IMV 2019 Radiation Therapy Market Summary Report
27 Sep 2019
Imaging has become an essential tool for radiation therapy departments and cancer centers, not only to diagnose where the cancer is, but for use in treating cancer patients. With ongoing improvements in hardware and software applications, imaging is used for treatment planning, simulating the treatment plan, and more recently, for image guidance during the cancer treatment procedure. Over the past decade, CT technology has become the #1 imaging tool for image guidance, treatment plans, and simulation, surpassing x-ray, and the field is continuing to evolve with the development of other imaging technologies.
IMV’s 2019 Radiation Therapy Market Summary Report provides a department-wide view of the key radiation therapy technologies used in treating cancer patients, including external beam therapy equipment, image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT), brachytherapy equipment, treatment planning systems, simulators (X-ray, CT, PET, and MRI), and oncology information systems. This report monitors trends over the past decade in the top cancer types treated with radiation, patient volume, installed equipment, market share, and technology adoption rates, as well as future plans for acquiring and using such technologies. Over 20 manufacturers providing hardware and software solutions for radiation therapy are covered in this report.
The data source for this report is IMV’s 2018/19 Radiation Therapy Census Database, which provides comprehensive profiles of hospital and non-hospital sites performing radiation therapy in the United States.
