Lymphedema Diagnostics Market Trends

• Growing cases of chronic diseases are driving the market growth

Market CAGR for lymphedema diagnostics is being driven by the rising cases of chronic diseases. The rising incidents of chronic diseases like cancer and lymphedema, with the increasing emphasis on quality of healthcare, are the main factors leading to the growth of the lymphedema diagnostics market during the forecast period. The rise in investment and the innovation of new models of diagnosis and a growing number of emerging countries are also boosting the market. There is increasing advancement in technology in diagnostic imaging modalities and investment.

Lymphedema is a long-lasting condition in which extra fluid gets collected in the tissues leading to swelling. The main reason for lymphedema is the genetic mutations in genes that are the reason for the development of the lymphatic system. Secondly, the causes like cancer, infection, radiation therapy, and inflammatory conditions lead to lymphedema. It is also known as lymphatic obstruction, which mainly affects arms and legs, and some patients even witness swelling in the head, chest, and genitals also. At present, the foundation of the majority of lymphedema risk models is comprised of cancer and treatment risk. The technological advancement offers improved diagnostic solutions; for instance, Bioimpedance Spectroscopy (BIS) is scalable and simple to integrate into the workflows, which is the tracking and addressing lymphedema future. BIS helps in detecting at the earliest stage to permit therapies that can largely enhance the enhancement to avoid cancer-related lymphedema for at-risk individuals. A large amount of investment, grants, and funds by the public-private organization and the government are anticipated to generate profitable opportunities for the market. Thus, driving the Lymphedema Diagnostics market revenue.

There are different factors affecting the growth of the market, like the limited supply of helium and the rising adoption of refurbished diagnostic imaging systems. Further, the high expenses related to diagnostic equipment and the absence of adequate reimbursements are affecting the growth of the market. For instance, women have high expenses related to breast cancer and lymphedema. The main setback of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is the high-cost equipment and high level of technical expertise required to utilize the tools and the results are interpreted. The absence of suitable, clinically authorized lymphatic-specific MRI tracers limits the effectiveness of these imaging methods, thus restricting the market revenue growth.
