Key Industry Insights & Findings from the Report:
Particle therapy, also known as particle beam therapy, is a type of sophisticated radiation therapy used to treat cancer. It entails targeting and destroying malignant cells using charged particles like protons or heavier ions such as carbon. The global incidence and prevalence of cancer influence the desire for sophisticated cancer treatment options such as particle therapy.
As cancer rates rise, there is a greater need for effective and targeted treatments such as particle therapy. Due to the increasing prevalence of the fatal condition, innovative therapeutic approaches are required. Particle therapy is a cutting-edge cancer treatment method. External beam radiation treats tumours with protons and neutrons. The discharge of energetic ionizing particles at the target site breaks the DNA of the cells, causing tumour cells to die.
However, the COVID-19 pandemic impacted healthcare services, especially elective procedures like cancer treatment. Many healthcare facilities were forced to divert resources to deal with COVID-19 cases, causing delays or rescheduling of non-urgent treatments like particle therapy.
The Particle Therapy market is divided on the basis of type, product & service, system, cancer type, and application. Based on type, the market is segmented as proton type and heavy ion therapy. The product segment includes cyclotrons, synchrotrons, and synchrocyclotrons. By system, the market is segmented into multi-room systems and single-room systems. The cancer-type segment includes pediatric cancer, prostate cancer, lung cancer, head & neck cancer, breast cancer, and others. Application segment includes app treatment and research applications.
The proton-type category is expected to hold a major share of the Particle Therapy Market in 2022. Proton therapy applications to treat malignancies such as brain tumours, breast cancer, pediatric cancer, head and neck cancer, and other noncancerous tumours are likely to drive the worldwide particle therapy market over the forecast period. Doctors can send radiation to a specified depth in the body because of the unique physical properties of protons. As a result, proton therapy outperforms heavy ion therapy.
The cyclotrons segment is projected to grow at a rapid rate in the global particle therapy market. A cyclotron is a crucial piece of gear for proton therapy, which uses a focused beam of protons directed to a tumour site to treat different cancers. Cyclotrons are the most popular form of proton beam treatment, which generates and accelerates protons to 60% of the speed of light and 250 Mn electron volts.
The North America Particle Therapy Market is expected to register the maximum market share in terms of revenue in the near future. This can be attributed to the early adoption of novel medicated treatment and the availability of more particle therapy centres. Furthermore, the increase in R&D in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries is likely to enhance the market.
Furthermore, the growing number of cancer patients and the demand for innovative treatment techniques in the Asia Pacific is expected to accelerate market expansion. This, combined with increasing mergers and acquisitions among industry participants and improved healthcare infrastructure, is projected to encourage the use of particle treatment in nations such as China, India, and others.
