Global molecular diagnostics market is projected to witness a CAGR of 10.07% during the forecast period 2024-2031, growing from USD 14.31 billion in 2023 to USD 30.83 billion in 2031.
Molecular diagnostics help patients and healthcare professionals make educated decisions about their treatment, which leads to positive results, by offering vital information. Molecular diagnostics techniques have shown to be useful in clinical settings since they allow sensitive and quick detection methods, which makes it easier to monitor a variety of infectious disorders, including cancer and other chronic illnesses. The market for molecular diagnostics is expected to rise due to the growing illness, rising numbers of pathogens and even rising geriatric population, which is more prone to disease and hence needs continuous diagnosis. Numerous medical diseases have been effectively identified by the widespread use of molecular diagnostics, including genetic testing, microbiology, STDs, oncology, blood screening, virology, tissue type, and prenatal diagnosis. Using the study of DNA, RNA, or proteins, laboratory-based molecular diagnostics are vital instruments used for the detection of human diseases. Molecular diagnostic kits and reagents are tailored according to the desired use and contain probes that are unique to certain bacterial, viral, or parasitic sequences. The market for molecular diagnostics is expected to rise due to the growing use of biomarker-specific testing kits, which are essential before starting any kind of medication or treatment. The USFDA, for instance, granted 510(k) clearance for Hologic, Inc.’s Panther Fusion SARS-CoV-2/Flu A/B/RSV assay in May 2023. This assay distinguishes between the four most prevalent respiratory viruses by molecular diagnostic testing.
Market Growth Due to Rising Prevalence of Chronic Ailments
The market for molecular diagnostics is expanding significantly due to the increased incidence of chronic illnesses. Aging populations, changing lifestyles, and environmental factors are all contributing to the rise in chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular ailments. For these illnesses to be managed and treated effectively, sophisticated diagnostic methods are required. In this setting, molecular diagnostics, which use advanced technology to analyze genetic, genomic, and proteomic data, are essential. Through the identification of particular biomarkers and genetic alterations linked to chronic disorders, they facilitate the timely and accurate detection of diseases. Customizing therapy regimens according to each patient’s unique molecular profile increases treatment effectiveness and boosts patient outcomes. For instance, by detecting mutations unique to a tumor, molecular diagnostics might assist in determining the best cancer treatments by minimizing the need for trial-and-error when choosing medications. These diagnostics make it easier to continue tracking how the disease progresses and how the body responds to treatment, which enables prompt therapeutic modifications.
The need for molecular diagnostics that offer comprehensive and individualized insights into disease causes and patient health is growing as the prevalence of chronic diseases keeps rising. The pattern promotes ongoing development and innovation in the molecular diagnostics industry, aiding in the improved treatment of long-term medical disorders. For instance, the International Diabetes Federation reported in 2023 that there has been a notable global increase in prevalence of Type 2 diabetes. According to the federation’s research, 537 million adults worldwide had diabetes in 2023, i.e., a significant increase over the previous year. Ageing populations, an increase in obesity rates, and sedentary lifestyles are blamed for the trend. The increasing number of people with Type 2 diabetes highlights the critical need for better preventative measures and medical therapies to control and lessen the effects of this long-term illness.

Technological Developments Fuel Market Growth
Technological developments have a major role in propelling the molecular diagnostics market’s expansion. The area has seen a revolutionary change due to the advancement of high-throughput sequencing, real-time PCR, and next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies, which offer enhanced precision, speed, and comprehensive diagnostic capabilities. These technologies make it possible to analyze genetic material with previously unheard-of precision, which helps with disease early detection and individualized therapy. High-throughput sequencing makes it possible to analyze multiple genetic variants which improves the efficiency of identifying mutations linked to disease. To diagnose infections and genetic abnormalities, real-time PCR improves the sensitivity and specificity of detecting particular genetic sequences. Deep genetic data insights are provided by NGS, which helps with focused therapy development and the identification of new biomarkers. Moreover, developments in data analytics and bioinformatics have enhanced the ability to comprehend intricate molecular data, enabling the extraction of useful insights from sizable datasets. Molecular diagnostics benefits from the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, which improves predictive analytics facilitates early diagnosis and personalized medication. The market for molecular diagnostics is growing due to these technical advancements since they provide more advanced instruments for accurate and effective illness detection and treatment. For instance, F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd. introduced the LightCycler PRO System in November 2023 to improve the usefulness of molecular PCR testing for applications such as in vitro diagnostics and translational research.
Instruments to Dominate the Global Molecular Diagnostics Market Share
Due to the high cost of equipment and the requirement for regular replacement or updates, the instruments category holds the highest revenue share of the market based on products and services. The rising incidence of chronic illnesses including cancer, genetic abnormalities, and infectious diseases, which need more sophisticated diagnostic techniques, expected to drive the demand for molecular diagnostic tools. This expansion can be linked to the growing need for personalized medicine and companion diagnostics, which need specifically designed instruments for particular uses. New and affordable diagnostic assays are anticipated to drive growth in the reagent and kit market. As more people are using electronic health record (EHR) and laboratory information management system (LIMS) systems, the software market is predicted to grow significantly over the course of the forecast period. More accurate and efficient patient diagnosis and treatment are expected to be made possible by the integration of molecular diagnostic software with electronic medical records.
Furthermore, it is anticipated that the advancement of machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies would support the growth of molecular diagnostic software by enabling the automated analysis of big datasets. For instance, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc. announced the release of a new digital PCR research tool called QuantStudio, Applied Biosystems, Absolute Q AutoRun dPCR (digital polymerase chain reaction) Suite in February 2023. Additionally, in May 2023, Sansure Biotech Inc. showcased its extensive line of IVD devices at EuroMedLab Rome 2023, which included the iconic III portable molecular workstations.
North America Dominates the Global Molecular Diagnostics Market Share
With the highest market share, North America led the largest proportion of the market.
