C-Arms Global Market Report 2024

C-arms, characterized by their distinctive C-shaped design, incorporate radiographic capabilities and are employed for fluoroscopic intraoperative imaging in emergency care, surgical procedures, and orthopedic interventions.

The two main types of C-arms are fixed C-arms and mobile C-arms. Fixed C-arms, large in size, are designed to cater to a broad spectrum of healthcare applications. On the other hand, mobile C-arms are more compact and versatile, suitable for flexible use in different operating rooms within a clinic, catering to various diagnostic imaging and minimally invasive surgical procedures. C-arm detectors, including image intensifiers and flat panel detectors, are applied in diverse medical fields such as cardiology, gastroenterology, neurology, orthopedics, trauma, oncology, and more. C-arms find applications in hospitals, diagnostic centers, specialty clinics, and other healthcare facilities.

The c-arms market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.21 billion in 2023 to $2.35 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.2%. The growth in the historic period is attributed to the increasing prevalence of minimally invasive surgical procedures, heightened utilization of C-arms in trauma centers, a concerted effort to minimize radiation exposure to patients, the expansion of the global healthcare market, and growth in healthcare infrastructure.

The c-arms market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.95 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.9%. The growth in the forecast period is attributed to the increasing adoption of hybrid operating rooms, the use of C-arms in telemedicine and remote consultations, growing demand for customizable and modular C-arm systems, increased utilization of C-arms for medical training and education purposes, and a rising shift towards patient-centric care. Major trends in the forecast period include sustainability and green healthcare practices, the incorporation of AI for image processing, automated measurements, and enhanced diagnosis, integration of robotics with C-arms, technological advancements, and the adoption of hybrid operating rooms.

The surge in chronic diseases is expected to drive the growth of the C-arms market, with an increasing incidence of conditions such as heart diseases, cancer, diabetes, obesity, arthritis, Alzheimer's, and epilepsy. C-arms play a crucial role in providing fluoroscopic imaging during various surgical and orthopedic procedures. As reported by the National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP) in June 2021, 868,000 Americans were projected to die annually from heart strokes and heart diseases. This substantial rise in chronic diseases contributes to the expanding demand for C-arms in medical procedures, propelling market growth.

The anticipation of an increased healthcare expenditure is poised to fuel the expansion of the C-arms market. Healthcare expenditure, representing the total financial outlay on healthcare-related goods and services within a healthcare system or economy, is pivotal for supporting the development and accessibility of medical technologies such as C-arms. According to data from the Canadian Institute for Health Information in November 2022, healthcare expenditure rose to 0.8%, reaching $331 billion in 2022 compared to 7.6% in 2021. This upward trend in healthcare spending is a driving force behind the growth of the C-arms market.

A notable trend in the C-arms market is the prevalence of technological developments. Numerous companies are actively engaged in launching new products and introducing innovations to their C-arm platforms. In May 2023, Philips, a Netherlands-based medical equipment company, introduced the Zenition 10 mobile C-arm system, the latest addition to the Zenition series. Tailored to meet the needs of orthopedics, trauma, and various surgical areas, the Zenition 10 offers customizable presets, an uninterruptible power supply, and the flexibility to move seamlessly between operating rooms, showcasing the continuous evolution and advancements in C-arm technology.

Major players in the C-arms market are strategically forming partnerships to enhance market revenues. Collaborations in the realm of C-arms can lead to the development of more advanced and customized medical imaging solutions, ultimately contributing to improved patient care and a better understanding of the practical challenges faced by healthcare professionals. For example, in June 2023, GE HealthCare, a prominent US-based medical technology company, and DePuy Synthes, a leading US-based medical device company, announced a strategic partnership in spine surgery. This collaboration aims to better serve surgeons and address the complex needs of patients by distributing GE Healthcare's OEC 3D Imaging System alongside DePuy Synthes' extensive product portfolio to spine surgeons and patients across the United States.

In April 2021, Carestream Health, a notable US-based provider of X-ray imaging systems, acquired Ziehm Imaging in an undisclosed deal. This acquisition enabled Carestream and its clients to access one of the most cutting-edge C-arms available in the market. Ziehm Imaging, a Germany-based company specializing in the development of C-arms, contributed to strengthening Carestream's position in the medical imaging domain.
