The global lithotripsy devices market was valued at USD 1.75 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 3.26 billion by 2034, registering a CAGR of 6.41% from 2025 to 2034. The global lithotripsy devices market growth is attributed to the increasing trend toward minimally invasive procedures.
The lithotripsy devices market deals with devices that help in lithotripsy, which is the non-invasive surgery process that is used to treat kidney stones that are large enough to pass through the urinary tract. It is generally done by passing the sharp ultrasonic energy waves or shock waves directly to the stone that is located previously with ultrasound or fluoroscopy, which further breaks the stone into smaller pieces that can pass through the urinary system.
The increasing geriatric population across the globe is the major factor driving the growth of the lithotripsy devices market. In addition, the increasing prevalence of urolithiasis diseases and increasing levels of investment in the development of advanced technology along with factors including favorable policies of the government related to diagnostic testing such as X-ray and urine microscopy tests are also expected to drive the market growth during the forecast period.
Focus on government innovations, investments create opportunities
The government is focusing on the research and development of the global market by initiating policies and huge investments in developing countries that may create major opportunities for market growth in the coming years. In addition, the increasing product launches such as pneumatic lithotripters, Intracorporeal Lithotripter and Extracorporeal Lithotripter, the commercialization of these technologies and products in various countries are further expected to enhance the growth of the lithotripsy devices market in the coming years.
Higher access and availability access may hamper market growth
The treatment associated with lithotripsy devices can be very expensive. The capital investment necessary for buying lithotripsy equipment is comparatively higher. Furthermore, the maintenance and operation costs are higher. The need for specialized training and skilled healthcare professionals adds to overall costs. Thereby, the higher costs of lithotripsy devices are expected to limit their accessibility, which is further anticipated to restrain the growth of the lithotripsy devices market.
