Global Whole Slide Imaging Market Overview
Introduction:
Whole slide imaging (WSI) is an advanced digital imaging technology. It is used by pathology departments across the world. WSI commonly known as virtual microscopy involves the acquisition of high-resolution digital images representing entire tissue sections from glass slides, on a computer monitor. A typical WSI system contains microscopic optical components, focusing unit for the camera, and illumination systems connected to the computer. The computer system is fortified with specialized software for analyzing and viewing the digital images of the glass slide. The application of whole slide imaging systems in therapeutics has made it possible for pathologists and physicians to collect crucial information quickly. This confirms that the remedial measures prescribed based on this information are accurately and timely, thereby improving quality and survival rates of life of patients.
Drivers and Restraints:
Increasing demand for high-speed and high-resolution digital images in pathological laboratories, patient safety, workflow efficiency, and diagnostic accuracy, have increased the need for WSI systems. According to data published by the American Cancer Society, in 2018, approximately 1.7 Mn new cancer cases are projected to be diagnosed in the U.S. alone. This number can intensely decrease with early diagnosis, which can be achieved through advancements in digital pathology. Thus, the growing demand for cancer diagnosis is estimated to further drive the growth of the global whole slide imaging market. Also, innovation in digital imaging technologies has enhanced the quality of diagnostic tools. Better image analysis with the help of digital slide scanners and imaging software is another factor boosting the growth of the target market in clinical laboratories. However, the high cost of maintaining and purchasing WSI systems is one of the reasons hindering the growth of the global market. Moreover, the requirement for large and secure storage systems, regulatory barriers, and lack of standardization of imaging formats are some of the barriers in the adoption of WSI systems.
Segmentation:
The whole slide imaging market is segmented based on technology, application, end-user, and region.
Based on technology, the whole slide imaging market is segmented into scanners, IT infrastructure, viewer, and image management system. Based on the application, the target market is classified into telepathology, cytopathology, immunohistochemistry, and hematopathology. Based on end-user, the target market is segmented into education, research, and clinical.
Based on the region the whole slide imaging market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. The Asia-Pacific market is exhibiting the highest CAGR, due to the same factors responsible for the growth of the global market, such as growing research on drug discovery and awareness about the benefits of WSI. The market for whole slide imaging is increasing every year and producing a large number of pathology specimens each year, owing to the presence of a large population base. Thus, the acceptance rate of whole slide imaging in the region has also raised and is anticipated to rise in the same manner over the forecast period.
Key Players:
The key players operating the whole slide imaging market involves Definiens AG, Hamamatsu Photonics KK, Indica Labs, Inspirata, Leica Biosystems GmbH, Mikroscan Technologies, Inc., Nikon Corporation, Olympus Corporation, Philips Healthcare, and Ventana Medical Systems, Inc. Prominent players operating in the target market are focusing on strategic partnerships as well as the launching of the products to gain a competitive edge in the target market. For instance, in October 2018, in AstraZeneca strengthened and expanded the oncology development and commercialization collaboration with Innate Pharma.
