REPORT DESCRIPTION
Medical Radiation Detection, Monitoring, and Safety Market Overview
Radiation power is used in various fields such as industries, agriculture, and medicine to benefit
humankind. It is widely being used in modern medical treatments, especially for the treatment
of cancer, as radiation helps in weakening and destroying particular cancer cells. Modern
medicine uses radiation power to obtain diagnostic information about a patient’s specific organ
for treatment. Medical imaging helps in diagnosing and detection of diseases at early stages. For
instance, exploratory cardiac catheterization is replaced with CT scan for the detection of polyp
in the body, which can turn cancerous if it is not detected at the early stage. Medical radiation
detection, monitoring, and safety market is segmented into detector type, monitoring products,
and safety products. Various types of detectors include solid-state detectors, liquid filled
detectors, and scintillators. Solid-state detectors, which provides good accuracy and
reproducibility, are used to perform in vivo dosimetry and quality control for both radiotherapy
and radiology.
Medical Radiation Detection, Monitoring, and Safety Market: Drivers
Increasing use of radiation therapy for treatment and diagnosis purposes is expected to fuel
growth of medical radiation detection, monitoring, and safety market. According to a study
conducted by the National Academics of Sciences Engineering and Medicine in 2016, over 400
million diagnostic examinations and around150 million dental X-ray examinations were
performed in the 2015. Increasing prevalence of cancer, rising awareness about use of radiation
therapy to treat diseases, and favorable reimbursement policies are other factors that drive
growth of medical radiation detection, monitoring, and safety market.
