Tissue diagnostic refers to a medical procedure that uses instruments to remove and stain tissue that must be sent to a laboratory or pathology department for documentation of what was excised for patient care (for tissue diagnostics). This offers measurements and descriptions, including any abnormalities, and an interpretation (or diagnosis) of health or disease status, under applicable legislation.
The main types of products in tissue diagnostic are consumables, antibodies, kits, reagents, probes, instrument, slide staining system, scanner and tissue processing system. The antibodies are used for the detection of infections, recognition of allergies, and the measurement of hormones and other biological markers in the blood in tissue diagnostics. The technologies used in tissue diagnostic are immunohistochemistry (IHC), in situ hybridization (ISH), digital pathology and workflow management and special staining to detect diseases such as breast cancer, gastric cancer, lymphoma, prostate cancer and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Tissue diagnostic is mostly used in hospitals, research laboratories, pharmaceutical companies, and contract research organizations.
Tariffs are impacting the tissue diagnostic market by increasing costs of imported antibodies, reagents, scanners, microscopes, and automated staining systems used in pathology laboratories. Hospitals and research laboratories in North America and Europe are most affected due to dependence on imported high-value diagnostic equipment, while Asia-Pacific faces pricing pressure on consumables and imaging systems. These tariffs are raising laboratory operating costs and slowing equipment upgrades. However, they are also encouraging local manufacturing of diagnostic reagents, regional assembly of instruments, and greater investment in domestic diagnostic technology capabilities.
The tissue diagnostic market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides tissue diagnostic market statistics, including tissue diagnostic industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a tissue diagnostic market share, detailed tissue diagnostic market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the tissue diagnostic industry. This tissue diagnostic 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 tissue diagnostic market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $6.38 billion in 2025 to $7.25 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing cancer diagnostic volumes, expansion of hospital pathology laboratories, growing adoption of immunohistochemistry techniques, rising use of automated diagnostic instruments, increased availability of advanced reagents.
The tissue diagnostic market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $11.97 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.4%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing demand for precision diagnostics, rising adoption of ai-assisted pathology tools, expansion of personalized medicine initiatives, growing investments in digital healthcare infrastructure, increasing focus on diagnostic accuracy and turnaround time. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of digital pathology platforms, rising use of automated tissue staining systems, growing integration of ai-based image analysis, expansion of multiplex tissue assays, enhanced focus on workflow standardization.
The increasing incidence of cancer is expected to drive the growth of the tissue diagnostic market in the coming years. Cancer begins when genetic changes cause cells to grow uncontrollably, destroying body tissue and forming a mass known as a tumor, which can be either cancerous or benign. Various factors, including genetic mutations, carcinogens, smoking, obesity, radiation, and hormones, can lead to the development of cancer. As cancer cases rise, the demand for diagnostic procedures like tissue diagnostics will grow, as these are essential in determining the disease's progression. For example, in February 2024, the World Health Organization, a Switzerland-based United Nations agency, projected that new cancer cases would rise to over 35 million by 2050, marking a 77% increase from the estimated 20 million cases in 2022. Thus, the rising cancer incidence is fueling the expansion of the tissue diagnostic market.
The technological advancements, particularly the integration of artificial intelligence (AI), are influencing the tissue diagnostic market. AI is employed to analyze medical images and pathological data, enhancing the accuracy and efficiency of disease detection and classification. For instance, in 2023, Qritive introduced the Qai Prostate, an AI-powered prostate cancer detection tool, providing pathologists with advanced capabilities for detecting and classifying malignant and benign tumor locations in biopsy tissue samples. This integration of AI represents a strategic move to improve precision in cancer diagnosis and treatment within the tissue diagnostic market.
In February 2024, F. Hoffmann-La Roche AG, a Switzerland-based healthcare technology company, entered into a partnership with PathAI Inc. Through this collaboration, Roche and PathAI seek to strengthen digital pathology capabilities by embedding artificial intelligence-driven image analysis into Roche's pathology workflows, thereby accelerating diagnostic insights and enhancing support for research activities and clinical decision-making. PathAI Inc., a United States-based technology company, focuses on developing artificial intelligence and machine learning solutions for pathology with the objective of improving diagnostic accuracy, operational efficiency, and scalability in disease detection and analysis.
