Global Positron Emission Tomography Devices Market Overview


The global Positron Emission Tomography Devices Market size is expected to grow at CAGR of 6.5% to reach USD 1.06 Billion during the forecasted 2023-2032.


Positron Emission Tomography Devices Market


Contrast media injectors are medical devices utilized to inject CM into the body to enhance the visibility of tissues for different medical imaging procedures. These procedures include computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, positron emission tomography, or magnetic resonance. CM injectors find extensive applications in radiology, interventional cardiology, ambulatory surgical centers, and diagnostic imaging centers across the globe. They have evolved from simple, manual injectors to automated injectors that precisely control the amount of the CM agent used, facilitate automated data collection, and warn about potential hazards, such as air embolisms or extravasations.


Some of the factors driving the market growth include the increasing demand for PET analysis in radiopharmaceuticals and the integration of X-ray tomography into PET. According to the World Nuclear Association April 2021, around 10,000 hospitals use radioisotopes in medicine worldwide, and about 90% of the procedures are for diagnosis. As per the same source, in developed countries, the frequency of diagnostic nuclear medicine is 1.9% per year, and the frequency of therapy with radioisotopes is about one-tenth.


June 2024: Siemens Healthineers, a prominent medical equipment company, has obtained permission from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for its Biograph Trinion PET/CT scanner. The PET/CT scanner incorporates a novel air-cooled, digital detector that utilizes lutetium oxyorthosilicate (LSO) crystal components. 


The Biograph Trinion is a unified platform that combines PET, CT, and post-processing operations into a single device, with a time of flight (TOF) of 239 picoseconds (ps). Siemens Healthineers has announced that their integrated post-processing imaging applications encompass oncology, theranostics (a fusion of diagnostics and therapies for the identification and treatment of certain types of cancer), cardiovascular imaging, and neurology imaging (including Alzheimer's disease).

Positron Emission Tomography Devices Regional Insights


In the current scope of the study, the above-mentioned segments are covered into the four global regions, namely the Americas, Europe, Asia-Pacific and the Middle East & African region.


The positron emission tomography devices (PET) market in the Americas has further been segmented into North America and South America, with the North American market divided into the US and Canada.


The European positron emission tomography devices (PET) market has been segmented into Western Europe and Eastern Europe. Western Europe has been classified as Germany, France, the UK, Italy, Spain, and the rest of Western Europe.  The positron emission tomography devices (PET) market in Asia-Pacific has been segmented into Japan, China, India, South Korea, Australia, and the rest of Asia-Pacific. The positron emission tomography devices (PET) market in the Middle East & Africa has been segmented into the Middle East and Africa.


Regional Market Summary


The Americas dominated the global market for positron emission tomography devices (PET) owing to presence of major market players and increased prevalence of Alzheimer's dementia within the region. As per the data suggested by the Alzheimer's Association, an estimated 5.7 million Americans of all ages are living with Alzheimer's dementia in 2018.


Europe is expected to hold the second largest position in the global positron emission tomography devices (PET) market. The market growth in this region is attributed to the government support and improving healthcare related research & development activities.


Asia Pacific was projected to be the fastest growing region in 2017. Factors such as, growing cases of head and neck cancer, and increasing healthcare expenditure drives the regional markets of the Asia Pacific region. According to the 2018 data suggested by the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, around 5,091 new cases of head and neck cancer were diagnosed and around 1,034 number of deaths occurred from head and neck cancer in Australia.


On the other hand, the Middle East and Africa held least share in the global positron emission tomography devices (PET) market due to the low per capita income, especially within the African region.
