How has the microtome market evolved, and where is it heading next?
The microtome market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $0.24 billion in 2024 to $0.26 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rising awareness about the early diagnosis, increasing demand for biopsies, increasing geriatric population, increasing demand for microtomes, and growing prevalence of cancer.
The microtome market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $0.34 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.5%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the rising prevalence of chronic diseases, an increase in the elderly population, a growing prevalence of oncological disorders, a rising adoption of microtomes in the field of neuroscience, and the growth of precision medicine. Major trends in the forecast period include advancements in automation, motorized microtomes with programmable features, the introduction of diamond-coated blades, integration with imaging systems, and development in high-resolution sectioning.

What are the key drivers behind the rapid expansion of the microtome market?
The rising prevalence of oncological disorders is expected to propel the growth of the microtome market going forward. Oncological disorders refer to a category of diseases marked by the uncontrolled proliferation and dissemination of abnormal cells, often leading to cancer. The rising prevalence of oncological disorders are due to several factors, including an aging population, increased exposure to environmental carcinogens, unhealthy lifestyles, and genetic predispositions. Microtomes supports pathologists by enabling precise tissue slicing, allowing to examine cancerous cells and determine the tumor type and its progression. For instance, in February 2024, according to the World Health Organization, a Switzerland-based international public health organization, in 2022, nearly 20 million new cancer cases were reported, resulting in approximately 10 million deaths due to the disease. The projections suggest that the annual incidence of cancer could rise to 35 million by 2050, marking a 77% increase from 2022 figures. Therefore, the rising prevalence of oncological disorders is driving the growth of the microtome market.

What are the most influential trends expected to drive the microtome market forward?
Major companies operating in the microtome market are focusing on developing advanced products such as tissue sectioning devices to increase efficiency in laboratory settings and improve results in both clinical and research environments. Tissue sectioning devices are crucial laboratory tools that create precise, consistent tissue slices for histology, research, and diagnostics. For instance, in February 2023, Precisionary Instruments, a US-based manufacturer of microtomes, launched a new product line of rotary microtomes. It offers key features such as a heavy, stable core ideal for serial sectioning, ensuring consistent results with large sample sizes. The RF-600 manual model includes two specimen clamp holders for various cassette sizes, while the RF-800 and RF-1000 models have LCD touchscreen controls. The RF-1000 model provides fully automated cutting capabilities, which can be managed via touchscreen, control panel, or foot pedal for improved efficiency. These microtomes are particularly suited for paraffin-embedded tissue sectioning in histology studies.
