The U.S. veterinary neurodegenerative disease diagnostics market size is expected to reach USD 158.44 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 7.3% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The key factors driving the market growth are growing research initiatives, the rising prevalence of neurodegenerative diseases, and support initiatives. The increasing prevalence of neurodegenerative diseases in animals is fueling rapid growth in the veterinary diagnostics sector in the U.S. Conditions like Canine Cognitive Dysfunction (CCD) and Feline Cognitive Dysfunction (FCD) are becoming more widely recognized, with evidence suggesting that nearly 73% of senior dogs and 50% of senior cats exhibit signs of cognitive decline. This heightened awareness among pet owners and veterinarians has driven demand for early and accurate diagnostic tools.
Technological innovations are propelling this sector forward. AI-enhanced imaging techniques now offer more precise interpretation of X-rays, ultrasounds, and MRIs, enabling the earlier detection of neurodegenerative diseases. Meanwhile, advanced molecular diagnostics-including PCR-based assays and next-generation sequencing-provide more accurate identification of disease markers, reflecting a broader trend toward precision medicine.
Research has also evolved significantly. Specific genetic markers once considered promising for neurodegenerative disease diagnosis have been dismissed based on newer studies, underscoring the importance of adaptable diagnostic technologies that can keep pace with shifting scientific insights. Regulatory frameworks, such as those used in bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) surveillance, demonstrate the crucial role of government oversight in disease control. These programs highlight how comprehensive monitoring and robust diagnostics are vital for maintaining animal and human health.
Beyond surveillance, progress in biomarker discovery, imaging technologies, and neurobehavioral testing continues to transform the diagnostic landscape. These advancements support earlier intervention and better disease management, driving the sector toward continuous innovation. Public awareness campaigns and advocacy efforts have also played a pivotal role, boosting investment in research and development. This surge of interest in diagnostic testing reflects a shared priority-across both veterinary and human medicine-to address neurodegenerative diseases more effectively.
