Global Smart Biopsy Market By Application (Breast cancer, Skin cancer, Liver cancer, Prostate cancer and Others) By Region, Industry Analysis and Forecast, 2019 - 2025

Analysis of Market Size & Trends

The Global Smart Biopsy Market size is expected to reach $3.2 billion by 2025, rising at a market growth of 5.3% CAGR during the forecast period. A biopsy is referred to as the surgical removal of tissue from a human organ to determine the presence of disease, primarily cancer. Cardiologists, surgeons, and radiologists conduct this medical procedure. The key factor responsible behind smart biopsy market growth is the fact that this is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that can mitigate the complications and after-effects of biopsy devices.

Global Smart Biopsy Market Size

The medical sector has witnessed a multitude of recent trends such as an increase in private funding for cancer research, government spending on healthcare worldwide, escalating technological up-gradation, and promising reimbursement policies. These trends are projected to push the smart biopsy industry with significant growth rates. According to the World Cancer Report, there will be 15 million additional cases of cancer by the end of 2020. The worldwide pervasiveness of cancer diseases like lung cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer, etc., would drive the market scenario. People are more health-conscious these days and switch to minimally invasive techniques over traditional techniques in order to ensure complete security.

Global Smart Biopsy Market Share
