Medical Robots Market size was valued at USD 16.39 billion in 2024 and is set to exceed USD 110.35 billion by 2037, registering over 15.8% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2025-2037. In the year 2025, the industry size of medical robots is evaluated at USD 18.59 billion.
This can primarily be attributed to the increasing preference for minimally invasive surgeries across the world. Minimally invasive surgeries are associated with smaller incisions, faster recovery time, less pain, and short hospital stay. According to the John Hopkins Medicine organization, the use of minimally invasive surgeries can further reduce post-operative complications and save millions of dollars on the country’s healthcare bill. According to a study, it has been estimated that if all the hospitals in the United States will increase the number of minimally invasive procedures by 50%, they can save up to USD 288 million a year. Besides, a rapidly developing healthcare infrastructure across various regions is also projected to raise the demand for robotics-assisted medical care over the forecast period. In addition to these factors, the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases coupled with high per capita healthcare expenditure is also anticipated to favor the growth of the medical robots market in the upcoming years.

The medical robots market is segmented by robotic systems type into surgical robots, rehabilitation robots, telepresence robots, and others, out of which the surgical robots segment capture the higher share. This can be attributed to the growing demand for surgical robots from the laparoscopy and orthopedic sectors.
Based on application, the market has been segmented into laparoscopy, radiation therapy, orthopedic surgery, neurosurgery, pharmacy, and others, out of which the orthopedic surgery segment is anticipated to grow at a high rate. This can be attributed to the rising application of surgical robots in total knee replacement surgeries. It has been observed that robotic technology in knee replacement surgeries can improve outcomes for patients, which is one of the key factors contributing to the growth of the market segment.
Based on end-user, the market is further divided into hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, rehabilitation centers, and others. Hospitals presently capture a higher share of the market, which is primarily attributed to the increasing investment in enhancing healthcare facilities across hospitals. Further, hospitals experience a high patient influx as compared to others, which is also a key factor accelerating the growth of the market segment.
