A bilirubin meter is a medical device used to measure bilirubin concentration in a patient's blood. These meters can be either invasive, requiring a blood sample, or non-invasive, using transcutaneous methods to measure bilirubin levels through the skin. Bilirubin meters are crucial for the accurate and timely diagnosis and management of conditions related to the liver and red blood cell breakdown.
The main types of bilirubin meters include transcutaneous devices and benchtop devices. Transcutaneous devices measure bilirubin levels through the skin without invasive procedures. These devices are used for both neonates and adults to monitor conditions such as jaundice and hepatitis. They are commonly employed in hospitals, medical centers, and other healthcare settings.

This bilirubin meters market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The bilirubin meters market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $0.53 billion in 2024 to $0.57 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.5%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing awareness, supportive government policies and programs, increasing preference for home healthcare, aging population, economic development in emerging markets.
The bilirubin meters market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $0.76 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.5%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rising incidence of neonatal jaundice, rising healthcare expenditure, growth in the number of diagnostic centers, favorable reimbursement policies, growth in medical tourism. Major trends in the forecast period include innovations in bilirubin meter technology, hospital infrastructure development, demand for point-of-care diagnostic devices, investments in research and development, collaborations between manufacturers and healthcare providers.
The growing prevalence of liver diseases is expected to drive the expansion of the bilirubin meter market. Liver diseases include various conditions that affect liver function, often causing inflammation, scarring, or damage from factors such as infections, toxins, genetic disorders, or chronic diseases. The rise in liver diseases is attributed to increasing risk factors such as obesity, excessive alcohol consumption, viral infections, and lifestyle-related issues, alongside advancements in diagnostic capabilities. Bilirubin meters are crucial for managing these conditions as they provide accurate, non-invasive measurements of bilirubin levels, aiding in the diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of liver dysfunction and jaundice. For example, a report from the Office for Health Improvement and Disparities in April 2024 indicated that premature deaths from hepatitis C have stabilized over the past three years, with 233 in 2022, 241 in 2021, and 237 in 2020. In 2022, England reported 5,776 premature deaths from alcoholic liver disease, with a rate of 11.6 deaths per 100,000 people under 75. Consequently, the increasing prevalence of liver diseases is fueling the growth of the bilirubin meter market.
Leading companies in the bilirubin meter market are focusing on developing advanced technologies, such as non-invasive bilirubin meters, to offer a quick, painless, and convenient method for monitoring bilirubin levels. Non-invasive bilirubin meters measure bilirubin without needing a blood sample, often using light-based techniques such as transcutaneous spectrophotometry. For instance, in November 2022, Yishan Medical, a China-based medical device company, introduced the Intelligent Neonatal Transdermal Jaundice Instrument. This device features exclusive optical detection technology developed by Yishan Medical, overcoming the cost barriers set by foreign technologies. Compact and user-friendly, it enhances portability and accessibility, making it ideal for primary jaundice monitoring in medical institutions and improving neonatal jaundice care at the primary healthcare level.
In December 2023, Shenzhen Mindray Bio-Medical Electronics Co. Ltd., a China-based medical device company, acquired DiaSys Diagnostic Systems GmbH for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition will help Mindray advance its supply chain platform, access an experienced international team, and strengthen its in-vitro diagnostics portfolio. Mindray plans to support DiaSys with resources and leverage its global integration experience to foster synergistic growth for both companies. DiaSys Diagnostic Systems GmbH is a Germany-based manufacturer of bilirubin meters.
