San Francisco, 24 October 2018: The global radiation oncology market size is expected to reach USD 10.1 billion by 2025, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. It is projected to witness a CAGR of 6.5% over the forecast period. Rising prevalence of cancer is the primary factor responsible for substantial growth of the market for radiation oncology.
Technological advancements resulted in increased adoption of radiation oncology as primary cancer treatment. Development of compact advanced radiotherapy options such as CyberKnife, Gamma Knife, and tomotherapy are expected to complement this growth. These advanced methods pose lesser postoperative complications and faster recovery time.
Increasing per capita healthcare expenditure is also an important macroeconomic factor driving market growth. In addition, with the aid of supportive government initiatives and awareness, patients are not hesitant to opt for advanced treatment options. For instance, per capita health expenditure witnessed exponential growth of more than 55.0% from 1995 to 2014, as stated by the World Bank Group.
