Prostate cancer nuclear medicine diagnostics involve the utilization of radioactive substances to detect and assess prostate cancer. These diagnostics play a crucial role in the detection, staging, and management of prostate cancer by providing comprehensive functional information regarding the disease's extent and characteristics. The process entails introducing radioactive substances (radiopharmaceuticals) into the body, typically through injection, which emit gamma rays or positrons.
The primary types of prostate cancer nuclear medicine diagnostics include single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and positron emission tomography (PET). Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is a nuclear imaging technique that generates detailed three-dimensional images depicting the body's functional processes. These diagnostics encompass various test types, including preliminary and confirmatory tests, and are utilized by various end-users such as hospitals, clinics, and others.
The prostate cancer nuclear medicine diagnostics market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides prostate cancer nuclear medicine diagnostics market statistics, including prostate cancer nuclear medicine diagnostics industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a prostate cancer nuclear medicine diagnostics market share, detailed prostate cancer nuclear medicine diagnostics market segments, market trends, and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the prostate cancer nuclear medicine diagnostics industry. This prostate cancer nuclear medicine diagnostics market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The prostate cancer nuclear medicine diagnostics market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $0.86 billion in 2024 to $0.99 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.0%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing demand for pet scans, increasing urbanization, rise in disposable income, rise in need for accurate cancer diagnosis, increasing emphasis on early detection.
The prostate cancer nuclear medicine diagnostics market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.71 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rising prevalence of prostate cancer, increasing demand for positron emission tomography, rising awareness about environmental sustainability, rising frequency of cancers, increasing digital transformation. Major trends in the forecast period include product innovation, technological advancements, advancements in nuclear medicine imaging, improved radiopharmaceuticals and imaging methods, innovative radiopharmaceuticals.
The increasing prevalence of prostate cancer is expected to drive the growth of the prostate cancer nuclear medicine diagnostics market. Prostate cancer is a type of cancer that develops in the prostate, a small, walnut-shaped gland in men responsible for producing seminal fluid that nourishes and transports sperm. The rise in prostate cancer cases can be attributed to factors such as an aging population, lifestyle changes, and genetic predisposition. Prostate cancer nuclear medicine diagnostics offer critical insights that allow healthcare providers to deliver more accurate, effective, and tailored treatment for patients with prostate cancer. For example, in February 2024, the World Health Organization, a Switzerland-based agency specializing in global public health, projected that by 2050, there will be over 35 million new cancer cases, a 77% increase from the estimated 20 million cases in 2022. Therefore, the growing prevalence of prostate cancer is driving the market for prostate cancer nuclear medicine diagnostics.
Key players in the prostate cancer nuclear medicine diagnostics sector are actively innovating diagnostic imaging technologies and securing approvals from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). FDA clearance ensures healthcare providers and patients have access to safe and effective diagnostic tests for various medical conditions. For example, in March 2022, Novartis, a Swiss pharmaceutical company, introduced Pluvicto (lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan) for treating adult patients diagnosed with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) that expresses prostate-specific membrane antigen-positive (PSMA-positive). Pluvicto combines a targeting compound (ligand) with a therapeutic radioisotope, delivering precise cancer treatment to prostate cancer cells expressing PSMA.
In March 2023, Life Healthcare Group, a South African healthcare company, acquired TheraMed Nuclear to enhance its diagnostic imaging services, particularly in detecting and treating diseases such as organ dysfunction and cancer. TheraMed Nuclear, based in South Africa, specializes in prostate cancer nuclear medicine diagnostics.
