Worldwide governments have imposed lockdowns due to the pandemic crisis. All the hospital doors were temporarily closed for non-emergency incidences throughout the lockdown, and all the elective procedures were canceled or postponed. The pandemic brought forth a crisis for many markets due to the restrictions on the production and supply chains of several goods and the impositions on international trade. Populations lost their jobs, and an economic, physical and mental crisis followed soon after its impact. 

The sudden eruption of COVID-19 has negatively impacted the C-Arms market and has decreased capital expenditure in C-arms x-ray systems.

 As a result, a decline of 16.3% was observed in the c-arms in 2020. This market downfall was due to the sudden shift of attention toward covid patients in the healthcare setting, leading to less focus on other departments and diagnostic procedures. Furthermore, due to the shutting down of essential diagnosis and the restrictions on quarantining, the market saw an economic loss. However, by the end of 2020 and the start of 2021, the demand for the imaging systems like C-arms is expected to rise, bouncing back in the post covid era.
