Molecular Cytogenetics Market Size, Share, Sector / Industry Report & Analysis, 2018-2025 (Includes Business Impact of COVID-19)

                                          
Abstract, Snapshot, Market Analysis & Market Definition: Global Molecular Cytogenetics Market


The global molecular cytogenetics market size was estimated at USD 1.5 billion in 2016. Cytogenetic analysis was earlier limited to investigation of cellular aspects that covered detection of genomic aberrations and study of chromosomal structure in heredity conditions. In the current scenario, cytogenetic analysis goes beyond simple investigation of chromosomal status of genome. This has accelerated the study of chromosomal changes that are involved in disease pathogenesis, three-dimensional organization of the human genome, and nature of inherited syndromes. 
 
Currently, the most important goal of human genetics is to bridge the gap between clinical applications of genetic findings and accordingly provide a refined medical service. Growth in utilization of genetic information in predictive models for disease traits has a direct impact on adoption of cytogenetic tools, thereby boosting revenue generation.
Increasing incidence of cancer and related growth in mortality per year has significantly driven the market. Continued rise in new cancer cases has emphasized the need for development of advanced technologies for a comprehensive understanding of cancer at a genomic level.
FISH and Comparative Genomic Hybridization (CGH) are among the most recognized cytogenetic techniques as they provide thorough information about cancer-related molecular signatures. These methods aid in gaining insights on cancer progression.
Growing activities in pharmacogenomics are anticipated to significantly impact market growth as several cytogenetic tools have been successfully used for pharmacogenomic biomarker studies. Effective use of CGH, FISH, and sequencing technology in pharmacogenomics is evident by the presence of a substantial number of published articles demonstrating the role of cytogenetic techniques in pharmacogenomic testing.
Ongoing technological advancements in CGH and FISH, with respect to resolution and specificity, have augmented the application scope of cytogenetics tools in basic research and molecular diagnostics. These advancements have successfully overcome the limitations of conventional cytogenetic analysis.
Lack of predictable coverage and reimbursement policies for new genomic tools could hinder the application of molecular cytogenetics in cancer and personalized care. Moreover, dearth of skilled personnel and high expense associated with maintenance and handling of advanced techniques are expected to impede the market in future.
