Among these, the artificial intelligence segment secured the top-most position in terms of revenue in the global Digital Pathology market and is poised for substantial growth in future. The artificial intelligence segment  embedded digital pathology provides faster/efficient and more accurate measurements, exact quantification of tumor cell content for molecular analyses, enhanced image features, and other benefits. Thus it has increased the demand for digital pathology becoming the largest revenue holder segment in global digital pathology market.

Telepathology Segment to Remain Atop

The global Digital Pathology market is classified into clinical (telepathology, archiving, image analysis) nonclinical (education, testing, research on the basis of applications. Among these, the telepathology segment held the largest market share in global Digital Pathology market and has witnessed more demand due to factors such as possible quicker access, no need of physical slide transfer, lower threshold for consultation due to shorter turnaround time.

Pharmaceutical Companies to Ensure Revenue Maximization

The global Digital Pathology market is classified into pharmaceutical companies and hospitals on the basis of end user. Among these, the pharmaceutical companies secured the highest position in the global Digital Pathology market in terms of revenue, market share, and CAGR. Digital pathology adoption is extensive in pharmaceutical companies for faster and accurate image evaluation like for reducing cancer care lead time. Furthermore, the pharmaceutical companies are adopting Digital Pathology for drug discovery and development which is helping them manage and analyze millions of samples whilst maintaining costs and getting more time to develop viable drug candidate. These are key factors that have increased the demand of digital pathology in pharmaceutical companies.

North American Region to Witness Huge Investments

North America is the most mature markets in the global Digital Pathology market due to rising burden of rising prevalence of cancer, growing application of digital pathology in drug discovery and development, relaxation in in certain guidelines by federal government leasing to faster adoption of digital pathology, presence of digital pathology firms in countries like US and Canada such as XIFIN, Corista, Apollo Enterprise Imaging, Leica Biosystems, and others. 

The need for accurate and quicker clinical diagnosis, the need to reduce cancer care lead time, cost savings, standardization of laboratory procedures, and all pre-analytical processes has identified digital pathology as the best option, boosting the growth outlook for the global Digital Pathology Market

Rapid applications of digital pathology in all the clinical (clinical (telepathology, archiving, image analysis) and nonclinical (education, testing, research) applications are fostering progress in global digital pathology market. Advantages such as the superlative capability to measure binary or categorical features with a higher degree of precision and reproducibility, high performance across multiple clinical and non-clinical processes encourage further adoption of digital pathology. 

Digital pathology is an image-based information environment enabled by computer technology that allows for the management of information generated from a digital slide. The unique feature of digital pathology is that it maximizes the practical utility of the captured images and allows its further use for storage, viewing, annotation, and use of the images in applications including educational, research, and clinical practices.

Factors such as the growth of digital pathology and faster whole slide image scanning in recent years are paving the way for the development of the global digital pathology market.

However, technology limitations, regulatory obstacles, significant equipment cost, difficulties implementing digital pathology, and pathologist technophobia are several barriers to the adoption of digital pathology likely to hamper the global digital pathology market. Nevertheless, digital pathology is expected to become increasingly vital for the future of pathology practice expected to give a boost to the global digital pathology market. Also, the emergence of useful tools and techniques in digital pathology arena providing toxicologic pathologists with some unique and outstanding tools saving evaluation time, more quantifiable data relevant to risk assessment activities are accelerating the adoption of digital pathology anticipated to be key growth opportunity to the global digital pathology market.
