Colposcopes market growth and forecast
According to the colposcopes market analysis, Technavio’s market research analyst predicts the global colposcopes market to grow steadily at a CAGR of above 5% by 2021. One of the major drivers for this market is the rapidly growing technological advances in the colposcopes market. The growing technological advances are expected to fuel the adoption of colposcopes among end-users.
Conventional colposcopes cannot detect smaller, high-grade lesions present in individuals with poor cytology results. Therefore, the vendors have focused on developing advanced colposcopes to address this challenge. This has paved the way for the shift from optical colposcopes to digital video scopes. Also, it assists the clinicians with the process of evaluating the cervix and selecting the biopsy sites if required. These technological advances in colposcope will propel the global colposcopes market size during the forecast period.
