Image-guided Radiation Therapy Market
The image-guided radiation therapy market was valued at $1.9 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach $3.3 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 5.7% from 2024 to 2033.
Image-guided radiation therapy is a frequent imaging process used in the treatment of cancer. The therapy involves several imaging techniques such as MRI, PET, and CT scans, which allow for precise targeting of radiation for killing the cancer cells. The precise targeting is performed using the high-quality images generated by imaging technologies. This approach elevates the accuracy of treatment, improves therapy outcomes, and reduces radiation-related complications, making image-guided radiation therapy a necessary procedure in modern oncology practice.
Increase in prevalence of diverse forms of cancers and rise in demand for targeted cancer treatment are the major drivers of the image-guided radiation therapy market. In addition, the deployment of real-time imaging during ongoing treatment sessions has boosted the efficacy of treatment, thereby boosting the demand for image-guided radiation therapy. Surface-guided radiation therapy has recently witnessed widespread adoption in several oncology facilities due to its cutting-edge attributes such as intra-fraction motion monitoring and respiratory gating.
However, the cost associated with procuring instruments related to image-guided radiation therapy, along with the high costs of treatment for the patients, is a major restraint for the market. On the contrary, enhancements in technology are diversifying the prospects of the therapy and refining the healing process. Assimilation of AI and ML is enabling the delivery of personalized cancer treatment according to the vitals and requirements of the patient. For instance, in the case of a patient suffering from glioblastoma, an AI-based dose optimization software was used to tailor the radiation therapy. This included the delivery of optimal dose of radiation, resulting in maximum tumor control while guarding the pivotal parts of the brain such as brainstem and optic nerves.
