Overview


According to FutureWise analysis the market for anatomic pathology track and trace solutions in 2023 is US$ 0.69 billion, and is expected to reach US$ 1.54 billion by 2031 at a CAGR of 10.52%.

Anatomic Pathology Track and Trace Solutions, also known as bar code-based tracking solutions, have recently found their way into anatomic pathology (AP) laboratories, paralleling their established presence in clinical pathology settings. These systems play a pivotal role in efficiently managing AP assets, encompassing specimens, blocks, and slides, while concurrently elevating laboratory performance, bolstering patient safety, and refining the quality of patient care. Moreover, the tracking of AP assets extends its utility beyond the laboratory by facilitating the routing of surplus clinical material into research laboratories and biorepositories, thereby contributing to scientific advancements and medical research. However, the implementation of such tracking solutions is far from a plug-and-play endeavor. Not all tracking solutions are created equal, necessitating a meticulous assessment of laboratory workflows to ensure seamless integration and alignment with specific laboratory needs. Consequently, a well-thought-out implementation strategy encompasses careful workflow analysis, software selection, hardware integration, data security and compliance measures, and robust change management strategies, ultimately fostering a more efficient and secure environment in AP laboratories.

In the anatomic pathology laboratory, one of the significant tools driving this revolution is using bar codes in tracking solutions. Bar codes have been used in many other areas of health care facilities, including the blood bank, pharmacy, medical records, materials management, and point-of-care. Barcoding has been used in the clinical pathology laboratory for decades. From this clinical pathology experience, we have learned that it is feasible to have labeling and tracking begin at the time of specimen collection and not just at accessioning, that bar codes support robotics and automation, simplify specimen sharing to perform multiple tests, and can help reduce staffing needs. Furthermore, several clinical pathology laboratory information systems (LIS) have evolved to accommodate foreign (i.e., outside client) bar codes and have shifted toward adopting universal ones.

Recent Developments in anatomic pathology track and trace solutions market:

In May 2021-Hologic has received FDA premarket approval for its ThinPrep Genesis™ processor, a device that improves cytology processing and specimen transfer for downstream applications in pathology and laboratory medicine. This approval marks a significant advancement in diagnostic technology, promising enhanced efficiency and accuracy in patient care and diagnostics.

The increasing prevalence and incidence of chronic diseases, such as cancer and cardiovascular diseases, poses significant demand for the anatomic pathology track and trace solutions market. These diseases are setting a substantial burden on healthcare systems globally, creating a need for accurate and timely diagnosis and disease management. Track and trace solutions contribute to the accuracy and reliability of these services by ensuring proper specimen identification, reducing errors, and improving diagnostic accuracy. By implementing track and trace solutions, healthcare providers can effectively track and trace specimens throughout the entire workflow, from collection to analysis, assuring patients receive the appropriate treatment based on accurate diagnosis. Furthermore, high implementation and maintenance costs are expected to obstruct the growth of the anatomic pathology track and trace solution market. A number of end users, essentially small and medium-sized laboratories, seek cost-effectiveness and choose refurbished systems, particularly in developing regions markets. Additionally, the market requires substantial infrastructure, software, and staff training investment. Thus, ongoing maintenance and upgrades can be costly, which may impose a barrier to adoption for some small-scale laboratories.
