There have been various factors, including increased incidence of COVID-19 positive patients, growth in research, rise in production of vaccines, outcome study of administered vaccines, and many other factors. For instance, research was conducted by the College of American Pathologists to report demographic and radiographic features in the lungs of patients infected and deceased with fatal COVID-19. All autopsies were performed at the College of American Pathologists. The study revealed that patients infected with COVID-19 not only have diffuse alveolar damage but also commonly have acute bronchopneumonia and aspiration pneumonia. The cases majorly led to the demand for diagnostic tests in the countries like the US, Canada, and Mexico. Thus, the tissue sectioning market in North America is positively impacted by COVID-19.
Based on region, the tissue sectioning market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle East & Africa, and South and Central America.
