Medical endoscopy has a history of more than 200 years. Affected by the level of science and technology, the global promotion and popularization of minimally invasive surgery technology in recent years has promoted the development of minimally invasive medical devices. Endoscope minimally invasive medical devices are among the most Representative.

Introduction to Endoscope Industry

Endoscope is a device that integrates optics, electronics, structure, materials and other multidisciplinary technologies, and has extremely high technical barriers. The endoscope is mainly composed of three major systems, namely the endoscope system, the image display system, and the illumination system. Corresponding core technologies are three major technologies: image acquisition, image post-processing and lighting methods.

Endoscopes can be simply divided into rigid endoscopes and flexible endoscopes. According to the development history and imaging structure classification, endoscopes have experienced rigid tube endoscopes, semi-flexible endoscopes, and fiber endoscopes. And four stages of electronic endoscopes. The image quality of electronic endoscopes is higher and has gradually become the mainstream of the market. The rapid development of flexible endoscope diagnosis and treatment technology has also promoted its products to many departments such as gastroenterology, respiratory medicine, otolaryngology, urology, anorectal surgery, thoracic surgery, and gynecology, ranging from simple disease screening to complex The treatment of achalasia brings the benefits of timely and accurate diagnosis and treatment, low risk, less surgical trauma, and quicker recovery after surgery. However, due to factors such as economic development and popularization of knowledge, the current development rate of flexible endoscopes is low .

The field of flexible endoscopes has extremely high barriers and high market concentration. The global market is basically divided by Japanese companies such as Olympus, Pentax, and Fuji, which together account for more than 90% of the market share. Among them, Olympus occupies 65% of the market share with its outstanding product performance and strong innovative genes. Other companies that produce medical endoscopes include Karl Storz, Stryker, and German Wolf Brand.

In recent years, with the continuous advancement of technology, domestic soft mirrors have gradually achieved technological breakthroughs with domestic companies represented by Kaili Medical and Aohua. It is worth pointing out that Kaili Medical and Shanghai Aohua have successively launched HD550, AQ200 and other high-definition endoscopes. The gap between products, product performance and foreign investment has gradually narrowed, and good feedback has been obtained from the hospital. It fills the gap of domestic high-definition endoscopes; it is expected to further accelerate the development of domestic high-end endoscope products.

The hard lens market is mainly occupied by Japanese and German companies due to its high core optical technology. Companies in the hard mirror market include Carl Storz, Olympus, Stryker, Wolf Brand, etc., and several companies together account for more than 90% of the market share. At present, Olympus has launched 4K ultra-clear laparoscopy and 3D video laparoscopy, and has a good market response.

The domestic hard mirror manufacturers mainly include Shenyang Shenda, Zhejiang Tiansong, Hangzhou Haoke Optoelectronics, etc., but the entire domestic enterprises currently account for less than 10% of the market share, and the products are in the low-end market and the prices are low; product performance is also There is a big gap with imported products. At present, Mindray Medical has launched a high-definition 1080P laparoscope, but the core optics and image processing still rely on foreign technology.

Domestic endoscope market size

The scale of my country's domestic speculum market exceeded 20 billion yuan in 2018. Foreign brands have been recognized by consumers earlier in my country by virtue of their mature technology and complete marketing management system.

Technical development of endoscope

With the continuous upgrading of technology and the continuous improvement of the medical system, the global demand for endoscopes will further expand in the future, especially in developing countries such as China and India. For example, in China, the aging population is accelerating and the demand for medical examinations is increasing, which will continue to promote the development of medical endoscopes.

1. High resolution and miniaturization. Electronic endoscopes are flexible tube endoscopes, which have the advantages of high resolution and high definition. Compared with rigid tube endoscopes, it has great advantages in diagnosis of upper and lower digestive tract and other parts, and has broad development and application space. Miniaturization is also an important direction for future medical endoscope technology development.

2. Intelligent. In the future, medical endoscope technology will gradually merge with other technologies to develop a computer-aided semi-automatic diagnosis system, thereby reducing the dependence of diagnosis on the doctor's experience and improving the accuracy of diagnosis.
