The global biophotonics market is expected to reach USD 50.18 Billion by 2020 from USD 26.26 Billion in 2014, at a CAGR of 11.5% from 2015 to 2020. This market is primarily driven by the emergence of nanotechnology, significant technological advancements, increasing demand for home-based POC devices, aging population, and growing lifestyle diseases. Biophotonics technologies enable better imaging of tissues and other biological entities, thereby enhancing the drug discovery process and biomedical research.
The largest market segment for biophotonics market, by application is see-through imaging, however the fastest growing segment is surface imaging. There have been significant developments in the field of see-through imaging techniques in recent years, especially in drug discovery and medical diagnostics. Over the years, see-through imaging has emerged as an effective tool for in-vitro and in-vivo imaging, and become an integral part of biomedical research. However, a fundamental factor in the growth of the surface imaging market is endoscopy, which has witnessed exponential growth in recent years owing to an increased patient acceptance for minimally invasive procedures for treatment as well as diagnosis.
The market for in-vivo technology has the largest market share in 2014. There is a growing demand for in-vivo monitoring and diagnostics because of its ability to detect diseases and infections as well as find the real-time efficiency of a drug and the effectiveness of a specific treatment or response to a particular medical procedure. The market for other (non-medical) sectors is expected grow at a highest CAGR during the forecast period. As biophotonics is an emerging technology there are a lot of other areas where it is yet to be adapted such as biometrics, and biosensing; therefore, it is expected that this market will grow at a high CAGR during the forecast period.
In 2014, the Americas accounted for the largest share of the global biophotonics market. In Americas, factors such as rising incidences of chronic disorders, growing demand for non-invasive and nonionizing diagnostic modalities, and introduction of new and advanced technologies in the field of diagnostics and imaging are fueling the biophotonics market growth.
However, slow rate of commercialization is hindering the growth of this market. Considering the vast application areas, it has become very challenging for players to commercialize the biophotonics technology. Moreover, the biophotonics market is going through a slow rate of commercialization, which is primarily due to price sensitivity, low acceptance from end users, and concerns related to quality, authenticity, and reliability of products. Becton, Dickinson and Company (U.S.) is one of the key companies in this market because of its financial power, brand value, and technical expertise; it is a well-known medical technology company that serves healthcare institutions, life sciences researchers, clinical laboratories, industry and the general public. Another major company is Hamamatsu Photonics K.K. (Japan) because of its expertise in optical sensors, photodiodes, photo ICs, image sensors, and other opto-semiconductor elements. Hamamatsu has a dedicated research laboratory in Tsukuba (Japan) where research primarily related with biophotonics in the field of life sciences is conducted.
