The digital pathology market is projected to reach USD 2.0 billion by 2029 from USD 1.1 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 13.1% from 2024 to 2029. The global shortage of pathologists has emerged as a critical driver for the digital pathology solutions market. Currently, over 102,000 pathologists are unevenly spread across more than 130 countries, with two-thirds concentrated in just 10 nations. This uneven distribution of pathologists across regions, where some areas manage large workloads while others face severe shortages and resulting delays, contributes significantly to the increasing demand for digital pathology solutions. In addition, market growth is fueled by advancements in image analysis algorithms, artificial intelligence (AI) applications for pattern recognition, and cloud-based solutions that enhance scalability and accessibility. However, lack of trained pathologits and high capital investment limits the adoption of digital pathology solutions.
The Digital pathology market is fairly competitive market and is dominated by key players. The major players operating in this market are Danaher Corporation (US), Koninklijke Philips N.V. (Netherlands), Hamamatsu Photonics K.K. (Japan), F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd. (Switzerland), 3DHISTECH (Hungary), Apollo Enterprise Imaging (US), XIFIN, Inc. (US), Huron Digital Pathology (Canada), Hologic, Inc. (US), Corista (US), Indica Labs Inc.
