In addition, the report explores emerging opportunities in the Digital Pathology market.
Digital Pathology enables laboratories to provide results of tests and diagnoses via digital means and is gaining popularity as advancements in healthcare technology are taking over the healthcare infrastructure across the world. The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a hike of demand for Digital Pathology as they were compatible with the social distancing and lockdown norms.
Increasing technological proliferation, rapid advancements in Digital Pathology, increasing demand for quality treatment and diagnostics, increasing prevalence of deadly diseases, and rising demand for efficient laboratory testing are some major factors that propel the Digital Pathology market potential over the forecast period.
However, high costs and lack of skilled professionals will hamper the Digital Pathology market growth through 2028 and are expected to slow down the overall market.
The COVID-19 pandemic led to lockdown restrictions and social distancing which limited outdoor activity to a major extent and had an adverse impact on most of life aspects and businesses as well. However, this was not the case with the Digital Pathology market which saw an increase in demand in 2020 as coronavirus infections plagued the world.
Digital pathology saw a rise in popularity amidst the COVID-19 lockdown restrictions as testing was important but conventional methods proved to be harmful and risked infections among healthcare professionals and hence propelled the demand for Digital Pathology solutions on a global scale.
As the world returns to normal the Digital Pathology market is also expected to gain potential over the post-pandemic era and we are expected to see growth at a stellar CAGR through 2028.
Increasing Demand for Lab Efficiency
Technological proliferation has increased in all aspects of life and even in labs, digital pathology is helping cut costs and increasing efficiency and productivity. Faster pathology results can facilitate better diagnostic and better treatment opportunities and these factors are subsequently driving the demand for the Digital Pathology market growth through the forecast period. The COVID-19 pandemic further bolstered the demand for Digital Pathology as it was deployed to contain the infection spread among healthcare professionals under lockdown restrictions.
High Costs to Hinder market
Digital Pathology solutions are costly and this is a major factor that restrains the adoption of these systems in healthcare infrastructure across the globe. This factor will major drag down growth in emerging economies like India and China where spending potential is less and hence will slow down the overall growth of the Digital Pathology market over the forecast period. Apart from this lack of trained individuals to operate these advanced systems will also have a restraining effect on the Digital Pathology market through 2028.
The global Digital Pathology market is segregated based on type, product type, application, end user, and region.
By Product, the market is divided into Scanners, Software, Communication Systems, and Storage Systems. The scanners segment is anticipated to emerge as the most lucrative one over the forecast period. These devices are expensive and essential in digital pathology hence their value share is high in the global Digital Pathology marketplace and this stance will be maintained over the forecast period as well.
By Application, the Digital Pathology market is segmented into Drug Discovery, Disease Diagnosis, Teleconsultation, and Training & Education. The drug discovery segment is anticipated to give a dominant outlook over the forecast period. Rising demand for drugs and increasing research and development activity across the world for new pharmaceuticals are expected to be prominent factors driving demand for this segment through 2028.

In the pathology field, digital pathology is a new technique. The digital pathology helps to view, manage, share, and analyze the sample by converting the glass slide of the virtual microscope into digital slides on a computer. This advancement was possible partly with virtual microscopy, a technique that successfully posted the image and transmitted it through a connected network. The data-rich images form the foundation of maintaining the patients’ electronic health records and assemble the distributed data to form a central database. Thus, the increasing demand for digital pathology is expected to boost the market growth in the near future.
