American Brain Tumor Association 2017 report cites that cancer is the second largest cause for death globally responsible for the death of approximately 8.8 million patients. World Health Organization predicts the growth of cancer incidence to reach 70% in next 20 years. Gamma knife devices faces stringent market competition by other types of radiosurgery such as Linear Accelerator Systems (LINAC) and Cyclotron. They have meritorious features in comparison to gamma knife in treating larger tumor in larger areas of brain and other body parts and precisely target only the tumor cells, causing least harm to the surrounding healthy cells.

Based on indications, the gamma knife devices market is categorized into:
Gamma knife is a radiation surgery therapy employed for the treatment of brain tumors, epilepsy, arteriovenous malformation, and trigeminal neuralgia. The procedure consists of delivering finely focused radiation of high dose on the target cells and its high degree of precision and accuracy prohibits damage to the surrounding healthy cells. It is used for the treatment of abnormalities measuring 1 inch in diameter. Malignant tumors have a big market in the indications segment as a result of rising prevalence of patients suffering with malignant cancers. Additionally gamma knife therapy finds huge application in the treatment of malignant tumors owing to its safety features and accuracy. Fractionated external radiation therapy is considered as an adjuvant therapy for the treatment of primary brain tumor. Teletherapy a kind of gamma knife radiosurgery is finding huge attraction for the treatment of ocular diseases such as choroidal melanoma and uveal melanoma. Low radiation gamma therapy is also utilized to reduce the intraocular pressure for the treatment of glaucoma. The chief players in the global gamma knife devices market are American Shared Hospital Services, Cyber Medical Corporation Limited, ET Medical Group, Elekta AB, Hokai, Huiheng Medical, Inc., Masep Infini Global, Inc., Nordion, Inc. and Varian Medical Systems, Inc.
For the purpose of this study, the global gamma knife devices market is categorized into the following regional and country specific markets:
Center for Disease Control and Prevention 2014 survey research finding claims that every year there are approximately 1.5 million cases of invasive cancer out of which around 590,000 people die due to cancer. Rising prevalence of cancer and increasing demand for non-invasive radiation therapy drives the gamma knife devices market in North America. Western Europe is a rapidly growing market due to presence of cardinal players pioneering in manufacture of gamma knife devices. Additionally the effective cancer treatment guidelines formulated by EU have favored radiation therapy as an adjuvant therapy for the treatment of cancer that adds to the market growth in Europe. Asia Pacific dominates the gamma knife devices market on account of rising prevalence of brain tumors, increasing specialty clinics providing effective cancer diagnosis, and treatment. Japan has invested huge in the research and development of the radiation therapy devices utilized for cancer treatment.
