Osteoarthritis Market and Forecast Analysis to 2030

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a condition characterized by focal areas of loss of articular cartilage within the synovial joints, associated with hypertrophy of the bone (osteophytes and subchondral bone sclerosis) and thickening of the capsule (Pereira et al., 2011). OA can be subclassified as either primary or secondary (Michael et al., 2010; Allen and Nelson, 2013).
