Market Overview:
The global GOS scintillator market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for X-ray CT and X-ray microscope applications, and the growing demand for laser materials in Asia Pacific. The ceramic type segment is expected to dominate the global GOS scintillator market during the forecast period, owing to its high efficiency and low cost.
Product Definition:
GOS scintillator is a material that is used to detect and measure radiation. It is made of glass and enriched with gadolinium oxide (Gd2O3). When radiation passes through GOS scintillator, it emits light that can be detected by a photomultiplier tube or other device. This light can then be used to calculate the amount of radiation that passed through the scintillator.
Ceramic Type:
Ceramic type is a material that exhibits a high degree of tolerance to thermal shock, electrical insulation and mechanical stress. The most commonly used ceramic materials include alumina, zirconia and silica (quartz). Ceramics are widely used in the fabrication of detectors owing to their ability to form thin films coupled with superior performance as scintillators.
Plastic Type:
Plastic type is a material that can be molded, extruded or processed to give specific shapes. The most common types of plastic used in the production of scintillators are polystyrene (PS), acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) and high impact polystyrene (HIPR). Plastic materials have good mechanical properties such as toughness and strength along with being lightweight.
Application Insights:
The global market is segmented by application into X-ray CT, X-ray microscope, and laser materials. The X-ray CT segment accounted for the largest share in 2017 owing to its growing usage in medical imaging applications. It provides enhanced image contrast which aids in identifying soft tissue structures thereby aiding the doctors during diagnosis.
The major manufacturers of GOS based products are LumaSense Inc., Optima Diagnostics LLC., and Siemens Healthineers Ltd. These companies are constantly investing in R&D activities to develop advanced products with enhanced performance characteristics that can be used across various imaging systems such as Computed Tomography (CT), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), ultrasound, elastography among others.
Regional Analysis:
North America held the largest market share of over 40% in 2017. The growth is attributed to the presence of major industry participants, advanced healthcare infrastructure and high demand for diagnostic imaging equipment. Moreover, increasing investments in R&D by government organizations and private companies are expected to fuel regional market growth during the forecast period.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to witness lucrative CAGR over the forecast period owing to rising nuclear energy activities in countries such as China and India coupled with growing medical applications for GOS scintillators across various Asia Pacific countries. Furthermore, increasing awareness about radiation safety among people has led them to prefer alternative technologies such as GOS scintillators over traditional ones resulting into increased demand from end-use industries such as medicine & healthcare, industrial & manufacturing inspection etc., which will drive this regional market further.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for radiation therapy in cancer treatment
- Rising incidence of cancer and other diseases requiring radiation therapy
- Growing popularity of proton therapy as an alternative to traditional radiation therapy
- Proliferation of PET/CT scanners in hospitals and clinics worldwide
- Technological advancements in scintillator materials and products
