The Discography Market is expected to grow at an approximate CAGR of 8.35% during the forecast period 2022-2030.Discography or discogram, is an interventional diagnostic imaging test that uses X-rays to examine the intervertebral discs of the spines. During the discographic procedures, a special gadolinium and iodine dye is injected into the injured disc which makes the disc visible on a fluoroscope monitor and X-ray film. Increasing prevalence of degenerative disc disease and growing geriatric population are estimated to be the major drivers for market growth during the forecast period. According to a study published in the Asian Spine Journal in 2016, it is estimated that lumbar back pain affects 70% to 85% of the individuals in their life. Further, the study states that the prevalence of back pain increases with age and the recurrence is estimated to be as high as 85%. Moreover, according to the World Health Organization, the world’s geriatric population is expected to reach 2 billion by 2050 from 900 million in 2015. Additionally, about 80% of the total geriatric population is estimated to live in the low and middle income countries. Factors such as increasing per capita healthcare expenditure and rising investments by the key market players in research and development processes will fuel the market growth during the forecast period. However, high procedural cost followed by the complications in the operations, lack of awareness and low per capita healthcare expenditure in the developing countries is projected to restrain the market growth during the forecast period. The cost for discography procedures is estimated to be around USD 1,500, making it an out-of-pocket investment for a majority of the patients.
