Single-Use Duodenoscope Global Market Report 2026

A single-use duodenoscope is a sterile, disposable endoscopic device used for procedures in the duodenum, eliminating the need for post-use cleaning and reprocessing. It is primarily used in endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) to diagnose and treat conditions affecting the bile ducts and pancreas. Its main purpose is to reduce infection risk and cross-contamination associated with reusable scopes while ensuring consistent performance and patient safety.

The primary product types of single-use duodenoscope include standard duodenoscope, specialized duodenoscope, and flexible duodenoscope. Standard duodenoscope refers to a disposable endoscopic device intended for visualization and access of the duodenum during diagnostic and therapeutic gastrointestinal interventions. These devices are produced using materials such as polymer, metal, and composite structures. Key applications include endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography diagnosis and therapeutic procedures, while end users comprise hospitals and tertiary care centers, ambulatory surgery centers and outpatient endoscopy facilities, small clinics and rural hospitals, and specialty reference centers.

Tariffs are influencing the single-use duodenoscope market by increasing the cost of imported medical-grade polymers, precision imaging components, and advanced manufacturing equipment used in disposable endoscope production. This is disrupting global supply chains and raising production costs for manufacturers, particularly influencing regions reliant on imports such as North America and Europe, where demand for advanced endoscopic procedures is high. Segments such as specialized duodenoscopes and AI-assisted disposable devices are most influenced due to their dependence on high-precision cross-border components. However, tariffs are also encouraging localization of medical device manufacturing, strengthening domestic supply chains, and accelerating investments in regional production facilities, which enhances long-term supply resilience and reduces dependency on imports.

The single-use duodenoscope market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides single-use duodenoscope market statistics, including single-use duodenoscope industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a single-use duodenoscope market share, detailed single-use duodenoscope market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the single-use duodenoscope industry. This single-use duodenoscope 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 single-use duodenoscope market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $0.59 billion in 2025 to $0.68 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.3%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growing incidence of bile duct and pancreatic disorders, rising hospital-acquired infection concerns linked to reusable scopes, expansion of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography procedures, increased adoption of minimally invasive surgical techniques, improvements in hospital endoscopy infrastructure.

The single-use duodenoscope market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.17 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing shift toward single-use medical devices for infection prevention, rising healthcare expenditure and procedural volumes in gastroenterology, technological advancements in disposable endoscope imaging quality, expanding ambulatory surgery centers and outpatient care adoption, stricter global regulatory standards for cross-contamination control. Major trends in the forecast period include rising adoption of single-use duodenoscopes to reduce hospital-acquired infections, increasing preference for sterile disposable endoscopy devices in ercp procedures, growth in demand for high-precision minimally invasive gastrointestinal diagnostics, expansion of outpatient and ambulatory endoscopy services, rising regulatory pressure for infection control in reusable endoscope alternatives.

The rising prevalence of healthcare-acquired infections is expected to drive the growth of the single-use duodenoscope market going forward. Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) refer to infections that patients develop during the course of receiving treatment in a healthcare facility, which were not present at the time of admission. Healthcare-associated infections are increasing primarily due to the growing use of invasive medical devices, which can introduce infections into the body if not properly sterilized or handled. Single-use duodenoscopes help reduce healthcare-associated infections by removing the need for reprocessing and sterilization between patients, thereby eliminating the risk of cross-contamination from inadequately disinfected reusable scopes. For instance, in September 2024, according to the UK Health Security Agency, a UK-based government agency, in the fiscal year 2022-2023, the total number of hospital-onset healthcare-associated (HOHA) E. coli infections rose from 6,525 to 7,881 cases. Therefore, the rising prevalence of healthcare-acquired infections is driving the growth of the single-use duodenoscope market.

The increasing burden of gastrointestinal disorders is expected to drive the growth of the single-use duodenoscope market going forward. Gastrointestinal disorders are conditions that affect the digestive system, disrupting normal digestion, nutrient absorption, and bowel function. Gastrointestinal disorders are rising mainly due to unhealthy diets high in processed and low-fiber foods, which impair digestion and gut health. Single-use duodenoscopes assist in gastrointestinal disorders by enabling accurate diagnosis and treatment of bile and pancreatic duct conditions while reducing infection risks associated with reusable devices. For instance, in December 2023, according to the IBD Registry, a UK-based nonprofit organization, by 2023, the number of individuals with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) exceeded 5,300, representing an increase of more than 3,000 members compared to the previous year (2022). Therefore, the increasing burden of gastrointestinal disorders is driving the growth of the single-use duodenoscope market.

Leading operating in the single-use duodenoscope market are focusing on developing innovative solutions, such as new-generation duodenoscopy systems, to enhance patient safety by eliminating cross-contamination risks, reducing healthcare-associated infections, and improving procedural efficiency in endoscopic procedures. A new-generation duodenoscopy system is an advanced endoscopy technology designed to improve visualization, safety, and infection control during duodenal procedures, often incorporating single-use or enhanced reprocessing features. For example, in April 2024, Ambu A/S, a Denmark-based medical technology company, received a 510(k) clearance from the US FDA for its new-generation duodenoscopy solution, the aScope Duodeno 2 and aBox 2, designed specifically for endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) procedures. This sterile, single-use system addresses key challenges in ERCP, including high-performance needs and the burdens of complex reprocessing for reusable duodenoscopes.
