Global Cryoablation Devices Market By Overview

Introduction:

Cryoablation Devices Market was valued at US$ 345.6 million in 2024 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 13.7% to reach US$ 1243.6 million by 2034.

Cryoablation is a procedure in which an extremely cold instrument called a cryoprobes and liquid are used to freeze and destroy abnormal tissue. These cryoprobes are cooled with substances such as liquid nitrous oxide, liquid nitrogen, and compressed argon gas. Cryoablation procedure can be used to treat certain types of cancer and some conditions that can cause cancer.

Increasing prevalence of cancer, nerve diseases, and cardiac arrhythmia is a key factor driving growth of the global market. In addition, high demand for minimally invasive procedures, coupled with availability of customized probes for cryoablation are propelling growth of the target market. Increasing adoption of cryoablation devices by numbers of physicians is a factor expected to propel growth of the global cryoablation devices market over the forecast period.

Moreover, when patient operated with cryoablation procedure require very short hospital stay along with quick recovery is a factor expected to propel growth of the global cryoablation devices market over the forecast period.  However, cryoablation devices procedure leaves the tissues that are affected with unusual sensations such as irritation of the skin, numbness, and tingling is one of major hampering factors in the target market.

For instance, Results of past and interim results of current trials of cryoablation of stage I low-grade breast cancer with curative intent are promising, with an overall clinical success rate of 98% and recurrence rates consistent with those expected following lumpectomy. This proves success rate of cryoablation therapy in cancer and thus boost the Cryoablation Devices Market.

Global Cryoablation Devices Market By Dynamics

Cryoablation Devices Market Key Drivers:

Growing Incidence of Cancer

According to WHO, Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide, accounting for nearly 10 million deaths in 2020, or nearly one in six deaths.

Cryoablation is increasingly being used as a minimally invasive treatment option for various types of cancer, including liver, kidney, prostate, breast, and lung cancers. The rising incidence of cancer globally is a significant driver for the demand for cryoablation devices. A thin needle, called a cryoprobe, is placed directly into the cancerous growth under ultrasound or CT scan guidance. The cryoprobe circulates extremely cold gases like liquid nitrogen to freeze and kill cancer cells. The tissue is then allowed to thaw. Finally, another cycle of freezing is performed. The time required depends on the size, location, and type of tumor.

For instance, in June 2023, doctors at Sir Ganga Ram Hospital have performed cryoablation for cancer treatment on a patient who was not suitable for surgery. According to hospital officials, this is the first time such a procedure has been done in North India. The patient, a 55-year-old woman from Delhi, was suffering from cancer of the gall bladder and was operated on earlier as well. When the cancer spread to the liver, she consulted doctors again. While she was not fit for surgery, cryoablation was chosen for her.

Advancements in Technology

Technological advancements in cryoablation devices have improved their efficacy, safety, and precision, making them more appealing to both patients and healthcare providers. Innovations such as real-time imaging guidance and improved cryoprobes have expanded the application of cryoablation in treating tumors.

Integration of advanced imaging modalities such as ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and computed tomography (CT) into cryoablation systems allows for real-time visualization of the treatment area. This enables precise targeting of tumors and surrounding tissues, minimizing damage to healthy tissue and improving treatment outcomes.

Cryoablation Devices Market Restrains:

High Cost of Cryoablation Procedures

Cryoablation procedures can be costly due to the equipment, technology, and expertise required. The high upfront costs associated with purchasing cryoablation devices and the need for specialized training for healthcare professionals may limit their adoption, particularly in regions with limited healthcare budgets or reimbursement constraints.

Although cryoablation is promising for use in low-resource settings, most devices are not designed with cost and resource constraints in mind or for use in LMICs (low- and middle-income countries). Current cryoablation systems are too expensive for use in LMICs, as a single treatment can cost upwards of $10,000, with over half of the cost coming from disposable, single-use parts.

Competition from Alternative Technologies

Cryoablation faces competition from alternative minimally invasive treatment options, such as radiofrequency ablation (RFA), microwave ablation, and high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU). These alternative technologies may offer comparable efficacy and cost-effectiveness in certain clinical scenarios, leading to competition within the market.
