PET-CT Scanner Device Market Statistics - 2030

The global PET-CT scanner device market was valued at $1,876.14 million in 2020, and is projected to reach $3,202.48 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 5.5% from 2021 to 2030. 

Positron emission tomography is also called as PET imaging or a PET scan, which is a type of nuclear medicine imaging. It uses small amounts of radioactive materials called radiotracers or radiopharmaceuticals, a special camera and a computer to evaluate organ and tissue functions. It can detect the early onset of disease before other imaging test by identifying changes at the cellular level. It can diagnose heart diseases, cancer, gastrointestinal, endocrine, and neurological disorders. Radiotracers that are used in it usually accumulate in tumors or regions of inflammation and bind to the specific proteins in the body. For instance, F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) is a common radiotracer that gets absorbed in cancer cells. Further, it can be detected in the area of examination at the time of imaging. It has various advantages to use like it gives greater detail with higher level of accuracy. Moreover, it provides greater convenience for the patient who undergoes PET-CT scan.

The growth of the PET-CT scanner device market is driven by rise in prevalence of chronic illnesses throughout the world, growth in demand for effective diagnostic systems, and increased coverage for PET-CT scanning under Medicare. Moreover, surge in use of PET-CT for cancer diagnosis, development of newer products, and increase in investments in R&D by companies are other factors that contribute toward the growth of the market. However, limited shelf life and inadequate availability of radiopharmaceuticals are expected to hinder the market growth. Conversely, improvement in healthcare infrastructure in emerging nations offers the lucrative growth of the market.

What is the Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on PET-CT Scanner Device Market?

The application of PET imaging makes it possible to monitor vital pathophysiological alternations of COVID-19 at the molecular level, and thus provides essential guidance for the subsequent diagnosis, evaluation, and treatment of COVID-19. F-labeled fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG), a radiolabeled glucose analogue, is still the most commonly-used PET imaging agent in COVID-19 cases, and the integrated PET/CT system can be utilized to characterize the functional and structural changes of COVID-19 simultaneously. This use of devices in the diagnosis and evaluation of the COVID-19 helped the PET-CT scanner devices market to gain its position. 

The impact of COVID-19 on the PET-CT scanner device market was recorded to be fairly positive. This was attributed to increasing use of PET-CT scan device in the diagnosis, evaluation, and treatment of COVID-19. Moreover, the cancer patients undergoing radiation therapy are at an elevated risk for the development of more severe disease. The demand for PET CT scanner devices is anticipated to rise as individuals with cancer are worried about the COVID-19 effects on them which also impacted the growth of the market.

The global PET-CT scanner device market is segmented into type, service provider, slice count, isotope/detector type, application, and region.
