The urology imaging systems market is expected to register 3.7% CAGR between 2022 and 2028, up from 3.8% CAGR recorded during 2013 to 2021, predicts Future Market Insights.

The increasing cases of kidney stones in various parts of the globe is one of the major factors bolstering the sales of urology imaging solutions. According to the National Kidney Foundation, from 2013 to 2014, the prevalence of kidney stones was 10% in the USA ., while in the late 2000s, it was 8.8%. It is likely to surge worldwide in the near future because of obesity, not drinking enough water, and consumption of sugar and protein-rich food and beverages.

Urology Imaging Systems Market

Focus of various governments towards the expansion of their healthcare infrastructure also will fuel the demand for urology scanners. The market is slated to gain from the growing number of innovative diagnostic centers and the high prevalence of chronic diseases.

The increasing geriatric population is often linked to the surging prevalence of bladder outlet obstruction, urological cancer, and urinary incontinence. As per a report published by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2017, the prevalence of urinary incontinence reported in population-based studies ranges from 9.9% to 36.1%. The rate is twice as high in older women as in older men. This trend is likely to continue in the near future, thereby propelling the growth in this market.

Will the Prevalence of UTI and Kidney Stone Propel the Urology Imaging Systems Market?

The surging adoption of cutting-edge urology imaging solutions by non-radiologists is projected to push the growth in this market. Innovations in PC-based designs, miniaturization of ultrasound urology imaging systems, development of the narrow band imaging cystoscopy technology, and the easy access to instant clinical information are estimated to fuel the market in the forthcoming years.

Stone formation and infections in the tract are the two common urological diseases that are expected to increase in the future backed by the high consumption of red meat and alcohol, drinking inadequate amount of water, and lack of knowledge about urological hygiene post sexual intercourse.

The WHO mentioned that an estimated 50% of women report having had an UTI at some point in their lives and more than 1 million hospitalizations take place every year because of this condition worldwide. Thus, governments around the world are taking initiatives to conduct awareness programs to educate the general public about UTI and its treatment options, which is set to bolster the demand for urology imaging solutions.

How Will the USA. Urology Imaging Systems Market Fare?

Rapid Adoption of Portable Urology Scanners to Drive the Market

The rising adoption of portable urology scanners among non-radiology specialists in the USA. is anticipated to drive the urology imaging systems market in North America. Also, the presence of various reputed healthcare device manufacturers, such as GE, Stryker Corporation, Boston Scientific Corporation, and Intuitive Surgical in the USA. is projected to accelerate adoption of urology imaging systems.

In December 2021, for instance, Proton International, a leading provider of proton therapy to cancer patients based in Florida, signed a new contract with Belgium-based medical technology company, Ion Beam Applications S.A. As per this contract, Ion will install the former’s Proteus ONE proton therapy solution in its three-story Radiation Oncology Center.

The system will be equipped with a fully integrated Quality Assurance (QA) hardware and software package, Pencil Beam Scanning (PBS), hand pendant for easy patient positioning, and Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT). Thus, the engagement of leading USA.-based players in signing contracts with healthcare institutions of other countries is anticipated to spur the demand for urology scanners.

Why is the Japan Urology Imaging Systems Market Growing Steadily?

Growing Incidence of Prostate Cancer to Boost Adoption of Narrow Band Imaging Cystoscopy

The rapid expansion of the medical devices industry in Japan is likely to bolster the urology imaging systems market in East Asia during the evaluation period. The country has the highest number of the elderly population in this region. According to the World Bank data, in 2020, about 28.39% percent of Japan's population were aged 65 years and above. This number is projected to surge in the forthcoming years, thereby propelling the need for urology MRI scans.

Furthermore, the higher incidence rate of colorectal cancer and prostate cancer among the aging population is set to spur the market in Japan. The American Association for Cancer Research states that the incidence of prostate cancer surged to 58.7 in 2014 from 7.1 per 100,000 in 1975 in Japan. Driven by the abovementioned factors, the adoption of narrow band imaging cystoscopy technology is likely to grow in this country.
