Market Overview:
The global radiation protective chest shields market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing incidence of cancer, rising awareness about radiation protection, and technological advancements in the field of radiation protection. Based on type, the global radiation protective chest shields market is segmented into vest, skirt, and breast shield. The vest segment is expected to account for the largest share of the global market in 2018 owing to its high demand from hospitals and clinics across regions. By application, the hospital segment is expected to account for a major share of the global market in 2018 due to increasing number of cancer patients requiring radiation therapy treatments.
Product Definition:
A radiation protective chest shield is a device made of lead, plastic, or other material that is worn by a person to protect the torso from radiation exposure. The shield blocks and absorbs radiation, which reduces the amount of radiation that enters the body. Radiation protective chest shields are important for people who are exposed to high levels of radiation, such as cancer patients receiving radiotherapy treatment.
Vest:
A vest is a device worn by radiation and chemotherapy patients to protect their chest from harmful radiation. It works like a shield, absorbing the radiations which in turn reduces the dose received by the patient. The Vest has two types: Water Based Vests (W-BV) and Oil Based Vests (O-BV).
Skirt:
A skirt is a protective device that is placed around the radiotherapy equipment to protect it from accidental contact with the skin. It also helps in reducing patient contamination of the radiotherapy field and improves its efficiency. Skirt has different types such as single, double, triple, and quadruple skirted shields available depending upon the need of patients undergoing Radiotherapy treatments for cancer.
Application Insights:
The market is segmented by application into hospital, clinic, laboratory and others. The hospital segment dominated the overall market in terms of revenue share in 2017. This can be attributed to a large number of applications for radiation protection chest shields at hospitals compared to other segments. In addition, a high incidence rate of accidents caused due to exposure to ionizing and non-ionizing radiation is expected to drive demand for these products over the forecast period.
Radiation protective clothing such as lead aprons worn by medical personnel help reduce their exposure time which helps prevent secondary contamination during procedures such as X-ray imaging or surgery involving human tissue samples or organs which are highly radioactive due to their radioactivity levels ranging from 0.4 Sievert (Sv) - 14 Sv where 14 Sv represents the maximum permissible limit set by International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP).
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global radiation protective chest shields market in 2017. This is due to the presence of regulatory bodies, such as National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and American National Standards Institute (ANSI), that develop standards related to protection against ionizing radiation. The U.S.-based Regulatory Affairs Professionals Society (RAPS) develops guidelines for regulatory professionals on behalf of International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP). ICRP also provides scientific advice to governments on radiological protection issues related to nuclear power, medical uses of ionizing radiations, and radioactive waste management.
Asia Pacific is expected to grow at a lucrative rate over the forecast period owing with increasing number of nuclear reactors being built in countries like India and China along with other factors such as growing medical tourism industry and rising awareness about benefits associated with various types of cancer treatment procedures & devices using high-LET radiations.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing awareness about radiation protection and its hazards
- Growing demand for radiation protective devices in medical industry
- Rising incidence of cancer and other diseases requiring radiation therapy
- Proliferation of nuclear power plants and other radioactive facilities worldwide
- Technological advancements in radiation shielding materials and devices
