Endobronchial Ultrasound Biopsy Market Growth & Trends
The global endobronchial ultrasound biopsy market size is expected to reach USD 1186.5 million by 2033, registering a CAGR of 6.30% from 2025 to 2033, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. This growth can be attributed to the increasing incidence of cancer, advancements in Endobronchial Ultrasound (EBUS) technology, a rising elderly population, a higher occurrence of respiratory diseases, and the growing acceptance of minimally invasive procedures. For instance, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that there will be more than 35 million new cancer cases in 2050, representing a 77% rise from the estimated 20 million cases recorded in 2022.
The endobronchial ultrasound biopsy market is also driven by advancements in medical technology and the increasing prevalence of respiratory diseases. EBUS devices are primarily used for diagnosing lung cancer, tuberculosis, and other respiratory disorders, offering a minimally invasive alternative to traditional surgical biopsies. Technological innovations such as high-resolution imaging, AI-assisted navigation, and improved probe designs have further enhanced the precision and efficiency of EBUS procedures. In addition, the shift toward personalized medicine and early detection strategies in oncology has enhanced demand for these devices, as they support targeted diagnostic interventions that improve patient outcomes.
Moreover, the market's growth is also fueled by demographic trends such as the growing geriatric population, which is more vulnerable to respiratory conditions such as COPD and asthma. For instance, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, around 57.88% of the country’s population was aged 65 years and above in 2023, accounting for 17.5% of the total population. This geriatric population share is further expected to increase over the forecast period. Furthermore, emerging economies are also witnessing market growth due to their large patient pools affected by air pollution-related respiratory disorders. For instance, countries such as China and India have seen increased adoption of EBUS devices due to high rates of lung cancer linked to poor air quality. Moreover, cost-effectiveness compared to invasive alternatives such as mediastinoscopy has made EBUS attractive for healthcare providers.

Endobronchial Ultrasound Biopsy Market Report Highlights
The EBUS scopes segment dominated the market in 2024 with the largest revenue share of 33.0%, owing to the demand for minimally invasive lung cancer and mediastinal lymphadenopathy diagnostic procedures
The EBUS-Transbronchial Needle Aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) segment captured the largest revenue share of 61.1% in 2024. Clinicians and healthcare providers have shifted toward EBUS-TBNA due to its higher diagnostic yield, reduced patient discomfort, and lower complication rates compared to conventional mediastinoscopy
The hospitals segment accounted for the largest revenue share of 42.2% in 2024. Hospitals prioritize EBUS technology due to its high diagnostic accuracy and reduced patient risk compared to traditional biopsy methods.
The ambulatory surgical centers segment is expected to grow fastest over the forecast period. Ambulatory surgical centers offer a lower-cost alternative to hospitals while maintaining high procedural efficiency, making them an attractive option for patients and payers.
North America dominated the endobronchial ultrasound biopsy market in 2024 and accounted for a revenue share of 29.18%, owing to the increasing prevalence of respiratory diseases, such as lung cancer, and the rising demand for minimally invasive diagnostic techniques.
