Nuclear Imaging Equipment - Overview
Nuclear imaging is a novel imaging technique that uses small doses of intravenous radiotracers that bind to tumor cells and uses advanced nuclear imaging equipment to diagnose and treat chronic diseases such as cancer, cardiac, gastrointestinal, endocrine, and neurological disorders. These radiotracers are classified as radiopharmaceuticals (or nuclear medicine in simple words) containing radioactive isotopes. Radiotracers consist of a radionuclide, an excited state of the atom which emits energy to change the atom into a stable form and releases a carrier molecule that travels through the body until it comes into contact with its intended target cell or tissue, or organ system.
Global Nuclear Imaging Equipment Market Forecast and Trends
Growth Drivers
Technological Advancements Leading to Shift from Standalone to Hybrid Modalities
The increased awareness of the potential of early and timely diagnosis for the management and treatment of diseases has driven the technological advancements in nuclear imaging equipment, shifting it from standalone to hybrid modalities. The innovation of PET/CT modality has resulted in the success of hybrid PET/CT systems, hybrid PET/MRI, and SPECT/CT systems. These hybrid systems provide precise images with better resolution and morphological and physiological information in just one examination. This is due to the development of cadmium-zinc-tellurium-based detectors, which provide simultaneous viewing of physiological and anatomical structures. For example, in skeletal evaluation, a SPECT/CT system offers accurate localization and improved specificity than the information provided by a CT.
Novel Diagnostic and Therapeutic Radiopharmaceuticals Launch
Globally the research and development in robust diagnostic and therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals are gaining momentum due to the rising demand for radiotracers in nuclear imaging. The countries with a higher burden of patients with chronic diseases will see sophistication in therapeutic applications, which will drive the Global Nuclear Imaging Equipment Market. For example, in August 2021, a distribution agreement between Cardinal Health and IRE-ELiT S.A. led to an expansion in patient access to new radiopharmaceuticals for PET imaging. Around 40 million nuclear medicine procedures are performed each year, and the demand for radioisotopes rises by roughly 5% yearly, according to the World Nuclear Association Analysis 2021.
Increase in Incidence and Prevalence of Cancer, Cardiac and Other Medical Ailments
The nuclear imaging equipment market is driven by the increasing incidence and prevalence of chronic diseases such as cancer, cardiac, gastrointestinal, endocrine, and neurological disorders. Due to technological advancements in nuclear imaging equipment, it is possible to identify, diagnose and treat various diseases with the help of operational data at the molecular and cellular levels. For example, in September 2021, GE Healthcare announced the launch of a novel scanner with a new automated workflow feature that offers an exceptional view of cardiac anatomy and pathology.
Restraints
High Cost of Nuclear Imaging Equipment
Nuclear imaging equipment is an expensive and premium product as they require high investments for installation, which increases the procedural cost for patients as well. Therefore, in developing countries, the adoption rate of novel nuclear imaging systems is affected as most healthcare facilities cannot afford such expensive systems. For example, according to Medical Buyer, in Brazil, the average cost of a PET system is between USD 400,000 and USD 600,000, while a SPECT system would cost between USD 250,000 and USD 400,000. Third-party payers such as Medicare and Medicaid aide healthcare facilities to purchase such costly systems by providing reimbursements for the costs incurred in the diagnostic, screening, and therapeutic procedures. Therefore, the continuous cuts in reimbursements for diagnostic imaging scans and the increasing cost of nuclear imaging systems coupled with the high maintenance costs are expected to hamper the market growth.
Impact of COVID-19 on Global Nuclear Imaging Equipment Market
The Global Nuclear Imaging Equipment market was unexpectedly and negatively impacted during the Covid-19 pandemic. The sudden rise in infections significantly impacted the global availability of hospital resources. The world saw a reduction in the in-patient and out-patient services for other diseases as the implementation of Covid-19 infection prevention and control measures were taken up. The nuclear medicine scans and therapies for identification, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases declined vigorously. This led to a decrease in demand for nuclear imaging equipment such as Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scan, Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) scan, Planar Scintigraphy Imaging Systems, etc. The shortage of hospital beds, medical staff, and necessary nuclear imaging equipment also affected the Nuclear Imaging Equipment Market. However, in the post-COVID era, the Nuclear Imaging Equipment Market is gradually picking momentum as significant efforts are being taken by healthcare practitioners, governments, and market stakeholders to recover from losses caused due to the pandemic.
