What is digital pathology?

Digital pathology is referred to as an image-based information setting that is enabled by computer technology which allows the management of information generated via a digital slide. Digitalization of pathology has further led to the automation of tests during disease diagnosis among other applications.

A single digital device can perform tests that were previously carried out using five instruments by pathologists. These solutions offer analysis & scrutiny of images on a computer, online storage of digital slides, and high-resolution sample scanning, which helps pathologists to cross-examine slides without physical evidence.

  • The increasing efficiency of digital pathology systems, the ease of virtual transportation of slides, and the efficient cost of digital pathology products are the key factors augmenting market growth.
  • The surge in initiatives toward the commercialization of cost-effective digital pathology systems is further expected to create lucrative opportunities for market players during the review period.
  • A lack of skilled professionals and unclear reimbursement policies are expected to hamper the industry’s expansion.

Opportunities:

The digital pathology market is expected to grow rapidly in the future because of its use in many applications including diagnostics, drug development, and education. Some market drivers worth exploring are the use of AI and machine learning to improve image analysis, virtual pathology for teleconsulting, and the increasing need for remote consultations and real-time image sharing. Also, the technology has helped to enhance the accuracy of diagnosis and has also reduced costs thus making it popular in hospitals and academic institutions.

The adoption of digital pathology is significantly improving lab efficiency in several key ways:

Reduced turnaround times: Digital pathology enables pathologists to remotely access and view the diagnostic information for the primary diagnosis and reduce the time to generate reports.

Increased productivity: Some of the benefits of these AI diagnostic algorithms are that they assist pathologists in the sorting of complex cases so that they can concentrate on the more difficult samples that require the attention of a professional. More than 80% of digital pathology users have started adopting AI.

COVID-19 Impact

The COVID-19 pandemic has positively influenced the digital pathology industry. Government bodies across the globe are focusing on curbing COVID-19 with important measures, such as social distancing, nationwide lockdowns, and large-scale quarantines to prevent the spread of the coronavirus.

This pandemic has further created immense opportunities for the industry participants involved in digital pathology. For instance, the U.S. FDA’s Center for Devices and Radiological Health released an enforcement policy for remote digital pathology devices proposed for pathologists, drug administration staff, clinical laboratories, and healthcare facilities.
