Breast Biopsy Devices Market

Industry Overview

A breast biopsy is a procedure that involves surgical removal of tissue or fluid to determine the presence of a disease. It requires the guiding system to locate an abnormality in the breast region. The Global Breast Biopsy Devices Market is growing at a significant rate, due to the mounting occurrence of breast cancer among women and the escalating number of breast cancer screening programs. Different types such as needle breast biopsy and open surgical breast biopsy contributed to the breast biopsy devices market size. The market has witnessed a high demand for needle breast biopsy due to the need for a scar-less and painless procedure.

Breast biopsy indicates a specific process in which tissue or fluid is removed surgically to test the presence of any disease in the breast region. A specific guiding system is needed to detect any anomalies. The process helps in accurate diagnosis and distinguishes between benign and malignant situations. This information is very helpful for doctors as it guides them to make the best treatment decisions and timely initiation of the necessary therapies such as surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy.

The global breast biopsy devices market is growing at a significantly high CAGR due to the growing incidence of breast cancer as well as the number of screening programs. There are different types of biopsies done such as needle breast biopsy and open surgical breast biopsy, where the former has a higher demand being a scarless and painless process.

One of the most significant challenges faced by the global breast biopsy device market is the strict and often indeterminate regulatory guidelines regarding the devices. However, growth opportunities are offered by the rising incidents of breast cancer that need proper diagnosis and screenings for early detection and time intervention.

Market Segmentation

Insight by Product

The global breast biopsy devices market is segmented based on product into biopsy needles, guidance systems, localization wires, biopsy tables, and others. Out of all these segments, the biopsy needles segment is expected to account for a larger market share during the forecast period due to higher adoption and higher preference for a painless and scarless procedure.
