The Global Brachytherapy Market, valued at USD 1.06 Billion in 2024, is projected to experience a CAGR of 7.4% to reach USD 1.63 Billion by 2030. Brachytherapy is a specialized form of internal radiation therapy involving the precise placement of encapsulated radioactive sources directly within or immediately adjacent to a target tumor volume. This highly localized treatment delivers potent radiation doses while minimizing exposure to surrounding healthy tissues, thereby improving treatment efficacy and patient outcomes.

Key Market Drivers
The global brachytherapy market is significantly influenced by the increasing worldwide cancer burden. As cancer incidence continues its upward trajectory across various demographics, the demand for effective, localized treatment modalities like brachytherapy intensifies. According to the International Agency for Research on Cancer's Global Cancer Observatory, in February 2024, prostate cancer was the fourth most commonly occurring cancer worldwide with 1.5 million new cases in 2022.
Key Market Challenges
The substantial initial capital investment required for specialized equipment and facilities, coupled with the critical need for a highly skilled workforce, represents a significant impediment to the global brachytherapy market's expansion. This financial barrier limits the establishment of new brachytherapy centers and constrains existing facilities from upgrading to advanced technologies. The specialized nature of brachytherapy necessitates considerable upfront expenditure for afterloaders, treatment planning systems, and dedicated shielded rooms, presenting a challenging economic hurdle for healthcare providers aiming to integrate or enhance this treatment modality.
Key Market Trends
The emergence of artificial intelligence in brachytherapy treatment planning is significantly advancing the market by enhancing precision and efficiency. AI algorithms are streamlining complex tasks such as organ at risk contouring and dose optimization, which traditionally required considerable manual effort. The European Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology Congress Report from 2024 highlighted how AI-driven auto-segmentation reduced delineation time by half in cervical cancer brachytherapy and substantially decreased overall planning times with systems like BiCycle.
