Global medical radiation shielding market is estimated to be valued at USD 1.22 Bn in 2024, and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 4.8% during the forecast period (2024-2031). Medical radiation shielding is an important part of radiology practices and nuclear medicine facilities. Radiation shielding materials are designed to absorb hazardous radiation emitted during medical imaging scans and nuclear medicine procedures, thus, protecting both patients and medical staff. Rapid advancements in medical technologies utilizing ionizing radiation have significantly improved patient care over the years. However, these have also increased the need for proper radiation safety measures. Effective radiation shielding plays a key role in allowing the safe use of highly beneficial diagnostic and therapeutic radiology techniques.
Market Dynamics:
Global medical radiation shielding market growth is driven by increasing volume of radiology examinations performed worldwide. Growing geriatric population and rising cancer prevalence leads to greater diagnostic scans using technologies like CT, fluoroscopy, and nuclear medicine. However, strict safety regulations surrounding the use of radiation increases implementation and material costs. Designing specialized shielding solutions for various healthcare settings can also hamper the market growth. The continuous technology upgrades in medical imaging modalities can offer opportunities for advanced radiation-absorbing materials. Rising focus on installing shielding in retrofit projects involving older healthcare facilities can also drive the market growth.
