Europe Dermatology Diagnostic Devices Market by Type (Dermatoscope, Microscope, Imaging Technique), and by Geography (Germany, France, U.K., Italy, Spain) - Analysis and Forecast to 2019

The global healthcare industry is witnessing a shift in paradigm and is now skewed towards non-invasive diagnostics, which helps in easy and painless diagnosis. Dermatology diagnostic devices are one such device that aids in the easy detection of the various skin disorders such as Melanoma. Of the various diagnostic devices, digital photography tool and dermatoscope are majorly used by dermatologist are. Dermatoscope aids in better diagnosis, beyond what the naked eye can see. The device projects light on the skin and causes magnification of the skin structure thus, helping in better diagnosis. The digital photography involves the total cutaneous imaging of the skin lesion, with serial images that are recorded over a period of time, which are then further analyzed.

The diagnostic device market segmented based on type includes dermatoscope, imaging technique, and microscope. The imaging technique dominates the dermatology diagnostic devices market with over 87.0% of market share in the European region and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 9.8% during the forecast period, from 2014 to 2019. This is due to the ability of the device to detect advanced stages of melanoma. The imaging technique is further classified into ultrasound, CT, MRI, and OCT of which the ultrasound market has the highest market share of 52.9%. The dermatoscope market is divided into traditional and digital dermatoscope, of which the traditional dermatoscope has the highest market share of over 60.8%.

There has been a rise in incidences of various skin disorders, such as melanoma, psoriasis, vascular lesions, and acne. Among these disorders, melanoma is a type of skin cancer that predominantly develops on the skin and is easily visible to the naked eye. The challenge in treating it lies in recognizing the early symptoms so that appropriate treatment can be initiated before the tumor reaches a thickness of 0.76 mm, which can be fatal for the patient.

In recent years, there has been a significant increase in the demand for various procedures and surgeries for the treatment of skin ailments. The incidence of melanoma is increasing at a fast rate among all the cancers occurring in Europe, with a current lifetime risk of 1 in 55. Various sophisticated diagnostic instruments, such as dermatoscopes, OCT scanners, and hand-held scanners allow an early detection of melanoma. Early detection not only improves survival rates but also reduces the number of biopsies in future, associated morbidity, and the cost of healthcare.

The advancement in technology has enabled the development of new, accurate, sensitive, and quantitative diagnostic instruments that have the potential to treat a number of skin disorders. Quantitative thermographic imaging (QTI), confocal microscopy, and optical coherence tomography (OCT) have been revolutionizing the diagnostic procedures. White-light and polarized-light imaging, spatial and spectroscopic multispectral methods, and terahertz (THZ) imaging methods have also been applied in certain cases to effectively treat patients.

In 2014, the European dermatology diagnostic devices market was valued at $117.8 million and is expected to reach $186.6 million by 2019, at a CAGR of 9.6% from 2014 to 2019. Germany accounted for $30.0 million in the European dermatology diagnostic devices market in 2014. It is expected to reach $47.6 million by 2019, at a CAGR of 9.6% during the forecast period.

This market research report categorizes the dermatology diagnostic devices market into submarkets, namely the dermatoscope market, imaging technique market, and microscope market. The geography of Europe market is further sub segmented into the U.K., Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and rest of Europe (RoE). The study is based on primary and secondary research, analysis of the market based on product sales, and competitive scenario. It also studies and analyses the trends and opportunities in the market.

The skin care products and devices industry is experiencing dynamic changes. Changing trends in 3-D printing and stringent norms by the healthcare regulatory authorities are projected to create various innovations in the dermatology diagnostic devices market. This will not only help improve the quality of care but also reduce costs. Major players in the dermatology diagnostic devices market include Carl Zeiss Meditec AG (Germany), Leica Microsystems (Germany), Olympus (Japan), and Nikon Corporation (Japan).
