SAN FRANCISCO, April 10, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The global histology and cytology market size is expected to reach USD 30.6 billion by 2026, based on a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. It is projected to expand at a CAGR of 13.7% during the forecast period. Increasing incidence of cancer coupled with growing adoption of cytological test due to its high reliability and less invasive nature as compared to biopsy is likely to drive the growth.

Key suggestions from the report:

• Cytology testing led the market in 2018, attributed to high disease prevalence and adoption of the test for cervix screening. The segment is expected to maintain its position during the forecast period due to the recent entry of various tests and advantages over histology such as faster analysis and cost-effectiveness
• The U.S. histology and cytology market was the largest in 2018 and is expected to maintain its dominance during the forecast period due to higher awareness about screening and higher healthcare expenditure as compared to the developing countries
• Asia Pacific is projected to witness substantial growth over the next decade owing to growing investment by several clinics in the region, growing healthcare expenditure, and adoption of screening tests
• Some of the key players operating in the market are Abbott Laboratories; Becton, Dickinson and Company; F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd.; Hologic, Inc.; Life Technologies Corporation; Sysmex Corporation; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.; and Trivitron Healthcare.
