Abstract
Description
As the technological environment is swiftly undergoing evolution, companies
operating in the healthcare/science/pharmaceutical/therapeutic industry are
now scaling new heights. Also, the respective sector's growth is boosted by
the rising number of health related issues emanating from the changing
lifestyle and incessantly evolving surroundings. To address the rising demand
for better healthcare options and the unmet needs within the some of the
underlying segments, related companies are coming up with novel and improved
therapies especially in the field of cancer treatment wherein the radiation
therapy is gaining quick acceptance.
Radiation therapy (RT) deploys ionized radiation and limits the proliferation
of malignant cells by impairing their DNA. Radiation therapy involves the
application of various types of radiations including photons, electron beams,
proton beams and neutron beams. Also, the treatment regimes are classified as
external radiation therapy, internal radiation therapy or brachytherapy and
systemic radioisotope therapy.
This report elicits the global radiation therapy market with focus on key
regional markets like North America, EMEA, Asia Pacific and Latin America.
Also, industry developments like development of LINACs, rapid Arc therapy and
proton therapy; growth drivers including rising cancer cases, increasing use
of alcohol and tobacco, expanding obese population and ageing population,
rising healthcare expenditure and increasing GNI; and challenges like fatal
cancer types, risks associated with treatment procedure and side effects,
increasing treatment costs and price pressure among others are discussed in
detail. Furthermore, the competitive scenario of the global radiation therapy
market, along with the profiles of top 4 industry players viz. Varian, Elekta,
Siemens, and Accuray are being included in the report.
By combining SPSS Inc.'s data integration and analysis capabilities with our
relevant findings, we have predicted the future growth of the industry. We
employed various significant variables that have an impact on this industry
and created regression models with SPSS Base to determine the future direction
of the industry. Before deploying the regression model, the relationship
between several independent or predictor variables and the dependent variable
was analyzed using standard SPSS output, including charts, tables, and tests.
