Global Microscopy Devices Market Share (%), By Product Type, 2023

Microscopy is used across most life sciences disciplines and in academic, clinical, and commercial settings. Light microscopes are essential analytical laboratory tools, whereas stereomicroscopes provide the lowest magnification. Optical microscopes, electron microscopes, and scanning probe microscopes are some of the types of microscopy devices used in the healthcare sector. Optical microscopes are further segmented into inverted microscopes, stereomicroscopes, phase contrast microscopes, confocal scanning microscopes, near-field scanning microscopes, and other optical microscopes. The microscopy devices are mainly used in research and development activities in different industrial areas such as pharmaceuticals, electronics, life sciences, and others. The compound microscope has various types of functions, such as being used to study viruses and bacteria, in pathology labs to make an easy diagnosis of diseases, and in forensic laboratories to identify human fingerprints. The dissection microscope is used to study the topography of solid samples, dissections and microsurgical procedures, and forensic engineering. The electron microscope is mostly used in industrial and medical research for microcharacterization of a sample, tissue imaging, device testing, and mineral liberation analysis.
Market Dynamics
The increasing number of awards for miceoscope is expected to drive market growth over the forecast period. For instance, in July 2022, Surrey won US$ 0.6 million from the Core Equipment Award from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC). The new microscope allows users to see materials in three dimensions and to employ a host of other imaging techniques and fast chemical analysis, enabling new insights into the mechanisms and processes that happen within materials.
