Analysis of the current status of the medical laser market

Since the birth of laser, laser technology has become an effective means of clinical treatment, and has gradually developed into a key technology for medical diagnosis, and has solved many problems in medicine and contributed to the development of medicine. At present, laser medical treatment has formed a mature and stable market, and has maintained a strong and strong development momentum in its basic research, new technology development, new equipment development and production.

The international laser industry market in the world is divided into the United States, Europe, Japan and the Pacific by region. Market share in the United States is about 55%, Europe is about 22%, and Japan and the Pacific are about 23%. High-power lasers for material processing above 500 watts are dominant in Germany, while low-power semiconductor lasers are dominant in Japan, accounting for more than 70% of the world market.

In the field of laser medical devices, the United States, Europe, Israel and Japan are currently in the world's leading position. Especially in the United States, its laser medical equipment is not only widely used, but also exported to overseas markets, bringing considerable sales revenue to the United States every year. According to related reports, the total sales of global civilian laser products in 2005 was approximately 58.6 billion US dollars, of which medical laser equipment products accounted for about 1/10 (more than 5 billion US dollars). And maintain a strong rise with a double-digit growth rate. Taking lasers as an example in the dental field, it is reported that at least 80% of the 200,000 dentists in the United States often use CO2 laser equipment, so the market for dental lasers is very broad, with a potential market of more than one billion dollars.

At present, the laser medical market is mainly distributed in the following aspects: photodynamic therapy for cancer; laser treatment for cardiovascular disease; excimer laser keratoplasty; laser fiber endoscopic surgery; laser laparoscopic surgery; laser thoracoscopic surgery; Laser lithotripsy; laser surgery; laser application in anastomosis; laser in oral, maxillofacial surgery and dentistry; weak laser therapy. In 2005, the national laser market sales exceeded 30 billion yuan, of which medical laser sales were about 700-800 million yuan.

In the production of laser medical equipment. Since the early 1990s, the pace of development has been extremely rapid. According to relevant reports, domestic laser medical equipment sales in domestic lasers as high as 20% to 30%. Its production areas are mainly distributed in Guangdong, Hubei, Beijing, Jiangsu and Shanghai. Among them, “Wuhan China Guangu”, which is led by optical communication and laser industries, has more than 300 optoelectronics companies, showing a strong development momentum in medical laser production. Beijing, Shanghai and Wuhan have promoted the introduction and development of medical laser technology with its special geographical position. In recent years, hospitals in Guangdong Province and large beauty chain hospitals have seen a significant increase in demand for laser equipment, which has led to rapid growth in their medical laser companies. However, in the case of medical laser companies, the medical laser industry is still developing. In addition, Xi'an in Shaanxi and Chengdu in Sichuan, with the industrialization of scientific research institutes, many laser companies have emerged. As the old industrial base of optics in China, although there are some enterprises engaged in the research and development and production of the laser medical industry, many enterprises have not yet formed a large scale due to regional problems. Wuhan has the largest laser manufacturer in China, Chutian Laser Group. In addition to producing industrial laser welding machines, the company also produces dozens of laser beauty and laser medical products . It has become one of the largest medical laser equipment production bases in China (also in Asia).

At present, laser medical centers and related departments have been established in all three major hospitals across the country. 50% of small and medium-sized hospitals have also set up laser medical departments. Large-scale beauty chain stores have weakened laser technology, and domestic market for laser medical equipment. Demand has increased significantly. It is expected that sales of domestic medical lasers are expected to increase significantly in the next few years.
