C-Arms Global Market Report 2026

C-arms, characterized by their distinctive C-shaped design, incorporate radiographic capabilities and are employed for fluoroscopic intraoperative imaging in emergency care, surgical procedures, and orthopedic interventions.

The two main types of C-arms are fixed C-arms and mobile C-arms. Fixed C-arms, large in size, are designed to cater to a broad spectrum of healthcare applications. On the other hand, mobile C-arms are more compact and versatile, suitable for flexible use in different operating rooms within a clinic, catering to various diagnostic imaging and minimally invasive surgical procedures. C-arm detectors, including image intensifiers and flat panel detectors, are applied in diverse medical fields such as cardiology, gastroenterology, neurology, orthopedics, trauma, oncology, and more. C-arms find applications in hospitals, diagnostic centers, specialty clinics, and other healthcare facilities.

Tariffs are impacting the c-arms market by increasing costs of imported x-ray tubes, flat panel detectors, imaging sensors, electronic control units, and mechanical components used in fixed and mobile systems. Hospitals and diagnostic facilities in North America and Europe are most affected due to dependence on imported imaging hardware, while Asia-Pacific faces cost pressure on export-oriented manufacturing. These tariffs are increasing capital equipment prices and delaying replacement cycles. However, they are also encouraging local assembly, regional supplier development, and investments in domestically manufactured imaging components.

The rising incidence of chronic diseases is anticipated to drive growth in the C-arms market. There has been a notable increase in chronic conditions such as heart diseases, cancer, diabetes, obesity, arthritis, Alzheimer's, and epilepsy. C-arms are utilized for fluoroscopic imaging during surgical and orthopedic procedures. According to the World Health Organization, in September 2023, non-communicable diseases (NCDs) caused 41 million deaths globally, representing 74% of all annual deaths. Cardiovascular diseases accounted for 17.9 million deaths, cancer for 9.3 million, chronic respiratory diseases for 4.1 million, and diabetes for 2.0 million. These statistics highlight the significant global burden of chronic diseases, emphasizing the growing demand for effective diagnostic, therapeutic, and preventive solutions across cardiovascular, oncology, respiratory, and metabolic healthcare markets. Consequently, the increasing incidence of chronic diseases is propelling the growth of the C-arms market.

Major companies operating in the C-arms market are concentrating on the development of innovative solutions, such as advanced mobile C-arm imaging systems, to address the growing demand for improved surgical visualization, enhanced workflow efficiency, and greater versatility across different operating environments. Mobile C-arm systems combine real-time X-ray imaging with enhanced maneuverability and digital features, providing increased flexibility and ease of use compared with traditional fixed imaging systems, which are limited in portability and multi-room deployment. For example, in May 2023, Philips, a Netherlands-based medical equipment company, introduced the Zenition 10 mobile C-arm system, the latest addition to its Zenition series. The Zenition 10 is designed to support orthopedics, trauma, and other surgical applications to maximize utilization.
