For instance, now doctors are using dPCR instead of traditional PCR to see if a patient’s personalized therapy actually worked or not. Notably, Precision medicine is closely linked with companion diagnostics, which is essential for identifying patients who are most likely to benefit from which specific targeted therapy, which has increased demand for high-sensitivity instruments, including digital PCR (dPCR), flow cytometers, among others, in hospital laboratories.

North America is now switching from centralized testing models to decentralized, near-patient testing systems. So, instead of shipping samples to the central hub and waiting for them, now hospitals and labs are upgrading to compact life science instruments that can sequence a patient's tumor genome in less than 24 hours on-site, which helps in performing the process quickly.  

Apart from this, precision medicine emphasizes continuous monitoring to check the treatment response, for which repeated use of dPCR, NGS systems is required, which is also driving the demand for life science instruments.
