Digital pathology comprises the gaining, organizing, sharing, and interpretation of pathology information. The process involves converting glass slides into digital pathology slides using scanning tools. The generated digital slide image is used for high-resolution viewing, interpretation, and image analysis.
The digital pathology market is segmented on the basis of product, type, application, end user, and geography. By geography, the market is broadly segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle East & Africa, and South & Central America. This report offers insights and in-depth analysis of the market with an emphasis on parameters such as market trends and market dynamics, and the competitive analysis of the globally leading market players.

Computerization, robotic light microscopy, multiple fiber-optic communications, and digital imaging are among the technologies contributing to the modernization of digital pathology. Healthcare information technology (IT) helps physicians in maintaining optimal workflow, along with allowing them to meet the continuously changing patient expectations. The Aperio ePathAccess software offered by Leica Biosystems enables users to share digital pathology images and case data with experts outside the IT network. Further, frequent advancements in whole-slide imaging (WSI) technology, software applications, LIS/LIMS interface, and high-speed networking are allowing pathologists to fully integrate digital pathology into their workflows. Further, the growing use of microarrays and predictive models, such as API algorithms and hybrid models, is bolstering the demand for digital image analysis. A computer-aided diagnosis integrates image processing with the concepts of physics and mathematics, and computational algorithms for disease diagnosis, anatomical evaluation, and disease progression quantification and risk assessment. Thus, the increasing popularity of computer-aided systems is supporting the digital pathology market growth.
Based on product, the digital pathology market is segmented into scanner, software, storage, and communication system. The scanner segment is further bifurcated into integrated and standalone. The scanner segment held the largest market share in 2022. However, the software segment is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Digital pathology software solutions are used for image analysis and data restoring. Companies such as Visiopharm and Indica Labs provide software and solutions for digital pathology.
