"Designing Growth Strategies is in our DNA"
Neuronavigation refers to the set of computer-assisted technologies used by neurosurgeons for the guiding or navigation within the confines of the skull or vertebral column during surgery and transcranial magnetic stimulation. Neuronavigation systems have become a standard procedure for neurosurgery and associated specialties due to improved accuracy, safety and efficiency. Neuronavigation systems are extensively used in the operative management of brain tumors and offering numerous clinical advantages to the surgeon.
Certain other functionalities of the neuronavigation systems include precise planning of the incision & craniotomy and determination of small subcortical lesions. According to the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), in 2017, an approximate of 23,880 individuals (13,720 males and 10,160 females) in the U.S. were diagnosed with primary cancerous tumors of the brain and spinal cord. In 2013, two key neuronavigation systems market players Brainlab and DePuy Synthes launched navigation-ready instrumentation for neurology procedures.

One of the key neuronavigation systems market growth drivers of the global neuronavigation systems is the growing incidence of neurological disorders such as cancer, benign tumors, and stroke. Introduction of new and innovative neuronavigation systems by market players is also fueling the demand and adoption of these systems in the global market.
However, clinical complications related to neuronavigation systems, combined with the high cost of acquisition and maintenance of these systems, are some of the major factors restraining the growth of the global neuronavigation systems in 2018.
Some of the major companies that are present in the neuronavigation systems market are Northern Digital Inc., ClaroNav, Medtronic, Stryker, BrainLAB AG, Synaptive Medical, and Parsis Co. and other players.
