Breast cancer is a medical condition characterized by the uncontrolled proliferation of cells within the breast, often leading to the formation of lumps. Breast cancer diagnostic devices are designed for the purpose of identifying and confirming the presence of cancerous growth within the breast tissue.
Key categories within breast cancer diagnostics include various diagnostic methods such as imaging techniques, biopsies, genomic testing, blood tests, and other relevant approaches. Biopsy, a process involving the removal of tissue or cellular samples from the body for subsequent laboratory testing, is one of the primary diagnostic techniques employed in breast cancer cases. The technologies utilized for these diagnostic procedures encompass Fluorescent In Situ Hybridization (FISH), Comparative Genomic Hybridization (CGH), Immunohistochemical (IHC) techniques, along with others. Breast cancer exhibits diverse types, including BRCA breast cancer, ER and PR breast cancer, HER2-positive breast cancer, EGFR mutation test breast cancer, and additional variants. Breast cancer diagnostics are further categorized into ionizing breast imaging technologies and non-ionizing imaging technologies. The end-users of these diagnostic services encompass hospitals and clinics, cancer research centers, diagnostic laboratories, as well as ambulatory surgical centers.
Tariffs are impacting the breast cancer diagnostics market by increasing costs of imported imaging systems, genomic testing kits, reagents, biopsy devices, and advanced laboratory equipment. Diagnostic laboratories and hospitals in North America and Europe are most affected due to reliance on imported high-value diagnostic technologies, while Asia-Pacific faces cost pressures on equipment procurement and test consumables. These tariffs are raising operational costs and slowing technology upgrades in some healthcare facilities. However, they are also encouraging local manufacturing of diagnostic kits, regional reagent production, and domestic innovation in imaging and molecular testing solutions.
The breast cancer diagnostics market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides breast cancer diagnostics market statistics, including breast cancer diagnostics industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a breast cancer diagnostics market share, detailed breast cancer diagnostics market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the breast cancer diagnostics industry. This breast cancer diagnostics market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The breast cancer diagnostics market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $5 billion in 2025 to $5.42 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.3%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rising incidence of breast cancer globally, increased awareness of early cancer screening, expansion of diagnostic imaging infrastructure, growing availability of biomarker-based tests, improvements in biopsy accuracy and safety.
The breast cancer diagnostics market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $7.28 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.7%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing adoption of precision oncology diagnostics, rising investments in AI-enabled diagnostic platforms, growing demand for minimally invasive testing, expansion of population-based screening programs, continuous advancements in molecular diagnostic technologies. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of ai-assisted imaging analysis, rising use of genomic and molecular testing, growing deployment of liquid biopsy techniques, expansion of advanced non-ionizing imaging modalities, enhanced focus on early and personalized diagnosis.
Government initiatives and funding for breast cancer are expected to drive growth in the breast cancer diagnostics market in the coming years. Such initiatives provide financial support to programs or projects that contribute to public health and economic development. These efforts play a crucial role in supporting breast cancer research, prevention, and treatment by raising awareness, promoting early detection through screening and mammography, and offering financial assistance to underserved communities for testing and treatment. For example, in its 2022-23 budget, the Australian Government Department of Health allocated $40.7 million to improve accessibility to testing and screening services for various cancers, addressing setbacks caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, and enabling timely referrals, prompt diagnosis, and early intervention. Of this, $9.7 million was specifically dedicated to breast cancer screening. Therefore, government initiatives and funding are supporting the expansion of the breast cancer diagnostics market.
Major companies operating in the breast cancer diagnostics market are focusing on AI-driven innovations to improve diagnostic accuracy, streamline workflows, and support personalized treatment planning. AI-based diagnostic platforms use machine learning and deep-learning algorithms to analyze medical imaging, pathology slides, or clinical data, providing insights and risk stratifications that aid clinical decision-making. For instance, in September 2024, Ibex Medical Analytics, an Israel-based digital pathology company, expanded its AI platform for breast cancer diagnostics by introducing a fully automated zero-click HER2 immunohistochemistry (IHC) scoring feature in its Ibex Breast HER2 module. This tool identifies invasive cancer regions, classifies HER2 expression levels (0, 1+, 2+, 3+), and supports breast cancer diagnosis and treatment decisions with enhanced accuracy and workflow efficiency.
In July 2024, Hologic Inc., a US-based healthcare technology company, acquired Endomagnetics Ltd. for $310 million. This acquisition strengthens Hologic's breast surgery portfolio by integrating Endomag's wireless localization and lymphatic tracing solutions. Endomagnetics Ltd., based in the UK, provides advanced technologies for breast cancer diagnostics, including tissue localization and lymphatic mapping solutions.
