The Obscure gastrointestinal bleeding segment is projected to account for 51.2% of the small bowel enteroscopes market revenue in 2025 maintaining its lead in the indication category. This segment’s growth is influenced by the complexity of diagnosing bleeding sources that cannot be identified through routine endoscopy. Physicians have increasingly relied on small bowel enteroscopy to visualize hidden lesions ulcers and vascular abnormalities responsible for chronic blood loss.
The growing number of patients presenting with unexplained anemia and intermittent bleeding has further driven the demand for these specialized procedures. Early and accurate detection of bleeding sites plays a critical role in guiding treatment decisions and reducing the need for repeat diagnostic workups.
As awareness of obscure gastrointestinal bleeding rises among healthcare providers the use of small bowel enteroscopes is expected to remain strong in this clinical application.
The Hospitals segment is projected to contribute 58.9% of the small bowel enteroscopes market revenue in 2025 continuing its dominance in end user adoption. This segment has gained momentum as hospitals remain the primary settings for complex gastrointestinal diagnostics and interventions. Hospitals have invested in specialized endoscopy suites and skilled gastroenterology teams capable of performing advanced enteroscopy procedures.
Additionally hospitals offer the comprehensive patient care needed for managing complicated cases where obscure bleeding may be linked to other underlying conditions. The availability of post-procedure monitoring and multidisciplinary support has further strengthened the hospital segment’s role in the market.
With the ongoing expansion of tertiary care centers and the rising focus on improving diagnostic pathways hospitals are expected to maintain their leadership in the adoption of small bowel enteroscopes.
Rising demand for accurate and improved diagnosis and treatment for gastrointestinal disorders along with advancing technologies will bolster the growth in the small bowel enteroscope market. Further, small bowel enteroscopes are accepted for a wide range of indications including obscure gastrointestinal bleeding, small bowel tumors, polyposis syndromes, and others.
Certain indications currently under investigation are Crohn’s disease, refractory celiac disease, and small bowel obstruction. The rising prevalence of these diseases will aid the growth of the small bowel enteroscope market.
Surging cases of gastrointestinal disorders and gastrointestinal bleeding in patients will also boost the adoption of small bowel enteroscopes in hospitals, clinics, and diagnostics laboratories. This will further contribute to the growth of the global small bowel enteroscope market.
The high cost of enteroscope in emerging economies is one of the key factors limiting the growth of the small bowel enteroscope market
The small bowel enteroscopes require skilled professionals trained in the medicine and study of enteroscope to perform the examination. Hence, the dearth of trained professionals might impede growth.
Besides this, small bowel enteroscopes require a prolonged time to perform the examination which makes medical professionals reluctant to opt for enteroscope. Hence, the availability of alternative options to enteroscope might hinder sales.
Technological advancements, a rise in demand for more sophisticated diagnoses of gastrointestinal disorders, and an upsurge in applications of small bowel enteroscopes are anticipated to fuel the growth of the small bowel enteroscope market in the Asia Pacific.
The small bowel enteroscope market is expected to grow at a significant growth rate in Asia Pacific. This is owing to the increasing number of bowel disorders in densely populated countries such as India and China.
Swiftly changing healthcare systems and policies, certain government initiatives to improve healthcare and higher per capita healthcare expenditure are likely to propel small bowel enteroscope market growth in Asia Pacific.
The high prevalence of gastrointestinal disorders especially inflammatory bowel syndrome will drive the market for small bowel enteroscope. According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and Prevention, an estimated 426.3 million USA adults were reported to be diagnosed with inflammatory bowel syndrome in 2020.
This, growing awareness about gastrointestinal disorders, access to advanced healthcare facilities, and increasing investments in the healthcare sector will boost the small bowel enteroscope market in North America.
Leading players present in the global small bowel enteroscope market include Pentax Medical, Olympus Corporation, and FUJIFILM Holdings America Corporation among others.
The market is fairly competitive with key companies in the market engaged in developing their portfolio of new enteroscope products and adopting a commercialization strategy. Leading manufacturers are currently carrying out multiple clinical trials related to other indications of small bowel enteroscope to expand their product portfolio and strengthen their position in the market.
