The ASC market is booming across Europe with cases increasingly transitioning to the outpatient arena, a Transparency Market Research report found.
Here are four highlights:
1. The market is likely to hit $42.8 billion by 2020.
2. Throughout Europe, there is a high demand for ophthalmology procedures as more people suffer from cataract, diabetic retinopathy and other eye-related diseases. The report authors expect this segment to continue dominating through 2020 and will turn a substantial profit.
3. In 2013, the United Kingdom led the market.
4. Regions such as the Netherlands, Sweden and Denmark are likely to fare well in the market as they perform more procedures in ASCs.
