Methodology

How the estimates were built: data sources, modelling approach and validation steps.

Research approach

A market size is a claim about the world, and a claim is only as good as the route to it. Every study is built upward from units and prices — what is actually produced, sold or performed, at what it actually changes hands for — rather than from a headline figure divided downwards. Disclosed company revenue is then used to check that build, not to produce it.

Market size estimation, this report

The estimate is built upward from the diagnosed primary aldosteronism patient pool in each country, split by clinical subtype, and the realized cost per patient across pharmacotherapy, confirmatory testing and surgical pathways. Diagnosed volumes are derived from hypertension prevalence data and reported aldosterone-renin ratio screening rates, then converted to revenue using country-level pricing for mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist therapy, adrenal vein sampling procedures and laparoscopic or robotic adrenalectomy. This bottom-up build is then checked against disclosed segment revenue from Pfizer, Sun Pharmaceutical Industries, Bristol Laboratories, CMP Pharma, Koninklijke Philips and GE Healthcare where such figures are reported. Where the two diverge, the bottom-up patient-volume or pricing assumption is revisited and corrected rather than the disclosed revenue being averaged in as a second estimate.

The four stages

The same sequence runs behind every published study, whatever the industry. The order matters as much as the steps: the segment axes are fixed before any number is collected, so the model is never reshaped to fit whatever data happens to turn up.

What the build rests on, and what checks it

The two are not interchangeable. The left column produces the number; the right column tests it. When the check disagrees with the build, the answer is to find which bottom-up assumption is wrong — a unit count, a price, a take-up rate — not to split the difference between them.

The bottom-up build rests on
  • Volume actually transacted — units produced, installed, dispensed or procedures performed, counted at the level each is genuinely recorded
  • Realised pricing by tier and channel, rather than one blended average applied across the whole market
  • Take-up and frequency: how much of the addressable base buys, and how often it repeats
The build is checked against
  • Disclosed revenue of the companies serving the market, where filings separate it far enough to be usable
  • Buyer-side spending totals — capital budgets, procurement lines, or the output of the end market the product is bought against
  • Trade and customs flows, where the product crosses borders in a separately recorded form

Data sources

Published data establishes what happened. Only the people transacting in a market can say why, and what is about to change — so the two are collected separately and weighted differently.

Primary — who is interviewed
  • Commercial and product leadership at the companies that supply the market
  • Procurement and specification leads at the organisations that buy it
  • Distributors, integrators and channel partners, where the market is served indirectly
  • Regulatory and standards specialists, where approval governs what can be sold at all
Secondary — what is read
  • Company filings, annual reports and investor disclosure
  • Government statistics, customs records and regulatory registers
  • Trade association output and standards-body publications
  • Technical and peer-reviewed literature, where the market rests on a clinical or engineering claim
Primary research design, this report

Primary research targets endocrinologists and nephrologists who manage hypertension referrals, hospital procurement and pharmacy directors who set formulary access for mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists, interventional radiologists who perform adrenal vein sampling, and regulatory affairs staff at device and pharmaceutical manufacturers who track approval timelines for newer agents and catheter systems. Commercial leads at diagnostic imaging providers are also included to understand how CT and AVS capacity is allocated between primary aldosteronism workups and other indications. Sampling emphasizes the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, Japan and China, the markets where subtype-confirmed treatment pathways are most established, with supplementary outreach into Brazil and Saudi Arabia to capture how screening and reimbursement are expanding in less mature markets.

Secondary sources, this report

Desk research draws on FDA and EMA product approval and labeling records for mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists and newer nonsteroidal agents, national hypertension treatment guidelines from bodies such as the Endocrine Society and the European Society of Hypertension that set aldosterone-renin ratio screening thresholds, and hospital procedure coding and reimbursement schedules covering adrenal vein sampling and laparoscopic adrenalectomy in the United States, Germany and Japan. Customs and trade classification data under the relevant HS codes for diagnostic catheters and imaging systems supplement device-side volumes, and published financial filings from the named pharmaceutical and device manufacturers anchor the top-down revenue check.

Desk research runs across proprietary research databases including Factiva, OneSource and Hoovers alongside the public sources above. Modelling and statistical validation are run in SAS and SPSS.

Forecasting

The forecast is not a growth rate applied to a base year. It is built from the drivers that are expected to change, each one stated so a reader can disagree with it.

Forecast approach, this report

The forecast carries forward the diagnosed-patient build using country-level hypertension prevalence trends, projected aldosterone-renin ratio screening uptake, and the pace at which primary care referral pathways route confirmed cases into endocrinology care. Pricing assumes gradual generic erosion in older mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists offset by premium pricing on newer, better-tolerated agents entering during the forecast window. Adrenal vein sampling and surgical volumes are normalized for the temporary procedure deferrals recorded in 2020 and 2021, treated as a one-time disruption rather than a lasting shift in surgical referral behavior. For the forecast to hold, screening uptake must continue expanding at broadly its recent pace and reimbursement for confirmatory testing must not tighten materially in the largest markets.

Triangulation and validation

No figure enters a report on the strength of one source. Where the two sizing routes disagree the difference is not averaged away — the assumption causing it is isolated, tested against a third independent measure, and either corrected or carried forward as a stated limitation. Historical years are back-tested against the growth actually recorded before any forecast is allowed to run forward from them.

Validation, this report

Outputs are back-tested against recorded 2020-2024 growth in mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist prescribing volumes and adrenal vein sampling procedure counts in the United States, Germany and Japan, the three markets with the most complete historical reporting. Segment share shifts, including the widening gap between medically-managed and surgically-treated cases, were reviewed against clinical practice with the primary research participants named above before being locked. Sensitivities were tested on screening-uptake pace and on generic entry timing for older mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists, since both assumptions move the medical-management segment more than any other input. The regional split was checked against relative hypertension prevalence and reported endocrinology referral rates rather than accepted as a fixed historical pattern.

Confidence and limitations

Where an estimate is firm and where it is not is stated rather than left to be inferred from the precision of the number.

Confidence framing, this report

Confidence is strongest for the United States, Germany and Japan, where prescribing volumes, procedure coding and company disclosures together support a firm read on both patient volumes and pricing. It is weaker for the bilateral hyperplasia segment across Latin America, the Middle East and parts of Asia Pacific, where screening rates are inconsistently reported and many diagnosed patients are treated without ever entering a specialist registry. A material upward revision to global hypertension screening guidelines, or an unexpected pricing shift once new nonsteroidal agents lose exclusivity, are the two developments most likely to move this estimate outside its current range.
