Fixed And Mobile C-arms Market Growth & Trends
The global fixed and mobile C-arms market size is expected to reach USD 3.97 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 5.6%, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Constant technological advancements in C-arm technology and the growing number of surgical procedures are the primary factors driving the growth of the market. In addition, an increase in the number of the geriatric population prone to various chronic disorders is expected to further boost the market growth.

C-arm technology has progressed rapidly with the introduction of mobile and mini C-arms. Its mobility and image quality allow surgeons to track surgery progress at any moment and identify areas for improvement instantly. As a result, treatment outcomes are better, eventually leading to faster patient recovery, further reducing follow-up operations. Furthermore, the introduction of Flat Panel Detectors (FPD) in C-arms has helped in reducing the radiation dose.

The rising prevalence and awareness of chronic diseases like neurological conditions, orthopedics, and cardiovascular diseases, which may require surgical interventions are expected to fuel the growth of the market during the forecast period. Furthermore, a rise in the geriatric population that is more prone to chronic disorders, a growing preference for minimally invasive surgical procedures, and increasing patient awareness are also expected to boost the growth.

Leading manufacturers in the market are implementing various strategies such as acquisition, funding, and product development to expand their product portfolio and manufacturing capacity. For instance, in April 2021, Carestream Health, in collaboration with Ziehm Imaging, announced the addition of a mobile C-arm to its increasing innovative product line. The Ziehm Vision RFD C-arm is expected to expand Carestream’s mobile and fluoroscopic product offerings to benefit even more healthcare providers.
