The risk of radiation exposure from fluoroscopy procedures is likely to restrain market growth. Fluoroscopy procedures are time-consuming, which greatly increases the radiation that patients are exposed to and the risk of hazards such as radiation-induced injuries to the skin and underlying tissues. Long-term side effects of prolonged radiation exposure can also include cancer.

The major players in this market include Siemens AG (Germany), GE Healthcare (US), Koninklijke Philips N.V. (Netherlands), Shimadzu Corporation (Japan), Ziehm Imaging GmbH (Germany), Toshiba Medical Systems Corporation (Japan), Hitachi Ltd. (Japan), Carestream Health, Inc. (US), Hologic, Inc. (US), Lepu Medical Technology Co., Ltd. (China), Agfa-Gevaert Group (Belgium), and Adani Systems Inc. (Belarus)
