Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, molecular diagnostics mergers/acquisition transactions and product launches for infectious disease testing are indicating a pivot toward a new direction or an enhancement of portfolios. The emergence of saliva sample testing and the transition to PCR-based syndromic and direct-to-consumer testing for respir...

There is a growing demand for mobile imaging equipment in low and middle-income countries due to the limited financial resources to procure, operate, and maintain expensive medical imaging equipment. Other challenges include irregular power supply, poor network connectivity, inadequate site infrastructure, and delays because of the geographical dis...

Today, the healthcare industry is focused toward patient centric care and preventative healthcare. Preventative healthcare involves regular screening and diagnosis for diseases before the condition becomes fatal. Early diagnosis improves the clinical outcome of the patients, reduces emergency visits, and subsequently healthcare costs. Usually, ear...

This research analyzes how point-of-care (PoC) diagnostics is evolving from simple tests to decentralized, connected, and clinically actionable testing platforms across hospitals, outpatient settings, homes, and pharmacies.The study assesses key technology shifts, including rapid molecular testing, lateral flow assays, microfluidics, biosensors, sm...

Smartphone-based point-of-care (POC) diagnostics are rapidly emerging as medical diagnostics, enabling remote or self-monitoring tools for general wellness and a range of health conditions. Smartphones enable low-cost, rapid, and handy POC diagnostics. Intrinsic sensors of smartphones or extrinsic sensing devices working with intelligent data analy...

This study provides an overview of the global point-of-care testing (POCT) industry, which refers to any routine or specialized lab pathology testing conducted rapidly, on-site/near the site of the patient, where care or treatment is provided. COVID-19 radicalization is changing the global diagnostics landscape. Consolidation trends, structural s...

Across the world, women live longer than men. The reason behind the difference between male and female life expectancy is unclear, but it seems related partially to biological advantages and partially to environmental and behavioral factors. Even though women outlive men, they are more prone to suffering from ill health and other age-related diseas...

In this research deliverable, Frost & Sullivan’s senior analyst team across the healthcare sector provides bold perspectives and predictions for the industry in 2016. The markets covered include pharmaceuticals and biotech, medical devices, medical imaging, and healthcare IT, amongst others. The analysis captures the impact of trends that are expec...

Reduced turnaround time and potential benefits of immediate diagnosis have resulted in an increased adoption of POCT in hospitals and physician office laboratories. However, whether POC tests replace traditional laboratory tests is a question still being debated in the scientific community. This study provides the market overview, market engineerin...
