Asia Pacific Radiopharmaceuticals Market Growth & Trends

The Asia Pacific radiopharmaceuticals market size is estimated to reach USD 3.76 billion by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 10.5% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Radiopharmaceuticals are widely used in the field of oncology, and cardiovascular diseases. Ongoing research and studies demonstrating positive results are widening the scope of radioisotope applications for the diagnosis and treatment of bone diseases, respiratory diseases, thyroid-related diseases, and conditions of the digestive tract. Along with these applications, the radioisotopes are largely used in radiopharmacology to study drug movement in lab subjects.

Gamma emitter Technetium-99m is the most commonly used radioisotope in radiopharmaceuticals. Other widely used radioisotopes include Fluorine-18, Indium-111, and Iodine-131. Numerous research studies are further expanding the application areas of radiopharmaceuticals in diagnostics as well as in therapeutics.

The adoption of PET as a diagnostic tool is rapidly increasing since it offers high accuracy over other diagnostic techniques. The accuracy in the diagnosis has a direct impact on the decision-making and treatment monitoring process. PET is commonly integrated with X-ray and computed tomography to increase the accuracy. The growing demand for these diagnostic procedures is expected to fuel market growth during the forecast period.

Currently available cancer treatment options, such as chemotherapy and radiation therapy, include drugs and radiations, which are non-target specific. Thus, these therapies have a major disadvantage of affecting the whole body or the organs surrounding the target site. Radioisotopes have an advantage over these techniques since they aid in targeting specifically the tumor without affecting the surrounding body parts. Thus, benefits associated with these diagnostic and treatment procedures is augmenting the demand for radiopharmaceuticals in disease treatment and diagnosis.
