C-Arms Devices Market

C-Arms Devices Market Overview

The C-arms devices market was valued US$ 1.7 billion in 2019 and is projected to be worth US$ 2.45 billion by 2027, exhibiting a CAGR of 4.2% during the forecast period 2022-2032.

C-arms are used for intraoperative imaging in different arenas including cardiology and Imaging systems are quickly becoming a must-have technology in all hospitals and this is expected to propel the demand for C-arms devices.

Sales of C-arms devices is likely to skyrocket as they produce high-resolution X-ray images in real-time, allowing physicians to monitor progress at any point during the procedure.

As a result, treatment outcomes are improved, and patients recover faster which encourages health specialists from around the globe to choose C-arms devices thereby fostering the demand for C-arms devices.

Rising expected use of C-arms in the future coupled with demand for healthcare infrastructure in developing countries boosts the sales of C-arms devices as a result of growing demand for C-arms devices worldwide.

With an increased emphasis on the portability of C-arms, companies producing mini-C-arms have a significant market opportunity to enlarge their C-arms devices market share.

Several mini-C-arms are specifically designed for extremity imaging and as they have a smaller footprint and greater mobility than full-size C-arms, it creates a conducive environment for higher sales of C-arms devices.

The size and cost of currently available mini-C-arm systems vary significantly depending on the functionalities provided and the same provide specialists with a broad variety of options, in turn fostering the demand for C-arms devices.

Manufacturers strive to consolidate the C-arms devices market share by distinguishing their products based on mobility, the field of view, and alternative imaging technologies.

OrthoScan Inc.'s FD Pulse, for example, is the world's first mini C-arm with pulsed fluoroscopy.

Several product launches are expected in the mini-C-arms segment which rises the demand for C-arms devices during the forecast period, as companies continue to upgrade their product offerings and C-arms devices market share at a rapid pace.

For example, Orthoscan Inc. (Ziehm Imaging's sister company) introduced the Orthoscan TAU family of innovative mini-sized C-arms, representing the manufacturer's new generation of mini-sized C-arms.

As a result of these factors, the mini-C-arm segment is expected to grow significantly over the forecast period accelerating the overall sales of C-arms devices.

What are a Few Forces Shaping the C-Arms Devices Market?

C-Arms is medical imaging device that is based on X-ray technology and can be used flexibly and such flexibility is a significant factor rising the demand for C-arms devices.

C-arm producing real-time images for intraoperative applications, being a unique feature, allowing physicians to see into a patient’s anatomy, making procedures less invasive and more effective results in high sales of C-arms devices  

Presently, demand for C-arm devices is driven by the technological advancement in healthcare industry, by aging population, and increasing prevalence of osteoporosis disease.

A few major factors augmenting the sales of C-arms devices is the rapid innovation in production and modelling technologies, increasing privatization in the healthcare sector, rising adoption of refurbished medical devices in emerging countries.

However, lack of skilled professional and lack of standardization and harmonization of policies act as a barrier to the sales of C-arms devices globally.
