Radiotherapy Market: What will be the future growth opportunities in global industry

The global radiotherapy market is segmented on the basis of type, product type, application, end user and region. Based on type, the radiotherapy market is segmented into external beam radiotherapy, internal beam radiotherapy/brachytherapy, and systemic radiotherapy.

On the basis of type, the external beam radiotherapy segment is further divided into intensity-modulated radiotherapy, image-guided radiotherapy, tomotherapy, stereotactic technology, 3D conformal radiotherapy, proton beam therapy, and volumetric modulated arc therapy. The internal beam radiotherapy segment is divided into low-dose-rate brachytherapy and high-dose-rate brachytherapy. The systemic radiotherapy segment is divided into oral, intravenous, and instillation radiotherapy. The image-guided radiotherapy segment accounted for the largest share of the radiotherapy market. The large share of this segment can be attributed to the advantages offered by image-guided radiotherapy such as high precision, good quality image guidance, and the use of higher radiation dose.
