Nuclear Medicine Market Valuation To Reach USD 18.76 Billion by 2030

Pune, India, November 2022/MRFR Press Release/- Market Research Future has published a half-cooked research report on the Nuclear Medicine Market.

Market Insights

Nuclear Medicine is a branch of medicine which uses radioactive substances in small amounts for diagnosis and treatment of various diseases. Nuclear medicine can be used for the treatment of various conditions including blood disorder, and some cancers and use vastly different imaging technologies than those used in traditional imaging as they show physiological function of the particular system making it a more targeted method of imaging. Market Research Future's report on the global nuclear medicine market divulges a number of vital figures and facts about the market. Nuclear Medicine Market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 13.2% over the review period. With the rapid expansion of advanced medical technologies, the market is expected to grow at a consistent upward trend to approximate market value of USD 18.76 Bn by the end of 2030.

Nuclear medicine offers precise diagnostic abilities and is useful in the early detection of cancer as well as other diseases such as cardiovascular disorders. The increasing prevalence of cancer and other chronic diseases and a high demand for early diagnosis of such diseases for effective treatment is a significant driver of the global market. Moreover, increasingly radiopharmaceuticals are being used for the diagnosis or treatment of chronic diseases in geriatric patients. The rapid expansion of this demographic is expected to encourage the growth of the market. The WHO has recorded astounding figures regarding the prevalence of cancer at nearly one out of every six deaths, making it one of the most significant causes for patient mortality, thus increasing the demand for nuclear medicine.

The promising future of the global nuclear medicine market is threatened by the high costs of radiopharmaceuticals which makes treatment unaffordable. Although it has not been proven to be distinctly harmful, erring on the side of safety has made patients wary of adopting nuclear medicine due to the side effects associated with exposure to radiation. However, market opportunities are expected to mitigate these threats to growth. Radioisotopes are witnessing increased usage for diagnostics and therapeutics as they offer the potential for learning medical information that is otherwise unobtainable. They have a wide range of applications in medical research which range from observing metabolic processes to tracing drug movement in biological systems.

Market Segmentation

MRFR has conducted a detailed study of the various parts of the nuclear medicine market which has been segmented on the basis of product type, application, end-user, and region. By product types, the nuclear medicine market has been segmented into diagnostic nuclear medicine and therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals. At present, the diagnostic nuclear medicine segment has attained a leadership position.
