Urology Lasers Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Type (Holmium Laser System, Diode Laser Systems, Thulium Laser System, Others), By Applications (Urinary Calculi, Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, Tumors, Others), By End-User (Hospitals, Urology Clinics, Ambulatory Surgical Centres, Others) and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

The laser is preferred in urology due to the ability of the it to ablate tissues with minimal internal bleeding. Moreover, the lasers being minimally invasive in nature, it has concentrated most of the interest in urological practices. Nowadays, lasers have been adopted widely in urology for treatment and to deal with many conditions such as urinary calculi, stricture, benign prostatic hyperplasia, and tumours. The urology lasers market is growing due to factors such as growing geriatric population, increasing prevalence of chronic kidney diseases.

Increase in the prevalence of kidney diseases and the growing geriatric population are the major factors driving the growth of the market. The elderly population is more prone to develop various kidney problems and conditions. According to the National Institute of Health 2017, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is one of the most general diseases affecting kidneys in elderly people and the most common source of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). The prevalence of BPH is more among elderly population more than 40 years of age. Moreover, according to the journal of urology 2018, urolithiasis is expected to affect 12% of the global population by 2025. The overall growth of the market can be accredited to the increasing geriatric population, technological advancements, and minimally invasiveness nature of the lasers. Also rising initiatives by public and private organizations to improve healthcare across the globe is fuelling the growth of this market.

However, high cost of the lasers and stringent regulatory requirements for the medical approval of lasers are also impeding the growth of the market.
