The market in Japan is expected to witness a significant growth during the forecast period owing to increasing number of initiatives undertaken by government organizations. For instance, the Japan Radioisotope Association (JRIA) intends to promote effective use of radioisotopes and provide better quality of life. According to investigations by JRIA, the demand for higher quality scans is increasing.
On the other hand, for SPECT, the number is about a million annually. Mo-99 in Japan is imported from other countries; hence, the supply is limited in the country. Therefore, in June 2018, JRIA formed the Japan Foundation of Medical Isotope Development (JAFMID) to promote the domestic production of technetium acid.
For instance, in December 2019, Fuzionaire Radioisotope Technologies K.K. (Fuzionaire Dx) and Department of Nuclear Medicine and Tracer Kinetics at Osaka University entered into a collaborative research agreement to drive the discovery of novel radiotherapeutic agents for the treatment of cancer.
