Live cell imaging involves the study of living cells though the use of images acquired from imaging systems such as microscopes and high-content screening systems, to monitor cellular processes and internal structures in real time, and over time. It has become analytical tool for gaining critical insights into the fundamental nature of tissue and cellular function. Globally, increasing incidence of cancer, growing usage of high-content screening techniques in drug discovery, and government funding for cell-based research are the prime growth drivers of global live cell imaging market. In addition, application of live cell imaging techniques in personalized medicine and emerging economies such as China, India and others will create new opportunities for global live cell imaging market. However, higher cost, and lack of skilled professionals are the key restraints for global live cell imaging market.
