Market Dynamics

The market witnesses a surge in demand driven by advancements in medical robotics technology, particularly in hard tissue surgical robotic systems tailored for knee & hip surgery, facilitating precise diagnoses and treatments. Supported by automation in healthcare and initiatives from Siemens Healthineers, this growth is further fueled by increased healthcare funding & infrastructure development to address the healthcare needs of an aging population afflicted by chronic diseases and the imperative to mitigate medication errors through innovative solutions like pharmacy automated systems such as Automated Dispensing Machines (ADMs) and Automated Dispensing Cabinets (ADCs). The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases is notably driving the robotic medical imaging systems market growth, although factors such as high costs associated with robotic imaging systems may impede market growth. 

Key Driver

The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases is one of the major drivers impacting the market growth. Physicians and hospitals, that specialize in oncology treatments, are expected to adopt robotic medical imaging systems for screening cancers and tumors. These systems enable shorter treatment and greater patient throughput. This can eventually increase the number of treatments on a daily basis and hence greater revenue. With the adoption of non-invasive surgeries, an increasing number of patients are opting for such treatments compared with traditional radiation treatments. To operate complex tumors, highly sophisticated imaging systems are required that are flexible and adaptable in their movements. Hence, the adoption of robotic medical imaging systems in healthcare facilities is increasing with the rise in the prevalence of chronic diseases.

Key Trends

Partnerships to drive innovation is one of the major trends influencing the market growth and trends.  As the market is at the early growing stage, rapid R&D to enhance the capability of the system is a major trend in the market. Hence, industry players, government organizations, and researchers are collaborating. For instance, Siemens and KUKA have collaborated with European universities to develop a robotic solution with improved precision. The MRI and Ultrasound Robotic Assisted Biopsy (MURAB) project received funding of USD 4.6 million from Horizon 2020 initiative by the EU for robotics development. Similarly, Canon opened Healthcare Optics Research Laboratory in the US in collaboration with Massachusetts General Hospital and Brigham and Women's Hospital to drive R&D in image-guided medical activities with the help of robots. SRI developed robotic technology for Verb Surgical, a new company formed with the strategic collaboration between Verily and Ethicon, a Johnson & Johnson medical device company, focused on developing integrated technologies such as data analysis, advanced imaging, and artificial intelligence to enable greater efficiency in surgical processes.

Key Challenge

High costs associated with robotic imaging systems is one of the major challenges impeding the market growth. The ASP of a robotic imaging system is around USD 1 million, while other imaging systems, which are a substitute for a robotic imaging system, are available for about USD 100,000. Investments made in extensive research and the use of advanced technology to manufacture these systems increase the cost of production. This makes the product unaffordable, especially for many living in developing countries. Moreover, companies are developing advanced solutions that offer the flexibility to diagnose multiple tests with one robotic solution, which further adds up to the overall production cost. In addition, reimbursements for imaging systems have drastically reduced in the last decade, which affected the investments in robotic solutions by healthcare centers. As the technology is new and only a few companies are present in the market, awareness among the people is limited. Therefore, potential customers, especially those in developing countries, look for substitutes for these systems, thereby affecting the customer base of the companies.
