Echogenic catheters or ultrasound catheters are majorly used for various non-imaging applications, many of them are new and are in different stages of development.
Major applications of echogenic catheters include ultrasound-guided continuous peripheral nerve blocks, ultrasound guided embryo transfer, intravascular ultrasound, intracardiac echocardiography, etc.
Although applications are different, the basic mechanism used in echogenic catheters is common in all types of echogenic catheters, which involve ultrasonic markers incorporated either into catheter material or at the tip of the catheters. Echogenic catheters have a miniature marker transducer mounted at the tip or some other place of interest.
Echogenic catheters are connected to a passive type transponders and are able to generate visible localization mark on echography screen. Initially when first launched, echogenic catheters were restricted for use in cardiac applications and were used to guide the placement of pacing lead tip in the heart.
Echogenic catheters are now replacing traditional technology of X-ray fluoroscopy, as it does not clearly visualize soft tissue and also have risks of exposure to ionizing radiations.
The first echogenic catheter was launched in 2008 by MedSystems, which was acquired by St. Jude Medical later in the same year. The global market for echogenic catheters has seen many changes in technology since then.

Echogenic Catheters Market: Drivers and Restraints
Primary factors driving echogenic catheters market include growing need for safe and effective guiding technology during surgical and minimally invasive procedures and safety of the technique compared to other alternatives.
Besides, need for accurate procedures to diagnose cardiovascular diseases especially arrhythmias and structural heart disease is attributed to growth in demand for echogenic catheters across all end users.
Choice to ultrasound guided minimally invasive procedures in geriatric patients is another factor driving growth of the global echogenic catheters market.
Increasing incidence of post-traumatic pain or stress is leading to growing adoption of continuous peripheral nerve block (CPNB), and thus demands the increased use of echogenic catheters to place CPNB.
However, unawareness towards the procedure in some developing countries is the factor limiting the growth of the global echogenic catheters market.
