Description

IMV’s 2025 Radiation Therapy Market Outlook Report provides a department-wide view of the key radiation therapy (RT) technologies used in treating cancer patients, including external beam radiation therapy (EBRT), 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. Future plans for acquiring such technologies are estimated, including capital budgets for RT equipment. A wide variety of manufacturers providing hardware and software solutions for therapy systems are covered in this report.
