The breast biopsy market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The market size for breast biopsy has witnessed significant growth in the recent past. The predicted escalation is from $1.42 billion in 2024 to $1.53 billion in 2025, maintaining a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 7.6%.
Factors responsible for this growth during the historical phase include a surge in the number of breast cancer cases, an increase in the elderly population, heightened awareness initiatives, a rise in health care spending, and a trend towards outpatient and ambulatory care settings.
The breast biopsy market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• In the coming years, the breast biopsy market size is projected to experience robust growth. The market is forecast to expand to $2.03 billion in 2029, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.3%.
This predicted growth during the forecast period can be attributed to factors such as infrastructural advancements in the healthcare sector, the rise of personalized medicine, increased healthcare accessibility in emerging regions, supportive regulatory policies and reimbursements, and the emergence of telemedicine and remote diagnostics. Key trends expected during this period include the application of robotics in biopsy procedures, an increase in home-based biopsy kits, the growing significance of genomic biopsies, a focus on patient-centric care models, ensuring data security through blockchain integration, and an emphasis on post-biopsy monitoring tools.
The escalating occurrence of breast cancer is predicted to stimulate the expansion of the breast biopsy market in the future. A malignant tumor emerging in the breast tissue cells is defined as breast cancer, which has the potential to metastasize to different parts of the body if not addressed promptly. Factors like extended life expectancy, enhanced detection techniques, and increasing consciousness about the malady contribute to the prevalence of this cancer. Breast biopsy, a process of securing tissue samples from dubious areas in the breast to diagnose and ascertain the features of breast cancer, is pivotal in its detection. For instance, statistics from the American Cancer Society, a non-profit U.S. organization, in January 2023, noted that the count of fresh invasive breast cancer incidents in American women amplified from approximately 281,550 in 2021 to 297,790 in 2023. Consequently, the escalating occurrence of breast cancer is propelling the expansion of the breast biopsy market.

Leading organizations in the breast biopsy market are prioritizing the development of innovative solutions such as vacuum-assisted breast biopsy systems, in order to deliver improved care to patients with benign lesions. This type of system is a medical instrument that uses a suction process to extract multiple tissue samples from a potentially problematic breast area via a singular needle insertion. For example, in August 2022, US-based medical device firm, Devicor Medical Products, Inc., introduced the Mammotome Revolve EX Dual Vacuum-Assisted Breast Biopsy System. This new product features a dual vacuum mechanism for superior tissue gathering, providing increased sample volume and enhanced accuracy. The system's ergonomic design comprises a revolving probe for exceptional maneuverability and a single insertion process to reduce patient discomfort. Additionally, this system incorporates real-time imaging integration for meticulous targeting and efficient conducting of biopsy procedures.
