The global colposcopy market is expected to gain prominence over the forecast period (2018–2023). It is estimated that the global colposcopy market is expected to register a CAGR of ~6.8% during the forecast period, 2018–2023.
A colposcope is basically a surgical instrument similar to an electric microscope with a source of light that allows gynecologists to examine the vagina and cervix more clearly and under proper magnification. The rising prevalence of cervical cancer around the globe is the primary factor driving the growth of the colposcopy market.
For instance, according to the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2017, cervical cancer is the second most reason for the death of women worldwide. Currently, awareness programmes are conducted by numerous NGOs focusing on health-related issues in women such as cervical cancer which will increase the demand for colposcopes.
Despite these drivers, factors such as high installation cost of this device and lack of skilled clinical users to operate colposcopes are likely to restrain the growth of the market.
