United Kingdom Mammography Market Trends

The factors responsible for the growth of this segment include the high prevalence of breast cancer disorders and strategic initiatives undertaken by many hospitals. The presence of many hospitals in the country is expected to boost the market growth. According to the most recent data released by the International Agency for Research on Cancer's GLOBOCAN 2020 report, there were an expected 53,889 new cancer cases diagnosed in the United Kingdom (UK) in 2020, which helps to explain the high burden of breast cancer. Additionally, it noted that 11,839 cancer fatalities were reported in the UK during the same time period. The high cancer burden is anticipated to increase the number of persons requesting mammography services at hospitals because breast cancer can be screened there. This should accelerate market growth during the course of the forecast. There have been numerous developments in the UK, including the introduction of mammography products at hospitals. For instance, in August 2019, Siemens Inspiration, a revolutionary mammography device, was introduced at George Eliot Hospital. The hospital conducts more than 11,000 mammograms annually, according to hospital officials, and was planning to increase community access by introducing new mammography equipment. Therefore, it is anticipated that initiatives like these will accelerate market expansion. Hence, the above factors and launches are further expected to improve the market growth in this segment.
