How we evaluated and analyzed
The 20 players of the global surgical robotics market were screened on the basis of the revenue, global presence, product capability and differentiation, clinical applications, and inorganic and organic growth strategies. The product portfolio, clinical application, and technology adoption were mapped for all enlisted companies. The seven potential technologies were chosen on the basis of their commercial viability, and adoption by both the manufacturers and end-users. Quantitative and qualitative data for each technology was gathered from secondary sources like annual reports, product brochures, investors presentations, white papers, and research articles, among others. Besides taking into account the qualitative data, the technology trend analysis also considered the information regarding the number of installations of the surgical robots, and the number of surgeries performed. Thus, both qualitative and quantitative data was used to draw a conclusive and insightful analysis pertaining to the technology trends in the global surgical robotics market.
