Rising incidences of symptoms such as cancer and cardiac ailments is expected to foster the demand for ablation procedures. Technological advancements to design high-end products and growing demand for treatment procedures, which are minimally invasive are expected to boost the ablation technologies market. Furthermore, rising count of aging population having higher risk of target diseases is another vital factor driving the demand for ablation procedures. However, measures taken by government to control healthcare cost are along with current healthcare reforms in the U.S. may hamper the growth of the market. Moreover, product recalls by companies will hinder the growth of the market. Rising demand of emerging markets along with increasing funding for design of novel ablation devices create abundant growth opportunities to the market. Stringent regulatory framework leading to an increase in the gestation period for product launches is a key market challenge.
