Anatomical pathology equipment and consumables play a crucial role in diagnosing diseases, focusing on the examination of tissues and organs at molecular, biochemical, and microscopic levels. Anatomical pathology, as a branch of science, involves the detailed study of diseases through the analysis of tissues and organs.
The primary products and services in anatomical pathology include instruments, consumables, and services. Instruments utilized in anatomical pathology, such as Wintrobe's tube and Westergren's tube, are employed for various processes in pathology. The applications of anatomical pathology span disease diagnosis, cancer detection, analysis of other diseases, and medical research. These products and services are utilized by diverse end-users, including hospital laboratories, clinical laboratories, and other relevant entities involved in pathology and diagnostics.
The anatomical pathology equipment and consumables market research report are one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides anatomical pathology equipment and consumables market statistics, including anatomical pathology equipment and consumables industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a anatomical pathology equipment and consumables market share, detailed anatomical pathology equipment and consumables market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the anatomical pathology equipment and consumables industry. This anatomical pathology equipment and consumables market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The anatomic pathology equipment and consumables market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $24.54 billion in 2024 to $26.31 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.2%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to the increasing prevalence of infectious diseases, strong economic growth in emerging markets, technological advances, and an increase in demand for personalized medicines.
The anatomic pathology equipment and consumables market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $34.08 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.7%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the growing reliance on biomarker-based pathology tests, the rise in pathology training programs, and the growth in chronic diseases. Major trends in the forecast period include focusing on the launch of new products, investing in collaborations, focusing on the use of AI in pathology equipment, and investing in manufacturing of 3D printing equipment.
The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, particularly cancer, is anticipated to enhance the demand for the anatomic pathology equipment and consumables market. For example, reports from the National Health Service (NHS), a UK-based government organization, indicate that in the 2022-2023 period, 58% of cancers were diagnosed at an early stage (stage one or two), marking an increase from approximately 56% before the pandemic. Consequently, the global rise in cancer incidence is expected to further drive demand for anatomic pathology equipment and consumables.
The increasing number of approvals for personalized medicines is expected to boost the anatomical pathology equipment and consumables market in the future. Personalized medicines are therapeutic products or treatments specifically designed for individual patients, based on their genetic, biomarker, phenotypic, or psychosocial traits, which can predict their response to treatment. Anatomical pathology equipment and consumables play a vital role in personalized medicine by providing detailed molecular and genetic profiling of patient samples, thereby enabling tailored therapeutic approaches that align with individual disease characteristics. For instance, a report from the Personalized Medicine Coalition (PMC), a U.S.-based nonprofit organization, revealed that personalized medicines accounted for 35% of newly approved new molecular entities (NMEs) in 2021. With 12 new approvals in 2022, they have consistently represented at least a quarter of new drug approvals over the past eight years, a significant rise from under 10% a decade ago. Thus, the increasing approvals of personalized medicines are driving the anatomical pathology equipment and consumables market.
Companies within the anatomical pathology equipment and consumables market are increasingly investing in innovative technologies to enhance efficiency and reduce test durations. Entities such as Biogenex have introduced automated staining technologies such as Xmatrx and i6000 diagnostics, catering to diverse laboratory requirements. The Matrix systems provide standardized procedures from baking to the final glass coverslip for staining, aiming to prevent cross-contamination. On the other hand, the i6000 diagnostics system, geared for molecular pathology labs, is a high-throughput system specialized for the special staining of clinical samples. It boasts a staining capacity of 200 slides within an 8-hour timeframe, processing 60 slides in just 3 hours.
Major players in the anatomical pathology equipment and consumables market are rolling out advanced systems such as the BenchMark ULTRA PLUS system, designed to streamline lab operations for personnel. This system represents an evolution of the established BenchMark ULTRA, focusing on improving the laboratory experience through integrated hardware, software, and assay functionalities. For instance, in June 2022, Roche, a Swiss-based pharmaceutical company, launched the BenchMark ULTRA PLUS system, a novel slide tissue staining system. This technology modernizes cancer diagnostics by automating previously manual processes, applying chemical solutions to tissue samples. It assists healthcare professionals in identifying crucial cell markers essential for making therapeutic decisions. The system includes features such as user-friendly software, remote monitoring capabilities, an integrated touchscreen interface, and environmentally conscious waste management and packaging.
In September 2022, Epredia, a US-based cancer diagnostics company, successfully acquired MMFrance and Laurypath for an undisclosed amount. This strategic acquisition aligns with Epredia's strategy to expand its cancer diagnostics business. MMFrance and Laurypath, both established in 1987 and based in France, are manufacturers of anatomical pathology products. The integration of MMFrance and Laurypath into Epredia is expected to contribute to the company's growth and capabilities in the field of cancer diagnostics and anatomical pathology.
