Digital Pathology Market Dynamics

Increasing Adoption of Digital Pathology to Enhance Lab Efficiency Drives the Growth of the Digital Pathology Market

The adoption of digital pathology has been steadily increasing in recent years, and it has been driving the growth of the digital pathology market. Digital pathology involves the digitization of glass slides and enables the storage, management, and analysis of pathology images on a computer or other digital devices.

The increasing adoption of digital pathology is the potential to enhance laboratory efficiency. Traditional pathology practices involve the use of physical glass slides, which require manual handling, storage, and transportation. This process can be time-consuming and prone to errors. Digital pathology eliminates the need for physical slides and allows pathologists to access and analyze images remotely, leading to improved workflow efficiency and faster turnaround times for diagnosis.

For instance, in March 2023, Hamamatsu Photonics, a global leader in imaging technology, announces the release of the new NanoZoomer S20MD Slide scanner system. This exciting new device was developed to provide clinical pathologists additional flexibility in their laboratory workflow.

Increasing Applications in Companion Diagnostics and Drug Development Also Drive the Growth of the Digital Pathology Market

Companion diagnostics refers to the use of diagnostic tests to identify patients who are likely to benefit from a specific therapeutic treatment. Digital pathology plays a crucial role in companion diagnostics by enabling the analysis of tissue samples and biomarkers to determine a patient's eligibility for targeted therapies. 

For instance, in February 2023, Roche, a pharmaceutical and diagnostics company announced that it has expanded its collaboration with Janssen Biotech Inc. to create companion diagnostics for targeted therapies, further strengthening research and innovation activities.

Digital pathology platforms allow for accurate and standardized assessment of biomarkers, such as genetic mutations or protein expression, which are essential for guiding treatment decisions. The ability to digitize and analyze these samples efficiently enhances the development and implementation of companion diagnostics, leading to improved patient outcomes. Digital pathology also enhances the ongoing focus on advancing drug development and personalized medicine.

The High Cost of Digital Pathology Systems Will Hamper the Growth of the Market. 

The high cost of digital pathology systems can pose a challenge to the growth of the market. The initial investment required to implement digital pathology infrastructure, including slide scanners, image analysis software, storage systems, and communication platforms, can be substantial. Additionally, ongoing maintenance and software updates can add to the overall cost.

The high cost of digital pathology systems can deter some healthcare organizations, particularly smaller clinics, and laboratories with limited budgets, from adopting this technology. Cost considerations can also affect the decision-making process for institutions that are already using traditional pathology methods and need to weigh the benefits of transitioning to digital pathology.

Digital Pathology Market Segment Analysis

The global digital pathology market is segmented based on product, application, type, technology, end-user, and region.

The Software Segment Accounted for Approximately 37.9% of the Digital Pathology Market Share

The software segment is expected to dominate the market share within the digital pathology market. This is primarily due to the increasing demand for advanced software solutions that enable efficient image analysis, storage, and collaboration in digital pathology workflows. Software plays a crucial role in converting digital pathology images into a format that can be easily accessed, analyzed, and shared among pathologists and other healthcare professionals.

For instance, in January 2023, Deciphex, an Irish-based software company announced the rollout of its Automated Image Quality Control (QC) for digital research pathology. The software company, which focuses on developing digital pathology-based software and services for clinical and research pathology, noted the launch of Automated Image QC as a further step as part of its mission to integrate and enhance Pathologists’ capability to deliver their skills at scale.

Software platforms equipped with advanced algorithms and artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities assist pathologists in analyzing and interpreting digital pathology images. These software solutions can automate tasks such as tissue segmentation, cell counting, and detection of specific biomarkers, enhancing efficiency and accuracy in pathology diagnostics.

For instance, in March 2023, Aiosyn, a software company that develops AI-powered pathology software, launched its first product that assists digital pathology labs across research, diagnostics, and pharma to improve their quality control (QC) process. AiosynQC is an AI-powered algorithm that automatically scans for the most common artifacts that occur during the heterogeneous pre-analytical process.
