DUBLIN, Apr. 11, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Surgical Navigation Software Market 2017-2021" report to their offering.

The global surgical navigation software market to grow at a CAGR of 7.06% during the period 2017-2021.

The report, Global Surgical Navigation Software Market 2017-2021, has been prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with inputs from industry experts. The report covers the market landscape and its growth prospects over the coming years. The report also includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market.

One trend in market is shift from frame-based stereotaxy to frameless stereotaxy navigation for neurosurgery. Frameless stereotaxy is a navigational technology that provides real-time information to neurosurgeons about the location and trajectory of lesion. This technology provides the surgeon with navigational information such as matching the location of surgical instruments in the operation to the preoperative imaging data.

The matching of the information minimizes the extent of invasiveness by more accurately selecting the best trajectory to the lesion, ensures more precise identification of normal structures, and guides the complete removal of the lesion. Traditional stereotactic systems required a rigid frame to be bolted to the patient's skull for image registration. These are being substituted by frameless systems that define the reference space using small, removable fiducial markers or other equivalent devices.

According to the report, one driver in market is fall of the hospital conglomerate. Before 2010, large hospitals developed research machines, while medium-sized hospitals merged to form conglomerates, and smaller hospitals struggled through various economic consequences. Large centers had advanced research infrastructure for capital-intensive surgical procedures. Since 2010, with the emergence of MIS practices, physicians and surgeons are gradually moving to start their own specialty practices and surgical centers by buying small hospitals, getting rid of unprofitable emergency rooms, and focusing on high skill and efficient procedures.
