Market Overview:
The global X-ray tube market size reached US$ 2.79 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 3.65 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 4.38% during 2023-2028. The advent of portable X-ray tubes, rising prevalence of numerous diseases, and the growing demand for packaged ready-to-eat (RTE) food products represent some of the key factors driving the market.
An X-ray tube, also known as a roentgen tube, is a device comprising an evacuated glass envelope containing an anode and a cathode, which converts electrical input power into X-rays. It is used in radiation therapy to deliver high energy radiation and shrink or destroy cancerous tumors. It is also utilized in dental imaging to produce images of the teeth and jaws. At present, increasing incidences of cross-border terrorist activities and illegal trespassing is driving the demand for X-ray tube in security imaging to produce images of objects and packages, such as luggage and cargo to detect any potential threats.
X-Ray Tube Market Trends:
There is a surge in the prevalence of heart-related disorders, blocked arteries, lung cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), kidney stones, and diabetes. This, coupled with the increasing aging population, which is more prone to these medical conditions, represents one of the major factors driving the demand for X-ray tubes around the world. Moreover, the rising adoption of pets for companionship and the growing spread of animal-borne diseases are impelling the market growth. In addition, the increasing preferences for minimally invasive (MI) surgical procedures by patients and healthcare professionals on account of their associated benefits is bolstering the growth of the market. Apart from this, the advent of portable X-ray tubes has made X-ray imaging more accessible and convenient for patients, which is contributing to the market growth. Furthermore, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in X-ray tubes to improve the accuracy of diagnoses, reduce radiation exposure and enhance the speed of image acquisition and analysis is bolstering the growth of the market. Besides this, the growing awareness about the easy availability of diagnostic and screening procedures and significant improvements in the healthcare infrastructure is creating a positive outlook for the market. Additionally, X-ray tubes are employed in the food and beverage (F&B) industry to enable efficient and effective inspection and analysis of food products that help ensure the safety and quality of the food supply. This, in confluence with the escalating demand for packaged ready-to-eat (RTE) food products on account of busy lifestyles and the expanding purchasing power of individuals, is strengthening the growth of the market.
