Description

Flexible endoscopes are extensively utilized in various medical fields, including gastroenterology, pulmonology, and urology, as hospitals and clinics increasingly prefer minimally invasive procedures for their effectiveness and enhanced patient comfort. The market is bolstered by Japan's aging demographic, high volumes of procedures, and ongoing advancements in imaging and device technology.

Japan is actively enhancing its endoscopic capabilities through clinical advancements and improved infrastructure. As reported by the Japan Society for Endoscopic Surgery, in January 2025, over 290,000 patients underwent endoscopic surgeries in 2021 across various specialties, such as abdominal, thoracic, and gynecological procedures. Despite the challenges posed by COVID-19, the adoption of robot-assisted and minimally invasive techniques has continued to rise, demonstrating the nation's dedication to providing safe and advanced surgical care. Furthermore, Japan is incorporating artificial intelligence into endoscopic diagnostics. According to the JMA Journal in January 2025, AI-driven tools like EndoBRAIN-EYE have gained regulatory approval and reimbursement, facilitating real-time polyp detection during colonoscopies. These innovations are part of Japan's strategy to excel in AI-assisted medical technologies and enhance diagnostic precision in clinical environments.

The market for flexible endoscopes in Japan is set for ongoing growth, fueled by clinical excellence, technological innovation, and supportive government initiatives. As hospitals implement AI-integrated systems and broaden their minimally invasive service offerings, the market presents significant opportunities for innovation and international collaboration.
