The global digital pathology market was valued at $3,323 million in 2016, and is expected to reach $8,668 million by 2023, registering a CAGR of 14.8% during the forecast period. Digital pathology is defined as an image-based information setting enabled by computer technology that allows the management of information generated through a digital slide. Digitalization of pathology has led to the automation of tests during disease diagnosis among other applications. For instance, a single digital instrument can perform tests that were previously carried out using five instruments by pathologists. Digital pathology solutions offer scrutiny & analysis of images on a computer, high-resolution sample scanning, and online storage of digital slides, which enable pathologists to cross examine slides without physical evidences.
Efficient cost of digital pathology products, ease of virtual transportation of slides, and high efficiency of digital pathology systems are the major factors that boost the growth of the global digital pathology market. In addition, higher adoption of digital pathology as compared to conventional pathology diagnosis drives the market growth. On the other hand, barriers such as unclear reimbursement policies, dearth of skilled personnel, and unwillingness of older pathologists to adopt to new technology restrain the market growth. However, rise in initiatives towards commercialization of cost-efficient digital pathology systems is anticipated to offer profitable growth opportunities for service providers in the future.
The global digital pathology market is segmented on the basis of product, type, end user, and region. Based on product, the market is categorized into whole slide imaging, image analysis informatics, information management system storage & communication, digital IVD devices, and others (telepathology). By type, it is classified into automated hematology analyzers & blood cell counters, chromosome analyzers, FISH enumeration systems, urine sediment analyzers, immunohistochemistry image analysis applications, digital cytopathology, digital PCR, signet cell detection, and digital holographic microscopy. Depending on end user, it is fragmented into educational, clinical, pharma & biotech companies. Region wise, it is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.
