Description
Laboratory information systems (LIS), also known as laboratory information management systems (LIMS), are data and information management systems designed for industrial and healthcare-related laboratories, including clinical and analytical laboratories. These include research and development labs, in-process testing labs and quality assurance labs.
This new report from Kalorama Information, World Market for Laboratory Information Systems (LIS): Software, Hardware, and Implementation for Clinical Labs, 2022-2027, examines the current and potential world opportunity for healthcare laboratory information system (LIS) software, hardware, and implementation. The focus of this report is on the market for LIS in clinical diagnostic and healthcare-related labs, although LIMS in pharmaceutical drug discovery laboratories, and other drug research and development labs, are discussed as well.
Coverage includes:
- key trends and other facts about LIS and end-user usage in diagnostic and other clinical laboratories;
- global and regional revenues for clinical LIS, 2022-2027;
- CLIA registered laboratories by type of facility, 2015 & 2023;
- growth in US clinical laboratories, 1997-2023; growth in US hospital laboratory locations, 2011-2023;
- growth in US independent laboratory facilities, 2011-2023;
- key LIS selection issues;
- profiles of selected LIS/LIMS vendors;
- recent key collaborations and other deals;
- and key vendor mergers and acquisitions, 2011-2023
This market review examines LIS revenue growth in the clinical LIS area, including: global revenues and marketplace revenues by region, 2022-2027 (United States/North America, Europe, APAC, ROW).
