This study covers the market dynamics and trends in major countries that are expected to influence the current market scenario and future status of the Global Digital Pathology Market over the forecast period.
The Global Digital Pathology Market is growing with the rapid pace; mainly due technologically advanced diagnostic tools for the chronic diseases such as cancer has upsurged the demand for digital pathology. According to a recent study report published by the Market Research Future, The global digital pathology market is booming and expected to gain prominence over the forecast period growing rapidly. The market is forecasted to demonstrate a spectacular growth by 2022, surpassing its previous growth records in terms of value with a striking CAGR during the anticipated period (2017 – 2022).
With the evolution of information technology in the past few years, a rapid change has being observed in the practice of pathology. Various novel techniques have been implemented, primarily in the form of digital imaging and Telepathology (TP).Digital pathology is a branch which can be defined as the electronic capture, management, analysis and distribution of gross or microscopic specimens. It encompasses the use of digital imaging as well as TP. Digital pathology has a wide spectrum of applications that includes primary diagnosis, intraoperative diagnosis, consultation, quality assurance, archiving, research and academic studies. This technique helps in speeding up the process of diagnosis and further treatment. It also helps in research procedures by offering an easy access to the previously stored digital information. As per the Royal College of Pathologists, in the UK alone pathologists carry out 121,000 autopsies each year which has supported the market growth.
The market is expected grow with the same trends during the forecast period. The major drivers will be rapid technological advancements in digital pathology system such as advancements in digital imaging, robotic light microscopy, and multiple fiber optic communications among others. Moreover, growing prevalence of chronic conditions, that has expected to uplift the demand for digital pathology in order to improve existing patient diagnostic imaging measures and reduce high cost associated with the traditional diagnostics methods. For instance, as per National Pathology Programme, nearly 800 million tests are being performed annually which is equal to 14 for each person in England and Wales. Additionally, increasing R&D applications of static and dynamic systems is fostering the market growth of digital pathology market.
