Additionally, key market players are accelerating growth through strategic acquisitions, partnerships, and R&D investments to develop advanced IVUS technologies, such as high-resolution imaging, 3D IVUS, and AI-driven analysis.
What are the latest intravascular ultrasound market dynamics and trends?
The global market for intravascular ultrasound has witnessed significant growth in recent years, largely driven by the rising prevalence of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and associated risk factors, the expanding use of Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS) due to the surge in percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI), and increase in product development activities among the key market players.
According to the World Heart Federation (2024), approximately 60 million population was affected by atrial fibrillation which is one of the most common types of irregular heartbeat, or arrhythmia. It can increase the risk of blood clots, heart failure and stroke. Additionally, as per the same source people with atrial fibrillation were 5X times more likely to suffer a stroke.
Atrial fibrillation, the most common cardiac arrhythmia, is associated with a heightened risk of thromboembolic events, stroke, and structural heart complications. As AF management increasingly involves catheter-based interventions such as pulmonary vein isolation (PVI), left atrial appendage (LAA) closure, and atrial fibrillation ablation, IVUS plays a critical role in guiding these procedures by providing real-time, high-resolution imaging of vascular structures and thereby boosting the overall IUVS market.
According to a recent data provided by British Heart Foundation (2024), globally, around 56 million women and 45 million men were stroke survivors. It's estimated that at least 13 million people worldwide lived with congenital heart disease, with potentially millions more undiagnosed. Congenital heart disease patients who undergo surgical corrections often need long-term monitoring and intervention, where IVUS serves as a minimally invasive diagnostic tool to assess graft patency, evaluate vascular remodeling, and detect post-surgical complications.
Additionally, according to the data provided by the University of Michigan (2024), more than 500,000 Americans undergo percutaneous coronary intervention, or PCI, a minimally invasive procedure to unclog the arteries that feed the heart.
As PCI becomes the primary treatment for CAD, interventional cardiologists increasingly rely on IVUS for enhanced procedural outcomes. Unlike traditional angiography, IVUS provides real-time, high-resolution cross-sectional imaging, enabling precise vessel assessment, plaque analysis, and optimal stent placement. This has driven higher IVUS adoption, improving PCI success rates and reducing complications, thereby boosting its market demand.
Thus, the growth of IUVS is closely linked to the annual volume of PCI procedures and the increasing integration of IVUS in both pre-stenting and post-stenting applications. For example, Boston Scientific offers the OPTICROSS(TM) HD Coronary Imaging Catheters, which provide high-definition imaging to assist in accurate stent placement and assessment of procedural results. Additionally, their AVVIGO(TM)+ Multi-Modality Guidance System integrates IVUS and Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) capabilities, enhancing vessel imaging and physiological assessments during PCI.
Furthermore, the increase in product development activites are further boosting the overall market of IVUS. For instance, in March 2025, Boston Scientific Corporation announced it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire SoniVie Ltd., a privately held medical device company that has developed the TIVUS(TM) Intravascular Ultrasound System.
Thus, the factors mentioned above are expected to boost the overall market of intravascular ultrasound during the forecast period from 202 to 2034.
However, IVUS catheter can sometimes cause mechanical trauma to the arterial wall during insertion, manipulation, or withdrawal lading to vessel dissection and presence of alternatives such as optical coherence tomography (OCT) and advanced angiography may limit the future market of IVUS during the forecast period.
