MediPoint: In-Vitro Colorectal Cancer Screening Tests - US Analysis and Market Forecasts
London (PRWEB) October 28, 2013 -- Summary
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer, and the second most common cause of mortality amongst cancer patients. Prognosis is directly related to early diagnosis, with survival rates dramatically improved by early diagnosis and treatment. Thanks to the introduction of CRC screening programs, mortality in the developed countries is falling; however incidence continues to rise as a result of diet and increasingly sedentary lifestyles. While historically, colorectal cancer incidence in the developing world is low, in recent years, disease diagnosis rates have dramatically increased, as a result of changing lifestyles, awareness and improved access to medical services. CRC screening can improve survival rates, and reduce the overall cost of patient treatment.
GlobalData has estimated the US in-vitro CRC screening market to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 51.1% over the next seven years. This growth can be attributed to an aging population (increasing the screening population) and the rapid adoption of emerging new higher-priced gene tests which offer better specificity and sensitivity.
