The global Diagnostic Radiopharmaceuticals market size is predicted to grow from US$ 5283 million in 2025 to US$ 7998 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.2% from 2025 to 2031.
Radiopharmaceuticals refer to a special class of drugs containing radionuclides for medical diagnosis and treatment. Compounds or biological agents labeled with radionuclides used for medical diagnosis or treatment in the body.
Diagnostic radiopharmaceuticals are radioactive isotopes bound to biological molecules that can locate specific organs, tissues or cells in the human body. These radiopharmaceuticals can be used to diagnose diseases.
In vivo radiopharmaceuticals can be divided into diagnostic radiopharmaceuticals and therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals, and the main diseases targeted include thyroid diseases, tumors, rheumatoid arthritis, bone metastasis, liver cancer, etc.
The diagnostic radiopharmaceuticals market is primarily driven by the rising incidence of chronic diseases such as cancer, neurological disorders, and cardiovascular conditions, which require advanced imaging techniques for accurate diagnosis. The increasing use of PET and SPECT scans in healthcare systems worldwide has significantly boosted demand for diagnostic radiopharmaceuticals. Furthermore, innovations in molecular imaging, along with a growing focus on early detection and personalized medicine, are expanding the role of diagnostic radiopharmaceuticals in improving patient outcomes.
One of the key challenges facing the diagnostic radiopharmaceuticals market is the short half-life of many radiopharmaceutical compounds, which creates logistical difficulties in production, transportation, and storage. This limitation often requires proximity to specialized manufacturing facilities. Additionally, the market is constrained by regulatory barriers and the high costs associated with development and approval. Another challenge is the shortage of trained professionals in nuclear medicine, which limits the full utilization of diagnostic radiopharmaceuticals, particularly in emerging economies.
North America is the world's major consumer region, with sales accounting for 40% of the global total in 2023. Europe is also a major consumer region, accounting for 25% of the global market. China is also a very important consumer region due to the large number of cancers. At present, products represented by Cardinal Health, GE Healthcare, Curium Pharma, Jubilant Pharma, Bracco Imaging, etc. occupy a major position in the global market.
