The fluoroscopy equipment market is attributed to factors such as advantages of FPDs over image intensifiers, the use of fluoroscopy in pain management, reimbursement cuts for analog radiography systems, rising geriatric population, and the growing prevalence of chronic diseases. 

 

According to market research report, "Fluoroscopy Equipment Market by Product (Fixed C-Arms, Fluoroscopy Systems (Remote Controlled, Patient Side), Mobile C-arms), and Application (Diagnostic (Cardio, Gastroenterology, Nephrology), Surgical (Ortho, Neuro, Cardio) - Global Forecast to 2025", is projected to reach USD 7.5 billion by 2025 from USD 5.9 billion in 2020, at a CAGR of 4.8%. 

 

The pandemic has also impacted the operation of manufacturing companies. Companies are functioning with a limited workforce.

The evolution of fluoroscopy systems and C-arms from traditional X-ray image intensifier technology to digital flat-panel detectors (FPDs) has brought about significant advancements in fluoroscopic imaging.

FPDs offer no image distortion, greater sensitivity, and better patient coverage. Due to their advantages, many hospitals are now opting for FPD fluoroscopes. The growing preference for advanced technologies, and the need to shift to new, more efficient products, will be a key factor driving the growth of this market segment. 

 

Moreover, while the quality of images generated from traditional image intensifiers deteriorates as the system ages, this is not the case with FPDs. They continue to deliver the same image quality even years after use and can provide a wider and more dynamic range of imaging compared to image intensifiers.  

 

Fluoroscopic procedures can result in high radiation dose exposure for complex procedures, such as stent placement. These procedures are time-consuming, which greatly increases the radiation that patients are exposed to and the risk of hazards such as radiation-induced injuries to the skin and underlying tissues.

For instance, the ACR (American College of Radiology) Appropriateness Criteria specify that for infants younger than two months, ultrasound should be considered before a fluoroscopic examination. Additionally, CT examinations can completely eliminate the need for a fluoroscopic examination, as a CT scan is noninvasive as opposed to the minimally invasive fluoroscopic imaging.

 

The growing prominence of other non-radiation imaging modalities, like ultrasound, is likely to restrain market growth.
