Report Highlights

Image-guided and robot-assisted surgery technologies extend the application of the minimally invasive approach beyond simple procedures using laparoscopy to more complex procedures. Over the past 15 years, such techniques have shifted from emerging to established technologies and have become standard of care in some applications.

The image-guided and robot-assisted surgery markets are expected to continue to experience moderate growth, though at a lower rate than occurred prior to the global economic recession. Despite the decreased growth, the markets will continue to retain healthy profit margins.

Despite the pressures within healthcare sectors in the developed world, there will be increased implementation of advanced image-guided and robotic surgical procedures attributable to the growing realization that they offer increased patient value through improved outcomes, faster recoveries and lower overall costs for complex procedures.
