Radiation Therapy Market Navigating Dynamics Comprehensive Analysis and Forecasts 2025-2033

Key Insights

The Radiation Therapy Market size was valued at USD 10.2 USD billion in 2023 and is projected to reach USD 14.26 USD billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 4.9 % during the forecast period. Radiotherapy is one of the medical treatments that employ the use of radiation to deliver high intensity to eliminate cancer cells or reduce the size of tumors. It comes in two main types: It is classified into external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) and internal radiation therapy also referred to as brachytherapy. In EBRT, gamma rays are projected from outside the body on the tumor but in brachytherapy, a radioactive source is placed either in or close to the tumor. Some of the aspects include accuracy in isolating cancerous cells and minimizing effects on the surrounding healthy cells. This treatment can be used as the main treatment modality without surgery, administration of chemotherapy or immunotherapy. It is highly recommended for several forms of cancer such as breast cancer, prostate cancer, and brain cancer amongst others.
