The Digital Pathology Market size was estimated at $685.43 billion in 2020, growing at a CAGR of 8.2% during the forecast period 2021-2026. Digital pathology encompasses the collecting, management, exchange, and interpretation of pathology data, including slides and data, in a digital setting. Scanning is used to capture digital pathology images, and robotic microscopy can be used to get whole slide imaging / virtual microscopy on an entire histological (microscopic) glass slide. When glass slides are scanned with a scanning instrument, a high-resolution digital image is produced that may be viewed on a computer screen or mobile device. The increasing adoption of digital pathology to improve lab efficiency, the rising prevalence of cancer, and the growing application of digital pathology in drug development and companion diagnostics, as well as the reduction of high costs associated with conventional diagnostics, are all contributing to the market's growth. However, in the approaching years, a scarcity of qualified pathologists is projected to stifle market expansion for the period 2021-2026.
