Medical Radiation Shielding Market Perspective, Demand Outlook, Trend Analysis, Intelligence & Industry Estimates To 2027

Radiation protection, usually known as radiological protection, is defined as the protection of human being from the damaging effects of exposure to ionizing radiation, and the means for achieving this. The accepted understanding of the term radiation protection is restricted to protection of people. Exposure can bedue to aradiation source which is external to the human body or because of the intake of radioactive material into the body. The ionizing radiation is having various use in industry and medicine, and it can present a substantial health hazard. It causes microscopic damage to the live tissue that results in radiation sicknessand skin burns at high exposures, and elevated risks of cancer at low exposures.

The global medical radiation shielding market is anticipated owing to the diagnostic shielding segment for the largest amount of share of the market during the future. The growth is boosted by the factors which includes technological advancements and rising adoption rate of medical diagnostic equipment. The other factors, including the rising cases of cancer, increasing usage of nuclear medicine and radiation therapy for diagnosis purpose and treatment of cancer. The rising number of diagnostic imaging centers and installation bases of radiology equipment, hiking safety awareness among people working in radiation-prone environments, increasing healthcare industry cross the globe, and rise in the number of people which are under insurance are anticipated to rise the growth of this market. However, higher prices of MRI scanners is projected to confine the growth of this market in the coming forecast period. The emerging economies of APAC such as China and India are wealthy markets in the making, as awareness about health hazards of radiation are inspiring a desire for radiation-free working environment.
