Due to these factors, the number of cancer cases has increased drastically. Diagnostic advancement for early detection when cancer can be effectively treated increases the demand in the cancer diagnostics market. Cancer screening becomes crucial in this scenario to reduce associated mortality, further boosting the growth of the global cancer diagnostics market.
As per the World Health Organization, there were 19,292,789 newly diagnosed cancer cases in 2020 which is expected to increase to 21,618,445 with a growth rate of 12.1% by 2025. By 2020-year end, there were 7.8 million women alive who were diagnosed with breast cancer in the past five years, making it the world’s most prevalent cancer.
Growth in the Number of Diagnostic Centers
As the number of cancer cases is increasing day by day, the demand for cancer screening is also increasing, and due to limited imaging techniques available at public healthcare facilities in developing countries, numerous private diagnostic centers are expanding their branches. Besides private diagnostic establishments, government-funded diagnostic laboratories are also being established to facilitate cancer screening. The market players collaborate with existing organizations to establish or revamp cancer diagnostic facilities. Various diagnostic companies are also expanding their businesses across different geographies. Thus, growth in the number of diagnostic centers is expected to drive growth in the market.
For instance, in March 2023, The Fatima bint Mubarak Center, a brand-new, cutting-edge cancer facility from Cleveland Clinic, opened at Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi. In the United Arab Emirates and the Middle East, the new cancer hospital offers a comprehensive and revolutionary approach to cancer diagnosis and treatment. Patients won't have to fly overseas to receive the essential care and treatment, thanks to the new clinic. The Fatima bint Mubarak Center features diagnostic facilities, 24 private infusion rooms for intravenous medicine administration, and 32 exam rooms for multidisciplinary cancer consultations.

In January 2023, the United Kingdom government announced a 10-million-euro investment to develop 29 new breast cancer screening units, these units will be dedicated to reducing the breast cancer burden of the UK. Such government support initiatives and funding for breast cancer research, diagnosis, and treatment are anticipated to drive market growth for the global cancer diagnostics market.
Technological Advancements
The rapid growth of this sector can be attributed to the strong inclination of physicians towards in-vitro diagnostics products for cancer diagnosis. Significant progress has been made in the global market for cancer diagnostics, revolutionizing the detection and treatment of cancer. Advancements in liquid biopsies, next-generation sequencing technology, and molecular diagnostics have enhanced individualized therapy methods and early detection. Targeted medicines, improved patient outcomes, and fewer side effects have been made possible by biomarker identification and accompanied diagnostic testing. Furthermore, the utilization of artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms has proven to be crucial in analyzing intricate data, enabling more precise diagnosis, and forecasting of treatment outcomes. Ongoing developments in oncology within the field of in vitro diagnostics are revolutionizing cancer care and providing fresh hope in the fight against cancer. Additionally, the segment's expansion is projected to gain momentum due to the growing number of breast cancer patients worldwide.
For instance, in November 2022, Google Health announced a financial agreement with iCAD (a leading market player focused on cancer detection and medical technology development). Through this partnership, iCAD can incorporate Google Health’s mammography AI research model in its products for clinical usage. This advancement will help in better and more precise diagnosis of breast cancers.
Impact of COVID-19
Different aspects of healthcare were affected by COVID-19. The global market for cancer diagnostics experienced a notable decline as a result of government-imposed lockdowns and preventive measures across the globe. The market witnessed a reduction in cancer screening.
