The global Clinical Diagnostic Market is estimated to be valued at US$83.34 Bn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 6.1% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market Overview:
The clinical diagnostic market involves diagnostic testing services, devices, equipment, and consumables used for clinical laboratory testing of patient samples such as blood, urine, and tissue, to obtain medical information. Clinical laboratory tests aid in disease prevention, screening, diagnosis, treatment, and management by identifying normal and abnormal levels or components in body fluids, tissues, or other samples.
Market key trends:
The clinical diagnostic market is witnessing a growing adoption of Point-of-Care (POC) diagnostic devices. POC tests provide fast and reliable results outside a laboratory setting, at the site of patient care. They are increasingly used in hospitals, clinics, home, and other alternate care sites for rapid diagnosis and treatment. Growing integration of IoT and AI technologies in clinical diagnostic testing will allow early detection of diseases and condition monitoring for positive health outcomes. Integration of AI and machine learning can automate data collection, analysis, diagnosis and decision making. This will help reduce costs and improve the efficiency of clinical testing.
Market Key Trends:
The Global Clinical Diagnostic Market is seeing increased adoption of advanced technologies like point-of-care testing, molecular diagnostics and digital pathology. Molecular diagnostic tests analyze nucleic acids like DNA or RNA for diagnostic purposes and are gaining popularity due to their high sensitivity and specificity. Point-of-care testing allows for quick diagnosis and treatment by bringing tests closer to patients. Digital pathology uses digital scanning of slides to provide faster analysis and diagnosis compared to traditional microscope examination. The use of such advanced technologies is driving more accurate and timely diagnoses in the clinical diagnostic market.
