Global Gamma Knife Market: Competitive Intelligence and Tracking Report 2018 – 2026

Global Gamma Knife Market: Competitive
Intelligence and Tracking Report 2018 – 2026
Global Gamma Knife Market, By Indication (Brain Metastasis, Arteriovenous
Malformation (AVM), Cancer, Trigeminal Neuralgia, Movement Disorders),
Anatomy (Head, Neck), and Geography - Insights, Size, Share, Opportunity
Analysis, and Industry Forecast till 2025
Chronic neurological disorders such as metastatic brain tumors, trigeminal neuralgia, and arteriovenous
malformations are complex to treat. Standard brain surgery and radiation therapy can damage healthy
tissues and cause various side effects. Moreover, these treatment methods involve in-hospital post
treatment care. Gamma knife, which has been introduced decades ago, is one of the most effective noninvasive technologies that is steadily gaining traction in the treatment of tumors. Gamma knife surgery
represents a major advancement in brain surgery, with a one-day treatment procedure. Patients can go
home the same day after treatment with gamma knife. Click To Read More On Global Gamma Knife

Market Dynamics
There are over 2,500 published studies for gamma knife, far more than that for alternative treatment
options for brain tumors. Abnormalities measuring less than 1 inch in diameter can be treated with
gamma knife. Leksell Gamma Knife is the among most efficient gamma knife devices in the market.
The device radiates 201 beams that converge at the lesion point, thus destroying only the affected or
target tissue. The device can be programmed to for multiple sessions.
Increasing awareness about the high affectivity of these products and their lowering cost will increase
the adoption of this device in the near future. There are a number of centers located globally for gamma
knife treatment. Increase in healthcare investments in China, India, Brazil, and other emerging
economies would be a major contributing factor towards increase in revenues of the global gamma
knife market.
Gamma knife is an outpatient procedure that allows the patient to travel back home the same day of
treatment. Gamma knife is a highly focused radiation therapy for brain or spinal cancer involving a
single treatment high-dose radiation therapy. Cyberknife on the other hand, which can treat cancer
anywhere in the body, involves one to five radiation treatment capability. Gamma knife therapy is
considered to be much safer than the open-skull surgeries owing to these factors. The global gamma
knife market is expected to grow gradually with increase in awareness. There are more than 300
gamma knife centers worldwide at present, which are estimated to treat nearly 60,000 patients every
year. However, there still exists a high demand-supply gap in the countries in pacific region, and Africa
continent. China, India, Thailand, South Korea, and Japan are leading countries in terms of the number
of gamma knife centers. The gamma knife market is therefore considerable in this region, however
behind North America and Europe where the number of gamma knife centers exists far more than Asia.

The global gamma knife market was valued at US$ 174.4 million in 2016 and is expected to expand at
a CAGR of 7.7% during the forecast period (2017 – 2025).
Non-invasive precision therapy to favor the growth of global gamma knife market
Gamma knife radiotherapy involves convergence of 201 beams that can treat the tumor cell leaving
precisely leaving the surrounding healthy cells undamaged. Utilizing the pre-operative diagnostic
images form CT/MRI scan, the instrument provides highly accurate irradiation at the tumor site. This is
a major factor that drives the usage of gamma knife radiotherapy in treating brain tumors. Application
of this procedure is increasing further in trigeminal neuralgia, and arteriovenous malformations.
However, gamma knife is limited to 190 positions to reach the tumor cells.
Alternative treatment options include Cyberknife, LINAC radiosurgery, conventional brain surgery,
proton therapy, and modified linear accelerators. Gamma knife is the most researched and established
radiosurgery. There are over 2,500 published studies for gamma knife.
Considering the current number of patients being treated i.e. 60,000, there exists a major growth
potential for gamma knife market. Installation of gamma knife equipment at various locations to
improve accessibility would propel the gamma knife market growth in near future.
