The global biophotonics market is expected to reach USD 149 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 12% during the forecast period 2022 to 2030. The biophotonics market has grown due to the growing elderly population, increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, expanding government efforts, rising healthcare reforms, and integration of IT into healthcare applications.

Market Overview

Various optical technologies that enable the interaction of light or photons with different biological species, molecules, cells, and tissues are developed using biophotonics. In dentistry, photomechanics is utilized to examine the connection between macroscopic mechanical stress and strain gradients. Studying the interplay between radiated energy and matter is made easier by spectroscopy. Last but not least, chemical and physical properties can be remotely sensed using fiber optic sensors. Users that utilize machine learning techniques can detect more subtle and complicated signals as well as particles. Even though researchers have been able to capture images with extremely high content that show the locations of numerous molecules of moving particles, some of these images have very low contrast, a noisy background, and fuzzy edges, making it difficult to count the precise number of particles present in the image and necessitating manual counting.

Researchers have started employing machine learning techniques, which train the computer to recognize and identify specific particles in the image, to get rid of these complexities. The adoption of biophotonics is being accelerated by the thorough analysis and extraction of crucial information that machine learning may be able to enable. The rise of nanotechnology in biophotonics, the rising elderly population, the expanding application of biophotonics in cell and tissue diagnostics, and the creation of novel photoacoustic tomography (PAT) devices are the major drivers of market expansion.

 The focus of biology research has changed from cells to viruses and cellular building blocks like proteins and nucleic acids. The analysis of these components requires instruments that function at the same size, moving the emphasis from the micro- to the nanoscale. As a result, nanotechnology is increasingly being used to image biological processes and analyze biological materials. Biomedical imaging uses nanoparticles made of iron and gold.
