Radiosurgery Market Size, Share and Global Trend By Indication (Cobalt 60 Systems (Gamma Knife), Electron-Emitting High-Energy Linear Accelerators(Linac), Proton Beam Therapy), By End User (Hospitals, Clinics, Others) and Geography Forecast till 2030

Radiosurgery is a form of surgery performed with the help of radiation, that destructs selected areas of the tissue using radiations. Radiosurgery can be categorized into stereotactic radiosurgery and staged radiosurgery. Stereotactic radiosurgery is performed on the accurate target with the radiation and in case of staged radiosurgery, these surgeries are performed in certain interval of time with smaller doses of radiation.

Radiosurgery is commonly used for the treatment of various type of cancers and tumors. According to the National Cancer Institute (NCI), 50% of the cancer patients are treated with radiosurgery. Radiosurgery includes advanced robotics, tumor tracking and imaging capabilities this makes treatment and surgeries easier for healthcare providers. Elekta AB introduced Leksell Gamma Knife Icon device which had a new concept of treating any target in the brain virtually. This device has capabilities of ultra-precise micro radiosurgery.
