Resonance Health has been undertaking a project with the aim to develop an MRI based technology to detect and measure liver fibrosis. The Company has conducted a number of studies which have shown some promising results. In 2011/12, the Company undertook an additional study in collaboration with the Austin Health liver unit in Victoria to explore this further. This study has now been completed.
The results have demonstrated an ability to detect liver fibrosis with MRI but unfortunately not with sufficient accuracy or sensitivity to be competitive with other products currently available. Whilst the results were not as positive as we had hoped, they provide a level of confidence to progress the project further and we are currently exploring alternative ways to analyse the image data that may enable improved detection of fibrosis that is competitive with other products.
