As per our report, the global radiotherapy market size is estimated to grow from USD 8.19 billion by 2025, from USD 6.12 billion in 2020. This market is expected to be growing at a CAGR of 6% during the forecast period.
Science of radiotherapy has changed over the years due to substantial advancements in the field of medical technology. A gradual transition is observed from traditional technologies towards sophisticated techniques such as intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), stereotactic body radiation therapy, 4D imaging, and proton therapy. These procedures are improving the precision and accuracy of radiotherapy.
MARKET DRIVERS
Technological developments in radiotherapy products, an increase in the number of the aged population, growing prevalence of cancer cases all over the globe, rising symposiums compelling investments in radiotherapy, and increasing acceptance of radiotherapy devices and processes will mainly drive the radiotherapy market. A few other factors which are fuelling this market growth are rising preference for non-surgical procedures and an increase in demand for replacement as hospitals are replacing older equipment with newer therapy systems that offer better facilities.
An essential requirement for improved and extremely accurate radiation therapy is the need to use the radiation beam to accurately hit just the affected tumor and avoid damage to the surrounding tissue. Image-Guided Radiotherapy is the product of work aimed at incorporating improved imaging techniques to promote more precise cancer tumor visualization. The primary driver projected to accelerate this market's growth over the next decade is further advancements in tumor imaging for radiotherapy applications. The recent developments in CT implementation are anticipated to drive market growth across the forecast period with frequency-modulated radiotherapy and image-guided techniques.
MARKET RESTRAINTS
Lack of sufficient infrastructure and adequate skills are the major restraint for the growth of the radiotherapy market.

This market research report on the global radiotherapy market has been segmented based on the type, application, equipment type, and region.
Radiotherapy Market - By Type
Based on type, Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) in the kind of external beam radiation therapy is set to hold a substantial market share. IMRT is by far the most common type of radiation therapy with external beams. It has the largest market share of all external beam therapy types. IMRT's primary benefit is that it can provide high doses of radiation to sites of cancer.
Radiotherapy Market - By Application
Based on the application, the prostate cancer application segment is estimated to hold the largest share in both the external beam radiotherapy market along with the internal radiotherapy market.
Radiotherapy Market - By Equipment Type
Based on equipment type, the segment of Radiation Therapy Simulators is anticipated to hold the largest market share throughout the forecast period. Radiation therapy simulators are the devices that generate the primary images for use in radiation therapy treatment planning. The area is overgrowing due to recent developments in the technologies used for diagnosis, care planning, provision of medication, and patient compliance confirmation.
Radiotherapy Market - By Region
Regionally, North America is projected to be the leading market in 2019 in the global radiotherapy market, while Asia-Pacific is anticipated to rise at the highest rate during the forecast period from 2020 to 2025. The growing number of cancer patients in the Asia-Pacific region is predicted to drive the radiotherapy market in this region.
