Radiotherapy is also known as radiation therapy, which utilizes high-energy radiation to kill cancer cells and reduce tumors. It involves the use of various rays including X-rays, gamma rays, and charged particles. During radiotherapy, radiation can be delivered to the body tissues internally as well as externally. According to the National Cancer Institute, around half of all the cancer patient population receives some type of radiation therapy during their treatment.
The global radiotherapy market was valued at $4,723 million in 2016, and is expected to reach at $7,222 million by 2023, growing at a CAGR of 6.2% from 2017 to 2023. The market is driven by growth in number of cancer patients, increase in geriatric population, rise in adoption of radiotherapy devices and procedures, owing to surge in number of awareness campaigns about the benefits of radiotherapy, and technological advancements in radiotherapy devices. However, lack of skilled personnel and difficulty in tumor visualization restrict the market growth. Conversely, growth opportunities in emerging markets and rise in demand for cancer treatment are expected to provide several opportunities for market growth during the forecast period.
