The disposable endoscopes market is growing because of rising procedural volumes caused by increasing chronic gastrointestinal and urological conditions and a growing patient preference for minimally invasive diagnostics. The spread of day-care endoscopy centers and the ongoing shift toward outpatient procedures are also boosting demand. Opportunities for key players include developing affordable single-use endoscopes, adopting them more widely in emerging and underdeveloped healthcare markets, and integrating AI-driven analytics and robotic technologies. These innovations allow for real-time diagnostics, enhance procedural accuracy, and support informed clinical decision-making across various care settings.
The urology endoscopes segment accounted for the largest share in 2024
By type, the disposable endoscopes market is segmented into urology endoscopes, bronchoscopes, cystoscopes, laryngoscopes, GI endoscopes, arthroscopes, and other disposable endoscopes. Among these, the urology endoscopes segment held the largest market share in 2024, due to the rising prevalence of chronic kidney and ureteral diseases, along with increasing incidences of prostate disorders. Urology endoscopes, including ureteroscopes, nephroscopes, resectoscopes, and urethroscopes, are widely used for diagnosing and treating these conditions. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), as of 2023, more than 1 in 7 U.S. adults—about 35.5 million people—are estimated to have chronic kidney disease (CKD). Additionally, the American Cancer Society projects around 313,780 new cases and 35,770 deaths from prostate cancer in 2025. The increasing procedural volume, combined with infection control benefits and the ease of use of disposable urology endoscopes, drives their dominant market share.
The hospitals segment accounted for the largest share in 2024
By end user, the disposable endoscopes market is segmented into hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, clinics, and other end users such as diagnostic centers, mobile endoscopy facilities, and office-based endoscopy service providers. Among these, the hospital segment held the largest market share in 2024 due to the high volume of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures performed within hospital settings. Hospitals serve as primary centers for advanced and complex endoscopic interventions across specialties like gastroenterology, urology, and pulmonology. The availability of skilled healthcare professionals, advanced infrastructure, and robust infection control protocols supports the adoption of disposable endoscopes to reduce cross-contamination risks. Additionally, hospitals increasingly prefer single-use endoscopes to avoid the costs and operational challenges of cleaning and reprocessing reusable scopes. The growing patient influx, rising chronic disease burden, and increased awareness of infection prevention further reinforce hospitals’ dominant role in driving disposable endoscope use globally.
North America dominated the global Disposable endoscopes market in 2024
The disposable endoscopes market is divided into five main regional segments: North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa. In 2024, North America held the largest share of the global disposable endoscopes market. The region's growth is driven by the high prevalence of chronic diseases, an aging population, and rising procedural volumes across various specialties. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the population aged 65 and older increased by 3.1% from 2023 to 2024, boosting demand for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported that over 35.5 million U.S. adults have chronic kidney disease, while the American Cancer Society projects 2,041,910 new cancer cases in 2025, including 313,780 prostate cancer cases. Additionally, more than one million cystoscopy procedures are performed annually in the U.S. The presence of major companies like Ambu A/S and Boston Scientific, along with FDA initiatives promoting infection prevention through single-use endoscopes, further reinforces North America’s market leadership.
