South & Central America Radiopharmaceutical Theranostics Market

At 10.3% CAGR, the South & Central America Radiopharmaceutical Theranostics Market is Projected to be worth US$ 233.71 million by 2028, says Business Market Insights

According to Business Market Insights’ research, the South & Central America radiopharmaceutical theranostics market was valued at US$ 129.48 million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 233.71 million by 2028, registering a CAGR of 10.3% from 2022 to 2028. Rising incidence of cancer and rising application in treatment of cardiovascular disorders are the critical factors attributed to the South & Central America radiopharmaceutical theranostics market expansion.             

Theranostics in nuclear medicine gathers researchers’ interest through molecular imaging and personalized medicine. This is achieved through assistance in the management of various diseases, improves patient selection process, predicts drug response and toxicity, determines prognosis, and helps avoid futile and costly/expensive examinations and treatments. The theranostic approach to nuclear medicine involves a combination of diagnostic imaging and therapy based on a radioactive drug; its primary focus is the diagnosis, while the secondary focus is the treatment of a tumor site. Radioiodine was the first theranostic radiopharmaceutical used in treating and imaging thyroid diseases. In radioiodine therapy, the radioisotope iodine-131 is a gamma and beta emitter, and the sodium-iodide symporter can directly mediate the gamma emitter to thyroid cells. Further, gamma and positron emitters (β+) are used in nuclear imaging. Gamma emitters such as technetium-99m or iodine-123 are used in SPECT imaging, whereas the use of gallium-68 and fluorine-18 in PET imaging can provide better resolution. Therefore, theranostics-based nuclear-targeted therapies are emerging as a useful tool for treating in patients suffering from advanced neuroendocrine and gastroenteropancreatic tumors such as neuroblastomas. This is expected to drive the South & Central America radiopharmaceutical theranostics market during the forecast period.
