The global single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) market size is projected to expand at a substantial CAGR during the forecast period, 2021–2028. The growth of the market is attributed to increasing use of nuclear imaging technique that uses radioactive tracers and a scanner to record data.
SPECT scan is an imaging test that shows how blood flows through tissues and organs. SPECT is combined with computed tomography (CT) and MRI scanners to provide a detailed metabolic information of the human body. These systems are applicable in diagnosis of various diseases such as cardiac, brain, and cancer. Several types of therapeutics radioisotopes, such as iodine-123, technetium-99m, xenon-133, and thallium-201 are used along with the SPECT system for pain treatment and cell destruction procedure.
Proper calibration and operation direct the high quality results of SPECT systems. It can help in the diagnosis of seizures, stroke, stress fractures, infections, and tumors in the spine. SPECT is used in the evaluation of various diseases. Most broadly used SPECT systems are based on anger gamma cameras, which involves dual detectors that rotate around the patient.

Based on types of radioisotopes, the market is divided into technetium-99m, radium-223, gallium-67, iodine-123, and others. The gallium-67 segment is expected to account for a key market share during the forecast period owing to its increasing usage in the diagnosis of inflammation, both acute & chronic infection and tumours, such as Hodgkin’s disease, lymphoma, hepatoma, and bronchogenic carcinoma. It is also used as a bone imaging agent.
In terms of applications, the market is divided into cardiology, oncology, neurology, and others. The oncology segment is expected to grow at a rapid pace during the forecast period. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), about 17.1 million new cases of cancer and approximately 8.5 million deaths were recorded in 2018. It added that one in five men and one in 6 women can develop cancer during their lifetime, and one in eight men and one in 11 women die from the disease.
On the basis of regions, the market is categorized as Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. North America is anticipated to dominate the market during the forecast period. The regional market growth can be attributed to the advancements in technology, including hybrid imaging as well as introduction of new radiopharmaceuticals for diagnosis and the development of molecular imaging.
