Electroencephalography Equipment Market Outlook - 2026
The electroencephalography equipment market size accounted for $1,403 million in 2018, and is expected to reach $1,999 million by 2026, registering a CAGR of 4.5% from 2019 to 2026.
Electroencephalography equipment is used to monitor the electrical signals of the brain. However, these electrical signals are very weak and thus, an amplifier is employed to magnify the voltage. The readings from an EEG device are used to diagnose various neurological disorders and monitor sleep disorders and patients under anesthesia. The equipment works with the help of electrodes that are attached to the scalp of the patient to collect the reading of the brain wave. EEG equipment are mostly used in hospitals, diagnostic laboratories, ambulatory surgery centers, and others.
The major factors that drive the electroencephalography equipment market growth are surge in geriatric population, and increase in adoption of EEG equipment in surgery centers. Furthermore, rise in prevalence of neurological disorders such as epilepsy and Alzheimer’s disease, also boost the growth of the electroencephalography equipment market. In addition, technological advancements in the field of EEG equipment is another factor that contributes to the growth of the global EEG equipment market. However, presence of substitute products hinders the growth of the market. Conversely, growth potential in developing nation is expected to serve as a lucrative opportunity for the global EEG equipment market during the forecast period.

Analyst Review
Electroencephalogram (EEG) is a diagnostic test that is employed for monitoring the electrical activity of the brain. This involves the tracking and recording of patterns of the brain functions which are then analyzed to diagnose different neurological conditions such as epilepsy, Alzheimer’s disease, and others. In addition, this test is also used to monitor head injuries, epilepsy, dizziness, headaches, brain tumors, and sleep disorders.
Factors responsible for driving the growth of the electroencephalography equipment market are rise in prevalence of neurological disorders that require brain monitoring. In addition, rise in adoption of EEG equipment across the globe is the prime growth factor for the growth of the global electroencephalography equipment market. However, high availability of other alternative brain monitoring devices restricts the growth of the market.
North America garnered the largest share of this market due to rise in research activities related to drug development, easy availability of EEG equipment, and surge in adoption of these devices in surgical centers of this region.
