According to the United States Cancer statistics report published in 2014 by Centers of Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC), between 1999 and 2014, more than 1600 people a day, died due to
the cause of cancer. Although screening tests helps to detect cancer condition at early stage, data
from Healthy People 2020, an initiative form Department of Health and Human Services, reveals
that screening rate is still below the national targets set. Combined data collected from CDC and
National cancer institute (NCI) focus on the top 3 cancer incidences in male and female. In male
prostate cancer incidence are higher, while in females breast cancer are most dominated, followed
by lung and colon cancer respectively in both male and female.
New and advanced methods of tissue diagnosis favors the market growth
Innovation in tissue diagnostic process for the efficient diagnostic testing such as Fluorescence in
situ hybridization (FISH), Immunohistochemistry (IHC) and In situ hybridization (ISH) raises the
opportunity to grow tissue diagnostic market in future. In September 2017, researchers at the
University of Texas, developed a new way of diagnosis by creating pen named as “MasSpec Pen”,
which is handheld devices able to distinguish healthy tissue and tumor tissue in just 10 seconds,
more than 150 times quicker than existing technology. These new tool provides improvement in
cancer treatment and minimizes the chances of recurrence by offering precise diagnostic
information, which eventually favors the growth in tissue diagnostic market.
