Technavio healthcare and life sciences analysts highlight the following three market drivrs that are contributing to the growth of the global breast biopsy market:
Growing incidence of breast cancer The rising incidence of breast cancer is fueling the growth of the breast biopsy market worldwide. Breast cancer is the most common cancer prevalent in females and is the second most common cancer overall, after skin cancer. Breast cancer is found to affect men above 50 years of age and is rare in young women. According to multiple research studies, in 2016, about 1.65 million to 1.72 million new breast cancer cases were recorded worldwide in 2012. There are comparatively more cases of breast cancer in less developed nations, amounting to 53%, which is driving physicians to adopt breast biopsies for the diagnosis and screening of tumors in the breast. Advances in breast imaging equipment Technological innovations have resulted in the development of new and improved products in the medical devices industry. Mammography and breast MRI are effective imaging tools used in the detection of breast cancer. There has been a shift from analog to digital imaging to generate more accurate images of the breast. In digital mammography, images are captured as a digital image, unlike analog mammography where the images are captured on films. 2D and 3D digital mammography (also known as a full-field digital mammogram) are benefiting women younger than 65 years of age as they are more accurate at detecting cancer in younger women. Increase in awareness and screening programs Breast cancer is the leading cancer among women in both developed and developing countries. Awareness programs and screening programs can help in diagnosing potential cases of breast cancer, which otherwise remain undetected till late stages. Every year about two million or more women are screened for breast cancer in the UK. The National Health Service (NHS) in the UK invites women aged between 50 and 70 every three years for breast screening program. "Vendors are continuously focusing on providing awareness and knowledge about the diagnostic devices used to diagnose and treat breast cancer. For instance, Hologic actively advocates breast cancer awareness programs and has announced initiatives to be implemented in conjunction with its subsidiaries during the awareness program," says Barath.
