What Perspectum does
Perspectum is a UK-headquartered medical technology company founded in 2012 in Oxford that develops AI-powered quantitative MRI imaging software for non-invasive diagnosis and monitoring of liver and multi-organ disease. Its core technology platform processes standard MRI scans through proprietary algorithms to extract biomarkers including corrected T1 (cT1), proton density fat fraction (IDEAL-PDFF), and T2* iron measurements, eliminating the need for invasive liver biopsies or contrast agents. The product portfolio includes the FDA-cleared and CE-marked LiverMultiScan for liver assessment, CoverScan for multi-organ imaging (including MHRA-approved CoverScan MD for Long COVID), MRCP+ for biliary disease (first FDA-cleared quantitative AI tool in this category), Hepatica for surgical decision support in liver cancer care, Atlas for cardiometabolic clinical trials, and VitruvianScan for body composition analysis, with a Perspectum Portal cloud platform for results management.
The company operates four primary revenue streams: clinical diagnostic services (per-scan fees for LiverMultiScan reports processed through a secure reporting laboratory), pharma imaging CRO services (quantitative MRI endpoints and site network management for 30+ NASH and other clinical trials), technology licensing to clinical partners and distributors, and software subscriptions via Perspectum Portal. Customers include pharmaceutical sponsors running clinical trials in NASH/MASLD, oncology, and cardiometabolic disease, healthcare providers such as Massachusetts General Hospital and UVA Health, research institutions including UK Biobank (60,000+ participants), and patient populations served through the Oxford Community Diagnostic Centre (60,000+ patients in 2024, scaling to 100,000+ by 2027).
Perspectum has raised approximately $140M in total venture funding, including a $55M Series C led by Oppenheimer Holdings in 2023. The company operates from Oxford (headquarters), Dallas, San Francisco, Cambridge MA, Lisbon, and Singapore, with products available in 28 countries across a 300+ site imaging network. As of January 2026, the company is undergoing a leadership transition following the departure of founder-CEO Dr. Rajarshi Banerjee, with COO Dr. Rexford Newbould serving as Interim CEO and former Merck CMO Dr. Mike Rosenblatt as Executive Chair.
