Japan's in-vitro diagnostics market is predicted to reach US$ 6.62 Billion by 2030, from US$ 4.59 Billion in 2023. Japan is one of the leading in-vitro diagnostics markets in the Asia-Pacific region. In-vitro diagnostics refers to the diagnosis of disease or other conditions of the human body through the collection, preparation, and testing of human samples with reagents, instruments, and systems.
Japan is facing the challenges of fighting infectious diseases including HBV, TB, HCV, and HIV, as well as various chronic diseases and cancer. The population of Japan is aging rapidly. For instance, as of September 2023, close to 36.23 million people in Japan were estimated to be within the age group of 65 and over. Japan’s quickly aging population leads to an explosion of chronic conditions such as heart disease and cancer. All of these conditions can be diagnosed and monitored using IVD products. However, some of the factors limiting the growth of the market are a lack of proper reimbursement policies and a stringent regulatory framework.
