation, while robot-assisted surgery improves dexterity and control. Together, these technologies improve surgical accuracy, minimize complications, and accelerate patient recovery.

The primary product types in image-guided and robotic-assisted procedures include MRI-guided robots, CT-guided robots, mammography-guided robots, optical imaging-guided robots, and ultrasound-guided robots. An MRI-guided robot, for example, is a robotic assistant designed to function within the MRI bore alongside the patient, enabling intraoperative MR imaging (iMRI) to guide surgical interventions in real time. Key technologies include image-guided surgery, robotic-assisted surgery, augmented reality (AR) surgery, and virtual reality (VR) simulation. These systems are applied across specialties such as orthopedic surgery, neurology, urology, gynecology, and cardiothoracic surgery. They are used for diagnostic purposes, minimally invasive procedures, and by various end-users, including hospitals and outpatient facilities.
