Thyroid Collar Shield Market Insights

The radiation protective thyroid collar shield minimizes the health risk associated while undergoing an x-ray or any radiation therapy. It is essential to use these protective garments during the C-arm fluoroscopy. Concrete benefits have been noticed along with government intervention in promoting radiation safe therapy has influenced the overall thyroid collar shield market growth.

Globally, the medical radiation shielding market size will surpass USD 1.5 Billion by 2026. An increase in number of therapies and tests using medical imaging while diagnosing and treating patients will stimulate the thyroid collar shield market size.

The UK government guidelines for dental practitioners have encouraged the adoption of a thyroid collar shield where thyroid is in the primary beam. Other factors such as the increase in the usage of new imaging equipment such as CBCT, which includes the higher patient dosage along with increased cancer risk linking to dental radiography will promote safety shields in the medical industry.

In the case of oral imaging, the practitioner needs to make sure that the thyroid collar shield must be outside the primary beam as it can result in an inefficient image which may result in repeated radiography without a shield.

Novelties like silver nanoparticles infused thyroid collar shied to promote more safe and hygienic products will encourage new product development in the industry. Economical production cost along with the emergence of disposable alternatives will positively influence the thyroid collar market shield price trend.

Thyroid Collar Shield Market: By Thickness

An effective thyroid collar shield may reduce 50% of the radiation exposure among the patients. Hence, the optimum thickness for these garments should be 0.5 mm lead equivalent in case of neck protection.

The two major approaches to minimize radiation exposure among the patient and operative staff is to wear standardized protective clothing and reduce the x-rays exposure as per the ALARA principle. As Low As Reasonably Achievable principle encourages minimal fluoroscopy, increased distance from the source, and beam direction.

An optimum protection can be achieved by wearing the thyroid collar shield of 0.25 to 0.5 mm thickness which can attenuate over 90% of the radiation dose. However, inappropriate surgeon compliance regarding the radiation safety guidelines along with discomfort faced while wearing heavy lead garments may impact surgeons with orthopedic disorders.

Thyroid Collar Shield Market: By Type

Disposable and Non-disposable are two categories in the thyroid collar shield market. Both the products have their specialty as per the usage and purpose. A disposable thyroid collar shield is examined to meet all the quality standards imposed by the government. It is a more economical solution for the diagnostic centers.

Infab Corporation provides its disposable Barium Sulfate Thyroid Shields which exhibited more than 60% dose reduction during the x-ray and CT scan. These disposable alternatives also meet the hospital waste system guidelines.

Under the non-disposable thyroid collar shield category, various products come with different closure and loop. Hook and loop closure, magnetic closure, buckle closure, bib-style, and large collar are some of the product types that come in non-disposable types offered by Bar Ray.

Thyroid Collar Shield Market: By Application

Dental x-ray, MRI, CT radiation & mammography procedures, and laboratories are some of the major areas where the thyroid collar shield is widely used.

As per the health guidelines imposed by the government of different countries, it is mandatory to use a thyroid collar shield while undergoing CT scans and MRI. Under these measures, it is evident to use optimum doses when multiple examinations need to be performed to reduce risk as much as possible.

In the case of mammography, it is not mandatory but recommended to wear protective clothing. Regarding dental x-ray, it is suggested to reduce the radiation exposure level without bargaining the clinical needs associated with a dental examination.

Thyroid Collar Shield Market: By Region

The North American thyroid collar shield market is predicted to gain maximum share in the upcoming years. The rising adoption of radiology based tests to examine the patient along with an increase in the number of cancer therapies will positively drive regional growth. It is estimated that in the U.S. more than 55,000 people were examined with thyroid cancer in 2013. Thus, it is essential to adopt better radiation shielding clothing in the country. As per the American Thyroid Association recommendation, it is vital to use these protective clothing to minimize the risk factor among patients and physicians undertaking the examination regularly.

European countries like the UK and Ireland have strict guidelines pertaining to radiology. It is mandatory to opt for protective shielding while examining the patient during CT scan, MRI, and dental x-ray.

The Asia Pacific region is expected to witness the highest gains due to their higher implication in the foreign medical tourist segment. The region is widely expanding its healthcare industry to promote more foreign investors. Dentistry is one of the lucrative segment in India due to its economical treatment while compared to other countries.
