The global Radiation Therapy Equipment market size is predicted to grow from US$ 2675 million in 2025 to US$ 4168 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.7% from 2025 to 2031.
Radiotherapy has two distinct practices: external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) and brachytherapy; depending on whether the ionizing radiation source is external to the patient or internal/in close proximity to the patient, respectively. Separate types of medical equipment are utilized for the practice of EBRT and brachytherapy. Most external beam radiotherapy is carried out with photon or electron beams; lately other particles such as protons, and carbon ions are also being utilized. In brachytherapy, radiation sources are placed directly into the target volume (intracavitary or interstitial brachytherapy).
Radiation therapy equipment refers to the specialized medical devices and systems used to deliver controlled doses of radiation for the treatment of cancer and certain non-cancerous conditions. This equipment includes technologies like medical linear accelerators (LINACs), which generate high-energy X-rays or electron beams, proton therapy systems for precise tumor targeting, and brachytherapy machines that deliver radiation internally. Other advanced systems, such as the Gamma Knife, CyberKnife, and TOMO therapy devices, offer specialized treatments for complex or hard-to-reach tumors.
The Radiation Therapy Equipment market is primarily driven by the growing global prevalence of cancer, which continues to fuel the demand for advanced treatment options. With an increasing number of cancer diagnoses worldwide, the need for precise, effective, and less invasive treatments has expanded the market for radiation therapy equipment. Additionally, technological advancements such as proton therapy, stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), and image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT) have improved treatment accuracy, reduced side effects, and expanded the range of cancers that can be effectively treated, further propelling market growth. Moreover, supportive government initiatives and increasing investments in healthcare infrastructure, particularly in emerging markets, are contributing to the adoption of radiation therapy technologies.
However, the market also faces significant challenges that may impede growth. The high cost of advanced radiation therapy systems like proton therapy and Gamma Knife machines makes them inaccessible for many healthcare facilities, especially in low-income regions. Additionally, the need for specialized training to operate these complex devices presents barriers to widespread adoption. Regulatory approval processes and stringent safety standards also add to the operational complexities and delays in bringing new products to market. Moreover, the scarcity of skilled professionals, particularly in developing countries, exacerbates the challenges in fully utilizing available radiation therapy technologies, limiting the effectiveness of these treatments in certain regions. the global key manufacturers of Radiation Therapy Equipment include Siemens Healthineers (Varian), Elekta, Accuray, Ion Beam Applications, Best Theratronics, etc. In 2023, the global top five players had a share approximately 90.0% in terms of revenue.
