Whole Slide Imaging Market Size

Whole Slide Imaging Market size was valued at over USD 602.7 million in 2022 and is projected to register 16.9% CAGR between 2023 and 2032. Whole slide imaging (WSI), also known as virtual microscopy or digital pathology, is a technology used in the field of pathology to create digital replicas of entire microscope slides. It involves scanning a glass slide containing a tissue sample at high resolution and converting it into a digital image that can be viewed, analysed, and shared on a computer screen. The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases and the surging need for reliable diagnostic procedures is anticipated to drive the growth of the whole slide imaging industry.

Moreover, continuous advancements in imaging technology, such as high-resolution scanning, image analysis algorithms, and artificial intelligence (AI) in medical imaging, are further augmenting the growth of the whole slide imaging market. For instance, in March 2023, Hamamatsu and Siemens Healthineers announced the distribution of NanoZoomer S360MD slide scanning system to clinical markets, an automated system for creating, viewing, and managing digital slides. The NanoZoomer System was made to help pathologists in reviewing and interpreting digital pictures of surgical pathology slides made from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded ("FFPE") tissue which is designed for in vitro diagnostic application. Moreover, rising adoption of surgical microscopes as well as video microscopes owing to the growing demand for precision medicine will further create lucrative opportunities for market expansion.
