Europe Cancer Diagnostics Market by Product (IVD [Microarray, Immunoassay, PCR, Sequencing], Imaging [CT, MRI, Mammography, Ultrasound]), Cancer Type (Breast, Lung, Colon, Prostate), End User (Hospital, Imaging Center, Pharmaceutical)?Global Forecast to 2031.

The Europe cancer diagnostics market is projected to reach $12.21 billion by 2031, at a CAGR of 5.6% from 2024 to 2031.

Succeeding extensive secondary and primary research and in-depth analysis of the market scenario, the report analyzes key industry drivers, restraints, challenges, and opportunities. The growth of this market is driven by the rising prevalence of cancer, supporting initiatives for early cancer diagnosis, and increasing investments and funding for cancer research. Additionally, the supporting initiatives toward precision diagnostics for cancer are expected to generate growth opportunities for the players operating in the Europe cancer diagnostics market.

However, the high cost of imaging systems restrains the growth of this market. Additionally, the lack of skilled professionals and insufficiencies in the implementation of cancer screening programs pose a significant challenge to the market’s growth.

Among the products, in 2024, the IVD segment is expected to account for the largest share of the Europe cancer diagnostics market. IVD instruments provide precise, reliable screening and diagnostic testing through simple workflows and integrated software. Furthermore, IVD consumables assist healthcare providers in obtaining vital information regarding genetic abnormalities, tumor markers, and other diagnostic indicators to monitor disease development, guide treatment decisions, and assess therapy responses in cancer patients. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the advancements in IVD technology, the commercial availability of a diverse range of IVD reagents & consumables for the diagnosis of cancer, and the recurring use of IVD consumables.

Among the cancer types, in 2024, the breast cancer segment is expected to account for the largest share of the Europe cancer diagnostics market. The increase in breast cancer cases, increasing healthcare expenditure, and inclusion of certain advanced technologies such as NGS in the reimbursement have propelled the demand for cancer diagnostics for breast cancer. Additionally, government initiatives promoting breast cancer awareness regarding diagnosis and treatment boost breast cancer diagnosis. For instance, in October 2023, Galderma SA (Switzerland) launched a new breast cancer campaign called ’Facing Breast Cancer Together’, this campaign focuses on providing support and education about breast cancer awareness. Galderma has partnered with the National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF) to promote breast cancer awareness.

Among the end users, in 2024, the hospitals & diagnostic laboratories segment is expected to account for the largest share of the Europe cancer diagnostics market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the increasing cancer cases, the higher purchasing power of hospitals and diagnostic laboratories, well-equipped operating & diagnostic rooms, the presence of highly skilled healthcare professionals, ease in accessibility, better health coverage for hospital-based healthcare services from various private & group insurance plans, and the increasing number of hospitals and expansion of diagnostic laboratories.

An in-depth analysis of the Europe cancer diagnostics market provides detailed qualitative and quantitative insights into major countries, namely Germany, France, U.K., Italy, Spain, Switzerland, Netherlands, and Rest of Europe. In 2023, Germany is estimated to account for the largest share of the Europe cancer diagnostics market. The market growth in Germany is attributed to the increasing prevalence of cancer, the high adoption of advanced technologies, the established healthcare systems, rising healthcare expenditures, increasing investments and funding for cancer research, and initiatives to raise awareness about cancer diagnosis.
