Technological advancements in radiotherapy and the rising incidence of cancer are the major factors driving the growth of this market. Additionally, the growing adoption of radiotherapy procedures for cancer treatment, increasing use of particle therapy for cancer treatment, and the rising number of conferences and symposia focusing on the advancements in radiotherapy are some of the other major factors driving the growth of this market.

The rapid economic development and increasing healthcare expenditure in several emerging countries, such as China, India, Brazil, and Mexico, are expected to improve access to quality healthcare in these countries. This is considered a positive indicator for the radiotherapy market. The rising incidence of cancer in these countries is resulting in a growth in the demand for various radiotherapy devices and techniques. Moreover, governments across these countries are focused on providing modern and advanced healthcare services to larger proportions of their population, as well as the improvement of reimbursement coverage. Rapid growth in per-capita healthcare expenditure and the growing public demand for affordable healthcare services are driving the growth of healthcare products (including oncology devices) across these countries. This can be evidenced by the overall increase in healthcare expenditure. For example, the healthcare expenditure of India increased from 1.2% to 2.5% of the total GDP from 2019 to 2020. Whereas, in China, healthcare expenditure has increased to 12.6% to ~USD 930 billion, as the government has raised spending in the healthcare sector amidst the COVID-19 pandemic (Source: Healthcare Asia).
