According to the report, the radiopharmaceuticals market was valued at $7.9 billion in 2023 and is estimated to reach $21.8 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 10.6% from 2024 to 2033.
Prime determinants of growth
Rise in the prevalence of chronic diseases, rise in the adoption of strategies by key players, and surge in R&D activities within the radiopharmaceuticals sector are the major factors that drive the growth of the global radiopharmaceuticals market. However, the high cost associated with the development and implementation of radiopharmaceuticals restricts the market growth. Moreover, the rise in the number of pipeline products is expected to present new opportunities in the coming years.

The radiopharmaceuticals market forecast is driven by increase in prevalence of chronic diseases, particularly cancer, and is fueling the demand for effective diagnostic tools and targeted therapies. In addition, innovations in imaging modalities such as PET (Positron Emission Tomography) and SPECT (Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography) enable precise visualization of physiological processes and anatomical structures, facilitating early detection and accurate diagnosis of diseases such as cancer and cardiovascular disorders.
Rise in prevalence of cancer, cardiovascular and neurological disease, increase in demand for medical imaging, and increase in number of product approval for radiopharmaceuticals fuel the growth of the radiopharmaceuticals market.
Furthermore, increase in the number of clinical trials involving radiopharmaceuticals, and surge in demand for radiopharmaceuticals for various applications are the radiopharmaceuticals market trends that drive the growth of the market. In addition, increase in number of major key players for manufacturing of radiopharmaceuticals, increase in need for radiopharmaceuticals in hospitals & clinics, and surge in number of product approvals further drive the market growth during the forecast period. For instance, Curium announced that its generic version of DaTscan (Ioflupane I 123 Injection) was approved in March 2022, by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Ioflupane I 123 Injection is a single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) brain imaging agent used to assist in the evaluation of adult patients with suspected Parkinsonian Syndromes.
