Market Insights and Analyst View:

The colonoscopy devices market forecast can help stakeholders in this marketplace plan their growth strategies. The report includes growth prospects, along with the colonoscopy devices market trends and their foreseeable impact during the forecast period.

Colonoscopies are performed with reusable scopes. They are flexible, fiber-optic instruments that are introduced into the anus and directed through the colon. The colonoscopes helps endoscopists detect chronic illnesses and check patients for malignant or precancerous diseases. People aged 50 years and above should get colonoscopies as part of a regular cancer screening regimen. In hospitals or ambulatory surgery center (ASCs), the procedures are carried out under mild sedation. Rising prevalence of colorectal cancer and increasing technological advancements in colonoscopy devices by manufacturers contribute to the growing colonoscopy devices market size. However, availability of alternative diagnostic tests for rectal diseases impedes the growth of the market.

Growth Drivers:

Rising Prevalence of Colorectal Cancer Drives Colonoscopy Devices Market Growth

Colorectal cancer is a malignant tumor formed in the tissues of rectum or colon. Rectal and colon cancer are often grouped due to the common features of both conditions. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), colon cancer ranks second in terms of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Globally, there were over 1.9 million new instances of colorectal cancer and over 930,000 deaths from the disease in 2020. There were significant regional differences in the incidence and mortality rates. Europe, Australia, and New Zealand reported the highest incidence rates, whereas Eastern Europe had the highest fatality rates. As per the data provided by European Cancer Information System, in EU-27 countries, colorectal cancer accounted for 12.7% of all new cancer diagnoses and 12.4% of total mortalities caused by the disease in 2020. High prevalence makes it the second most frequently occurring cancer, after breast cancer, and the second leading cause of death, after lung cancer in Europe. According to the WHO, in 2020, there were more than 1.9 million new cases of colorectal cancer, the annual burden of colorectal cancer is expected to rise to 3.2 million new cases (a 63% increase) and 1.6 million deaths (a 73% increase) by 2040.

In the US, colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer type (excluding skin cancer) detected every year. According to the American Cancer Society, in 2023, ~153,000 people were diagnosed with colorectal cancer in the country. These numbers include 106,950 new colon cancer cases (54,420 men and 52,550 women) and 46,050 new rectal cancer cases (27,440 men and 18,610 women). For colorectal cancer, colonoscopy is an important screening test and has become a part of routine cancer screening. Thus, the increasing prevalence of colorectal cancer propels the colonoscopy devices market growth.

Alternatives to colonoscopy include sigmoidoscopy, a less invasive form of colonoscopy, and stool sample testing, one of the noninvasive methods. From the beginning of the 21st century, physicians have been widely recommending colonoscopy to screen patients aged 50 and above for colon cancer. However, in the recent years, they have felt the need for a change in tactics. They are concerned about the cost and hassle of colonoscopy, which discourages people from undergoing these screening procedures. Moreover, equally effective tests are available that are less invasive and less of an ordeal than a colonoscopy. Thus, the availability of alternative diagnostic tests hinders the colonoscopy devices market growth.
