Global Automated Microscopy Market is valued at approximately USD 7.1 billion in 2022 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 6.4% during the forecast period 2023-2030. An automated microscope is a cutting-edge scientific tool that improves picture acquisition. Unlike traditional microscopes, which require human adjustments and image capturing, automated microscopes are outfitted with advanced technology such as motorized stages, focus controllers, and digital imaging systems. These characteristics allow researchers to accurately regulate the microscope’s position, focus, and magnification, frequently using computer software. An automated microscope produces high-resolution digital images or even time-lapse recordings of specimens, which can be saved and processed for a variety of applications, including biological research and medical diagnostics. The Automated Microscopy Market is expanding because of factors such as increased use of automated microscopes in life science research, researchers’ strong preference for automated microscopes and rising prevalence of chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and Alzheimer’s disease.
The automation of microscopy operations has improved the accuracy and efficiency of disease detection. Automated microscopes can rapidly evaluate huge amounts of biological samples with little human intervention, lowering the chance of error and expediting the diagnosis process. For instance according to a study by the National Library of Medicine in 2022 states that integrating automated image acquisition with a suitable artificial intelligence algorithm in the device for diagnosis considerably boosts its potential as a diagnostic tool in resource-limited settings. In addition, by focusing on high-throughput capabilities, advanced software integration, user-friendliness, and value-added services, companies can capitalize on the growing market opportunities for efficient and automated scientific methods. For instance, According to FE Healthcare.com, with artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled automated digital microscopy, a pathologist’s sample evaluation time can be reduced from 5 to 10 minutes to 30 seconds. However, the high cost of automated microscopes stifles market growth throughout the forecast period of 2023-2030.
The key regions considered for the Global Automated Microscopy Market study includes Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. North America dominated the market in 2022. This can be attributed to regions robust R&D Spending, for instance, according to National Science Foundation, the United States alone spends over 700 billion USD on R&D annually with a significant portion dedicated to life science and microscopic research, major companies focusing on automation and efficiency and concentration of renowned research institutions such as Harvard, MIT and Stanford. Asia Pacific is expected to grow significantly over the forecast period, owing to factors such as the booming pharmaceutical industry, technological advancements, government initiatives such as “Make in China” and “Digital India” and the presence of various research institutions in the region.
