The report states that Whites and African Americans are most affected by prostate cancer, with factors such as heredity, old age, obesity, high inclusion of red meat in diet, infection of the prostate gland, and smoking identified as causes of prostate cancer. Prostate cancer is categorized into four stages depending upon its severity: stage I, stage II, stage III, and stage IV. The diagnosis of prostate cancer includes a number of methods such as lymph node biopsy, CT scan and MRI, bone scan, PET and SPECT scans, prostate biopsy, digital rectal exam (DRE), prostascint monoclonal antibody scan, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) blood test, and ultrasound. By technique, the prostate cancer minimally invasive surgery market is divided into robotic surgery, brachytherapy, cryosurgery, and laparoscopic surgery. Robotic surgery has revolutionized the prostate cancer treatment scenario and this segment led the overall market, being identified as the most significant innovation of the decade in the field. The adoption of surgical robots in minimally invasive surgeries has increased in Europe and North America owing to the many advantages they present. Surgical robots enable increased control during surgical procedures, speedier recovery time and therefore shorter hospital stay, dexterity to surgeons, and reduce the risk of side effects of prostate cancer surgery such as impotency. The one factor that hinders the growth of this segment is its high cost. Today, the price of a surgical robot is nearly US$1.5 million.
