Linear Accelerators for Radiation Market

Linear Accelerators for Radiation Market - size,
Share, Outlook and Opportunity Analysis 2018-2026
A linear accelerator is commonly used in external beam radiation treatments, for patients with
cancer. Linear accelerator customizes high energy x-rays or electrons depending on a tumor’s
shape and destroys cancer cells while sparing surrounding normal tissue. It is designed with
build-up safety features to ensure that it will not deliver a higher dose than prescribed. The
linear accelerator is used to treat all parts or organs of the body, by delivering high-energy xrays or electrons to the region of the patient's tumor. A radiation oncologist prescribes the
appropriate treatment volume and dosage of radiation. Furthermore, the medical physicist and
the dosimetrist determine how to deliver the prescribed dose and calculate the amount of time
it will take the accelerator to deliver that dose. Then, radiation therapists operate the linear
accelerator and give patients their daily radiation treatments.

Linear Accelerators for Radiation Market Drivers
Increasing number of initiatives by various government and private organizations in early
diagnosis of cancer, increases the survival rate, and reduces cancer mortality rate, and this is
expected to help to boost market growth of linear accelerators for radiation. For instance, in
February 2017, World Health Organization (WHO) proposed new guidelines to improve survival
rate of people living with cancer, by ensuring that health service providers can focus on
diagnosing and treating the disease earlier. WHO proposed three steps to early diagnosis are:
improve public awareness of different cancer symptoms, invest in strengthening and equipping
health services and training and ensuring people living with cancer can access safe and effective
treatment. Moreover, Cancer Research UK organized Early Diagnosis Research Conference in
February 2017, to share and discuss latest developments in early diagnosis research.
Growth of the linear accelerators for radiation market size is driven by increasing prevalence
and incidence of various types of cancer, along with growing patient awareness programs by
government and private organizations, and rising adoption of radiotherapy in cancer treatment.
For instance, according to the Cancer Atlas: 2017, there were an estimated 14.1 million new
cancer cases in 2012. Moreover, India, China, and other East and Central Asian countries
accounted for nearly half of world’s new cancer cases and deaths, in 2017. Furthermore,
according to the same source, by 2025, there will be an estimated 19.3 million new cancer
cases and 11.4 million cancer deaths, in less developed regions.

market growth for linear accelerators for radiation.
Linear Accelerators for Radiation Market – Regional Analysis
Geographically, global linear accelerators for radiation market is segmented into North America,
Latin America, Europe, Middle East, Asia Pacific, and Africa. Growing adoption of linear
accelerators by prominent cancer treatment centers, worldwide; and upgrading the conventional
treatment, will augment growth of the linear accelerators for radiation market, in the near
future. In May 2016, Leeds Cancer Centre, a leading providers of cancer care in the U.K.
updated its existing treatment equipment with eight Elekta Versa HD linear accelerators. The
Versa HD linear accelerators combined with Volumetric Arc Therapy (VMAT) allows to deliver
complex head and neck cancer therapy up to 42% faster. Furthermore, in November 2017,
Romanian government signed for five Elekta linear accelerators, to supply the country with
sophisticated radiation therapy devices. In addition, Princess Margaret Cancer Centre from
Canada and Odense University Hospital from Denmark in December 2016, also ordered highfield MR-supported linear accelerator (MR-linac). Both Versa HD linear accelerator and highfield MR-supported linear accelerator (MR-linac) are manufactured by Elekta AB.

Linear Accelerators for Radiation Market – Competitor
Some of the key players in the linear accelerators for radiation market include Elekta AB,
Siemens Healthcare, Varian Medical Systems, Inc., Accuray Incorporated, Shinva Medical
Instrument Co., Ltd., and among other.
Key players in this market are collaborating and sharing their expertise in the radiation therapy
to offer comprehensive and effective solution to patients with cancer. For instance, in June
2013, Siemens Healthcare and Varian Medical Systems successfully developed and deployed a
software interface that connects Varian’s ARIA oncology information system with Siemens’
ONCOR and PRIMUS accelerators and imaging systems. In September 2017, Elekta and Brainlab
collaborated, to integrate the use of Elekta’s Versa HD linear accelerator and Brainlab’s
ExacTrac patient positioning and monitoring technology.
