The nuclear medicine is an intricate branch of medical science that uses radiopharmaceuticals for detection and diagnostic procedures. The radiopharmaceuticals consist of radioisotopes produced through particle accelerator such as the medical cyclotron and are used for targeted therapy, detection based imaging and therapeutics. With advancement in medical technology, the imaging and diagnostic devices have evolved significantly.

The nuclear medicines are used in the diagnostic imaging equipment to increase the efficacy of diagnosis and thus are gaining popularity worldwide. The radiopharmaceuticals are also used in the treatment of cancer, thyroid, bone metastasis, arthritis and so on, wherein doses of doses of ionizing radiation are delivered to diseases sites for curative or palliative applications.

The nuclear medicines or radiopharmaceuticals are administered in very small quantities and thus does not possess any side effect. This has fueled the development of advanced radiopharmaceuticals and is anticipated to be a major factor driving the growth of the global nuclear medicine market during the forecast period.

North America contributed the largest share to the global nuclear medicine market in 2019 and is anticipated to be a dominating geography during the forecast period. The key factors driving the growth of nuclear medicine marker in North America are increasing investment in novel drug discovery, early adoption of nuclear medicine in therapeutic & diagnostic applications, and prevalence of chronic diseases primarily cancer & cardiovascular diseases.

Asia Pacific contributed a significant share to the global nuclear medicine market in 2019 and is anticipated to be the fastest growing segment during the forecast period. Increasing investment in expansion of biotechnology and pharmaceutical industry, and rising adoption of advanced therapeutic and diagnostic technologies are expected to drive the Asia Pacific nuclear medicine market in coming years.

The report titled “Nuclear Medicine (Radiopharmaceuticals) Market - Global Market Share, Trends, Analysis and Forecasts, 2023-2032” wherein 2021 is the historic period, 2022 is the base year, and 2023 to 2032 is forecast period.

The therapeutic nuclear medicine is segmented into alpha emitters, and beta emitters (Iodine-131, Yttrium-90, Samarium-153, Lutetium-177, Rhenium-186, Other). The brachytherapy isotopes are sub-segmented into Iodine-125, Palladium-103, Cesium-131, Iridium-192, and other. Based on applications, the global nuclear medicine market is segmented into oncology, cardiology, neurology, thyroid, and others.  Based on end user, the global nuclear medicine market is segmented into hospitals & diagnostic centers, and research institutes. Based on geography, the global nuclear medicine market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East & Africa, and South America.

The research provides in-depth analysis of prominent players holding majority share of the global market with a focus on all operating business segment, and would identify the segment of the company focusing on Nuclear Medicine (Radiopharmaceuticals).

Further, market share of prominent companies in the global Nuclear Medicine (Radiopharmaceuticals) market would also be estimated.
