In contrast, the POC tests provide rapid results that drive global market growth. For Instance, in March 2022, Randox Laboratories Ltd. Introduced VeraSTAT-V and VeraSTAT in its point-of-care diagnostics portfolio for equine health. The market players are accelerating product launches that are innovative and effective in animal diagnostic procedures, enhancing the adoption of these services and propelling market share growth. The introduction of advanced diagnostic techniques like molecular diagnostics, imaging modalities, and POC testing has significantly expanded the capabilities of diagnosing animal diseases. 

MARKET RESTRAINTS

The high costs associated with veterinary healthcare significantly hinder market growth.

In addition, the unavailability of infrastructure and veterinary healthcare centers for animals in some regions worldwide is hampering the market's growth rate. Furthermore, a lack of awareness among people regarding the available treatment options and a scarcity of veterinary professionals are impeding the veterinary diagnostics market growth. The presence of stringent regulations regarding the approval of diagnostic procedures and products is a significant challenge for the manufacturers due to time consumption, leading to launch delays.
