A biopsy needle is a specialized medical device used to extract tissue samples from the body for diagnostic examination, often under imaging guidance. It is commonly employed to detect cancer, infections, or other abnormalities in organs and tissues. The primary purpose of a biopsy needle is to obtain a minimally invasive, precise sample for histopathological analysis.
The key types of biopsy needles include disposable and non-disposable needles. A disposable biopsy needle is a single-use device designed to collect tissue samples for diagnostic purposes and is discarded after one procedure to prevent cross-contamination. These devices include needle-based biopsy guns, vacuum-assisted biopsy systems, fine needle aspiration biopsy devices, and core needle biopsy instruments, used in both image-guided and non-image-guided procedures. They are applied in diagnosing cancers or tumors of the breast, lung, prostate, colon, stomach, liver, rectum, cervix uteri, and other organs. Key end users include hospitals and surgical centers, diagnostic clinics and pathology laboratories, ambulatory care centers, and research and academic institutes.
Tariffs are impacting the biopsy needle market by increasing costs for imported medical-grade metals and precision components used in needle manufacturing. Segments such as vacuum-assisted and fine needle aspiration devices are particularly impacted, with Asia-Pacific regions including China and India facing higher import duties. This has led to increased production costs and potential delays in device availability. On the positive side, tariffs have encouraged local manufacturing, innovation in reusable and disposable needle designs, and investment in domestic production capabilities.
The biopsy needle market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides biopsy needle market statistics, including biopsy needle industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a biopsy needle market share, detailed biopsy needle market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the biopsy needle industry. This biopsy needle market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The biopsy needle market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.41 billion in 2025 to $1.52 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to reliance on traditional core needle biopsy methods, limited availability of vacuum-assisted biopsy devices, growing prevalence of cancer cases, increasing hospital and surgical center infrastructure, rising awareness of early diagnostic procedures.
The biopsy needle market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.06 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to technological advancements in image-guided and vacuum-assisted devices, development of innovative disposable needle designs, expansion of diagnostic clinics and pathology laboratories, rising investment in research and academic institutes, integration of ai and digital tools for precision diagnostics. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of image-guided biopsy procedures, rising preference for disposable biopsy needles, growth in minimally invasive diagnostic techniques, expansion of cancer and tumor screening programs, enhanced focus on patient safety and sterility standards.
The increasing demand for minimally invasive procedures is expected to propel the growth of the biopsy needle market going forward. Minimally invasive procedures involve medical interventions performed through small incisions or openings, reducing patient trauma and shortening recovery times. The demand for these procedures is rising due to their advantages, including faster recovery, lower risk of complications, reduced pain, and minimal scarring, making them more appealing to patients seeking safer and quicker treatment options. Biopsy needles support minimally invasive procedures by enabling precise tissue sampling, reducing the need for extensive surgical intervention, and facilitating faster diagnoses. For instance, in November 2024, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, a US-based non-profit organization, the total number of cosmetic minimally invasive procedures reached 25,442,640 in 2023, marking a 7% increase from 23,672,269 in 2022. Therefore, the increasing demand for minimally invasive procedures is driving the growth of the biopsy needle market.
Companies operating in the biopsy needle market are focusing on developing technologically advanced products, such as semi-automatic core biopsy instruments, to improve precision and ease of tissue sampling in minimally invasive procedures. Semi-automatic core biopsy instruments are medical devices that use a spring-loaded mechanism to quickly and accurately collect tissue samples with minimal manual effort. For instance, in May 2023, Argon Medical Devices Inc., a US-based medical device manufacturer, launched the SuperCore Advantage semi-automatic biopsy instrument. This disposable core biopsy needle provides consistent, high-quality tissue samples for accurate diagnosis. It features an ergonomic design, a sharp cutting edge for clean specimen retrieval, and an adjustable throw length to accommodate different lesion depths. The device enhances biopsy precision while minimizing patient discomfort, offering improved diagnostic capabilities.
In October 2023, Halma plc, a UK-based global life-saving technology company, completed the acquisition of AprioMed for an undisclosed sum. Through this acquisition, Halma seeks to strengthen its cancer diagnostic capabilities by incorporating AprioMed's biopsy needle products for minimally invasive procedures. AprioMed AB, a Sweden-based medical device company, develops and manufactures biopsy needles to aid in diagnosing conditions such as cancer, complementing Halma's IZI Medical Products portfolio.
