Additionally, the Vietnamese government is actively supporting the market growth by heavily investing in the expansion of the healthcare infrastructure and the medical device industry in the country. These substantial funds are allocated by the government through various policies, such as the National Strategy for Healthcare Development under Vision 2045, the National Pharmaceutical Industry Strategy, the Law of Health Insurance & law on Pharmacy, and the Law on Medical Examination & Treatment. Such kind of support offers ample growth opportunities for this market to grow further. Moreover, the adoption of artificial intelligence in the healthcare industry and the rising inclination towards digitalization are actively transforming the market. However, the high cost of the diagnostic tests and the limited infrastructure are restraining the market growth & expansion.

Vietnam Diagnostic Tests Market Driver:

Rising Prevalence of Chronic Diseases Driving Market Growth – The high incidence of chronic diseases, like diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cancer, respiratory diseases, kidney disorders, liver disease, and many more in the country, is driving the market growth. For instance, in 2024, approximately 7 million Vietnamese citizens were diagnosed with diabetes. Similarly, as of 2024, around 12 million people in the country are living with hypertension, contributing to the market growth.

Additionally, every year, almost 2,00,000 new cancer cases are added in the country, which is confirmed by various diagnostic tests such as biopsies, molecular diagnostics, etc., thus increasing the market demand. Also, the major cause of death in Vietnam is the high prevalence of cardiovascular diseases, which is responsible for about 30% of the total deaths per year. Moreover, about 12% of the country’s population has chronic kidney disease as of 2024. Likewise, the high prevalence of many other chronic diseases is increasing the diagnostic testing market in the country.

Vietnam Diagnostic Tests Market Opportunity:

Increasing Government Support in the Healthcare Industry – The rising support of the national government in the healthcare industry is offering ample growth opportunities for the market. This includes the implementation of various policies and heavy investments in the expansion of the manufacturing units for medical diagnostic devices. For instance, in 2024, the Vietnamese government introduced the law on medical examination and treatment, which mandates the electronic health records and prescriptions to the health department for improving the healthcare facilities and increasing the diagnostics industry in the country.

Additionally, the National Strategy for Healthcare Development under Vision 2045, the government is allocating significant funds for the development of diagnostic centers in the country. For example, in 2024, the Thong Nath Hospital inaugurated a high-tech diagnostic center equipped with Spectral CT 7500, 3 Tesla MRI, and digital subtraction angiography in Ho Chi Minh City. Moreover, the Ministry of Health is planning to upgrade six provincial testing centers to regional testing centers to increase diagnostic accessibility. These efforts are increasing the potential market growth.

Vietnam Diagnostic Tests Market Challenge:

Limited Infrastructure & High Costs – The hospitals, especially in rural and remote areas of the country, lack suitable infrastructure for the establishment of advanced diagnostic machinery, thus hindering the market growth. Out of these facilities, several hospitals are still relying on the outdated diagnostic tools, including X-ray machines for diagnostic purposes, thus hindering the market growth & expansion.

Additionally, the diagnostic tests are costly, which puts a financial barrier to a major population in the country and limits the market growth. For instance, the MRI machines cost about USD3 million. Similarly, a single PCR test can cost up to USD50, while that of biopsies is approximately USD150. Also, the biopsy costs exceed USD300 in Vietnam. These are negatively impacting the diagnostic tests market, thus restraining the market growth.

Vietnam Diagnostic Tests Market Trend:

Digital Health & AI-Powered Diagnostics Gaining Traction – Market dynamics are changing positively due to the rapid shift towards digital healthcare facilities and the integration of advanced technologies such as machine learning and artificial intelligence in diagnostic tools & machines. These tests provide better results with high efficiency and faster patient outcomes over traditional diagnostics.

Several companies, such as VinBrain, Vikomed, FPT Software, TMA, etc., are introducing advanced diagnostic tests that are integrated with digitalization and artificial intelligence. For instance, VinBrain introduced DrAid™ AI Platform, which is developed to enhance healthcare delivery, especially in diagnostic imaging. This system has already been deployed in almost 182 hospitals in the country. Also, VinBrain rolled out AI-based TB screening using chest X-rays at scale. This innovation reduces screening costs from approximately USD50–60 to just USD1 per patient, with results delivered in under 20 seconds. These innovations are actively transforming the Vietnam Diagnostic Tests Market.

Vietnam Diagnostic Tests Market (2025-30): Segmentation Analysis

The Vietnam Diagnostic Tests Market study of MarkNtel Advisors evaluates & highlights the major trends and influencing factors in each segment. It includes predictions for the period 2025–2030 at the national level. Based on the analysis, the market has been further classified as:

Based on Product Type:

• Immunoassay-Based Diagnostic Tests
• Molecular Diagnostic Tests
• Clinical Chemistry Diagnostic Tests
• Hematology Diagnostic Tests
• Microbiology Diagnostic Tests
• Rapid/Point-of-Care Diagnostic Tests
• Others

Among these, immunoassay-based diagnostic tests are the leading product type and hold about 30% market share. The dominance is due to the high accuracy and quick results of these tests over other tests; therefore, people are preferring for the immuno-based diagnostic tests in the country. One of the major growth factors of this type of test is the rising prevalence of diseases like TB, hepatitis B & C, HIV, etc. in Vietnam, as these tests must be accurate and faster for early and precise treatment.

Additionally, these tests are cheaper and sensitive, thus increasing the demand. For instance, the SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Tests are just USD7.8 per test, which is under budget for a large group of customers, thus dominating the market segment. It has led to increased affordability, including in rural and remote areas, and accessibility due to its small and compact size.

Based on End-Users:

• Hospital-Based Laboratories
• Diagnostic Centers/Stand-alone Labs
• Clinics
• Home Care
• Research Institutes
• Others

Out of these, the hospital-based laboratories are dominating the market with a market share of around 50%. The dominance is due to the analysis of a large volume of patients in a smaller period, which is creating the demand for advanced imaging technologies for urology, gynecology, cardiology, etc., thus leading the market segment.

Additionally, the government healthcare policies in Vietnam are increasing the infrastructural development of healthcare in the country, including the establishment of diagnostic machinery and equipment in the hospitals. Also, the large infrastructure in hospitals is providing adequate space to set up big size diagnostic machinery such as CT scans, MRI machines, biopsy labs, etc. These factors are contributing to the dominance of hospital-based laboratories in the market.
