Brachytherapy Market Information by type (High dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy, Low dose-rate (LDR) brachytherapy, Pulse Dose Rate (PDR) brachytherapy), by device (after loader and applicators) by application prostate cancer, cervical cancer, breast cancer, skin cancer, others)- Forecast till 2030

Brachytherapy Market Overview:

The Brachytherapy Market is expected to reach USD 692.3 Million by 2030 at 7.9% CAGR during the forecast period 2022-2030.

Brachytherapy is a treatment that involves injecting the patient with radioactive material. This particular form of radiation treatment is used to treat cancer. Internal radiation is another name for this. Compared to the traditional radiation treatment, which delivers radiation from a machine outside an individual's body, this enables doctors to administer larger doses of radiation to the targeted portions of the body. Brachytherapy often takes less time than external beam radiation to complete, and it may have fewer adverse effects. It can be used both alone and in conjunction with other cancer therapies.

The market is driven by factors like the increase in cancer cases that require brachytherapy, including prostate cancer, which would help the industry grow throughout the projected period. The market participants would be able to generate the most income in the following years, thanks to technological breakthroughs for cancer treatment.

Due to rising cancer rates and early acceptance of new technology, North America now controls the majority of the industry. Due to its large patient population and well-developed infrastructure, the United States controls most of the North American market. However, because of the presence of rising economies in this area and the growing awareness of improved treatment choices, Asia Pacific is anticipated to rise more quickly. Improved healthcare infrastructure in urban and rural regions is a primary goal for developing nations like China and India, which will benefit the region's total healthcare system.

COVID 19 Analysis

The arrival of the pandemic has diverted the present skilled radiotherapy professionals towards treating patients who are covid positive. The patients are in distress and the situation is panicking. To help these patients, the government has increased its investment that will be helpful for the market players to increase their developments in the brachytherapy market and come up with global products to put the target audience that is patients in a better and secured place.

Brachytherapy Market Dynamics

Drivers

Based on the study formulated by the International Agency for Research on Cancer, the world is expecting a high prevalence of cancer. As per the formulated statistics, there will be an increase in the number of people having cancer globally and the number will reach several 24.6 million by the end of the future period, by 2030. This is expected to emerge as the largest factor that will help the market grow during the forecast period that ends in 2028.

Restraints

But, on the way of its projected growth, the market is expected to witness certain restraints that will bar the market from growing at the expected rate. During the period, the market is likely to witness a lack of access to reliable technological advanced systems, especially in the developing regions. Also, there is a lack of professionals who possess the required degree of skilled radiotherapy, and hence, the brachytherapy market is likely to witness a slowdown in its growth period. The death rate in the low and middle incomes is low and only the radiotherapy needs of 3-4% of the total population are likely to be met.

Technology Analysis

There is a huge demand in developing and underdeveloped countries for the availability of skilled professionals in the medical field, especially radiotherapy skills. Hence, the advent of significant opportunities and investment for the market players will rise and provide the market with an enhanced base to work upon. The market players are soaring high by indulging in innovative and creative practices, alongside the new product developments that will help the market.

Study Objectives
