The Gamma Knife Market has experienced significant growth, generating global revenue of approximately US$ 199 Million in 2024. The market is poised for continued expansion projected to reach an estimated valuation of around US$ 300 Million by the end of 2031. Several factors contribute to the growth of the Gamma Knife Market.
One of the main drivers of market expansion for the Gamma Knife is the worldwide increase in obesity cases. Doctors are recommending Gamma Knife procedures to obese patients due to its non-invasive nature. Non-invasive procedures hold more than 50% of the market share for aesthetic medicine, creating significant potential for Gamma Knife procedures.
Stereotactic radiosurgery has become an alternative to conventional craniotomy procedures for treating cancer. The Gamma Knife method is widely used because it targets tumor cells without harming healthy cells, resulting in fewer adverse effects. It offers better visualization, remote accessibility, and team communication options.
A significant portion of the population, especially the elderly, is affected by various neurological disorders such as multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, brain tumors, epilepsy, dementia, and stroke. Gamma Knife radiosurgery delivers targeted gamma radiation beams to the tumor site, making it suitable for treating complex neurological disorders. The quick recovery time and non-invasive nature of the procedure contribute to future market growth.
Brain tumors rank eighth in the list of most common cancers and third in cancer-related deaths among individuals aged 40 and older, according to the American Cancer Society. The increasing aging population is expected to drive demand for brain tumor treatment and rehabilitation, positively impacting market growth. Gamma Knife radiosurgery is a suitable treatment for numerous brain metastases, offering high integral dosage to the tumor with minimal impact on nearby healthy brain tissue. Combining biological and immunological agents with Gamma Knife radiosurgery further enhances treatment options.
The high cost of Gamma Knife radiotherapy machines and associated investment and maintenance expenses may deter adoption in emerging economies, potentially affecting market growth. These machines are more expensive than other radiation equipment. Additionally, a dearth of skilled specialists who can operate Gamma Knife equipment may limit market expansion.
The Gamma Knife procedure's less invasive nature compared to other treatments makes it the preferred choice in the United States. Rising disposable income also contributes to increased accessibility, fueling market growth.
Major companies in the Gamma Knife industry are investing in research and development to modify existing models with the latest technologies, further stimulating market growth.
Japan is expected to witness increased market share due to a rising incidence of vascular abnormalities, which result from lifestyle factors affecting many citizens.
Leading market players are strengthening their positions through mergers and acquisitions. Additionally, players are forming strategic alliances with competitors in other markets to drive growth.
