As to our report, the size of the global digital pathology market was worth USD 463.5 Million in 2020 and is estimated to be growing at a CAGR of 11.66%, to reach USD 804.3 Million by 2025.
Digital pathology is the technique of analyzing high-resolution digitized histological images, which can then use calculation tools and algorithms. Digital pathology also provides an image-based information environment that allows computer technology to manage the information generated by digital transparency. The field of digital pathology and full transparency digital image evaluation (WSI) has seen a massive increase in recent years. The speed and complexity of the equipment have been improved and are providing a stable application platform for performing routine assessments and essential morphological characterization.
According to World Health Organization, only a few countries have pathology services available in public sectors. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has given Philips Digital Pathology clearance as primary surgical pathology, which is advantageous for Philips. The FDA has approved the first whole slide imaging system for digital pathology to make the pathologists read and make clinical diagnosis strictly from digital images. However, pathology plays a vital role in performing laboratory tests. The whole slide imaging system is inferior to the light microscope.
COVID-19 Impact on the global digital pathology market:
COVID 19 outbreak has set new challenges for the market key players. The pandemic has impacted positively on the digital pathology services. Digital pathology is playing a vital role in providing safeguarding clinical services to patients. Also, in the current situation, pathology-based research has a profound impact on market shares. The digital pathology approaches are a new diagnosis procedure that evaluates surgical pathology slides from the formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue (FFPE). In the peak time of the COVID 19 pandemic, the researchers have found great approaches with digital pathology in contacting the patients without the need to direct contact. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Philips IntelliSite Pathology Solution to readily these consumer monitors. Also, FDA has approved other digital pathology solutions for the emergency use of COVID 19 cases. By 2021, the market shares are to hit the highest CAGR.
MARKET DRIVERS:
Majorly factors like an increased focus on improving the workflow and demand for faster diagnostic tools for chronic diseases like cancer, growing old people population, and rising commonness of chronic disease are expected to boost up the growth of the global digital pathology market.
Additionally, the rise in the prevalence to promote quality services for poor people, advanced technology such as digital imaging, computerization, robotic light microscopy, and multiple fiber optics communications are further excelling the market growth. Furthermore, the increasing use of scanners in pathology labs and the launch of innovative products in the medical sector to promote better diagnostic procedures are also leveraging the demand of the global digital pathology market.
MARKET RESTRAINTS:
In the present situation, reimbursements failures, scarcity of expert staff, and the reluctance of older pathologists to choose new technologies hinder the growth of the digital pathology market. Insufficient infrastructure or equipment is also impeding the growth of this market.
MARKET OPPORTUNITIES:
Growing initiatives for the commercial exploitation of profitable digital pathology systems are likely to provide service providers growth opportunities during the forecast period.
Technological advancements and an increasing number of research and development operations in digital pathology are to create benefits for the stakeholders in the market during the forecast period.
