Transrectal Ultrasound (TRUS) Market 2024-2032 Analysis: Trends, Competitor Dynamics, and Growth Opportunities

Key Insights

The Transrectal Ultrasound (TRUS) Market size was valued at USD 228.0 USD Million in 2023 and is projected to reach USD 351.99 USD Million by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.4 % during the forecast period. Transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) is a type of medical imaging using sound waves, generated from a probe, that is placed into the rectum. The main use is for imaging, making prostate cancer diagnosis easier, and BPH. TRUS encompasses two main types: this may include the use of conventional transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) and three-dimensional (3D) TRUS. The TRUS (Transrectal Ultrasound) gives 2D images foregoing the real-time appearance of the prostate and its surrounding areas. Contrary to, conventional 2D TRUS producing flat images, the 3D version of TRUS improves the diagnostic performance. Modern MRIs reach far beyond general diagnosis, but extend their presence in guiding prostate biopsies treatment planning and monitoring as well. TRUS is non-invasive, low cost, and commonly employed in urology, which thus can make a great impact on therapy for different patients and decision-making about models.
