Medical irradiation refers to the purposeful application of radiation in the treatment of diseases, notably cancer. Controlled doses of radiation are precisely directed to damage or destroy specific cells, with the aim of minimizing the impact on surrounding healthy tissues. This therapeutic approach is widely used in oncology to target cancerous cells and inhibit their growth. Additionally, medical irradiation is employed in diagnostic settings, where radiation is used to produce images of internal structures or functions, aiding in the identification and diagnosis of various medical conditions.
Medical irradiation addresses various disease types, including conditions such as trisomy 21, which is a genetic disorder resulting in Down syndrome due to an extra copy of chromosome 21. Treatment options are classified into diagnostic and therapeutic categories. Distribution channels encompass direct tenders, retail sales, and other avenues. End-users of medical irradiation services include hospitals, clinics, homecare settings, therapy centers, and other healthcare facilities.

The medical irradiation market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $1.44 billion in 2023 to $1.69 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.8%. The expansion observed in the historical period can be attributed to several factors, including the increasing prevalence of cancer, a growing adoption of radiation therapy as a treatment modality, a rising geriatric population, an increasing demand for non-invasive treatment options, and the expansion of healthcare infrastructure. These factors collectively contributed to the growth of medical irradiation during that period.
The medical irradiation market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.93 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.9%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to various factors, including government initiatives aimed at enhancing cancer care, increasing awareness about early detection and treatment, a rise in disposable income, a growing focus on precision medicine, and an increasing demand for targeted cancer therapies. Major trends in the forecast period encompass the integration of artificial intelligence in radiation therapy, the adoption of online adaptive radiotherapy, the popularity of hypo-fractionated radiation therapy, the use of proton therapy for precise cancer treatment, and a shift towards image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT).
The anticipated increase in the prevalence of cancer is expected to drive the growth of the medical irradiation market. Cancer, characterized by uncontrolled cell growth impacting various organs, poses a significant global health challenge with substantial morbidity and mortality. Medical irradiation plays a crucial role in cancer treatment, employing targeted radiation to damage or destroy cancer cells while minimizing the impact on healthy tissues. According to the European Cancer Information System (ECIS) in October 2023, approximately 2.74 million new cancer cases were diagnosed in 2022 in the European Union (EU), reflecting a 2.3% increase from 2020. Additionally, cancer-related fatalities increased by 2.4% in 2022 compared to 2020. The high prevalence of cancer is a key driver propelling the growth of the medical irradiation market.
