services such as blood tests, urine analysis, genetic testing, culture tests,
pathology tests, and more to assist physicians in determining appropriate
treatment plans for patients. The rising prevalence of chronic and infectious
diseases has increased the demand for accurate and timely diagnosis through
clinical laboratory tests.
The global Clinical
Laboratory Services Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 255.5 Bn in
2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 5.9% over the forecast period 2023 to
2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market key trends:
The increasing demand is primarily driven by the growing geriatric population
and rising awareness regarding early disease diagnosis. As per the United
Nations data, the share of global population aged 60 years or above is expected

more prone to chronic diseases necessitating regular health check-ups.
Furthermore, implementation of favorable government initiatives and regulatory
approval of new advanced testing procedures are accelerating the market growth.
For instance, regulatory bodies in the U.S. approved new guidelines for genetic
cancer risk assessment that broadened insurance coverage for multi-gene panel
tests in 2018.
