The Tissue Diagnostics Market is projected to reach $8.52 billion by 2029, at a CAGR of 7.4% from 2022 to 2029. Tissue diagnostics involves the study of tissue to diagnose disease and determine the type of the tissue, whether it’s cancerous, and the characteristics of observed cancer. Furthermore, it uses instruments such as slide staining systems, slide scanners, tissue processing systems, embedding systems, and tissue microarrays. This study is used in hospitals, reference laboratories, research institutes, pharmaceutical companies, and contract research organizations
The growth of this market is mainly attributed to the rising global prevalence of cancer, the availability of biomarkers & biomarker research for cancer diagnosis & therapy, recommendations/guidelines and programs for cancer screening, the growing number of clinical trials for cancer drugs, the availability of advanced tissue-based companion diagnostic tests, and the rising global geriatric population. Moreover, the rising focus on personalized healthcare, adoption of digital pathology & automation in tissue diagnostics, and emerging economies offer significant opportunities for market growth.
