PointLiver Dx Revolutionizing Liver Health Diagnostics

Who We Are

At PointLiver Dx, we are a research group out of the University of Edinburgh at the forefront of innovation, introducing a groundbreaking rapid point-of-care diagnostic test designed to transform the landscape of liver health monitoring. Our cutting-edge technology addresses critical needs in hospitals, drug clinical trials, veterinary practices, and even empowers community members with accessible self-testing capabilities.

The Significance Of Early Detection

Liver diseases often lurk in silence, reaching critical stages like cirrhosis and cancer before showing any symptoms. Recognizing the urgency of timely diagnosis, we’ve developed a rapid point-of-care diagnostic test specifically targeting drug-induced liver injury, a significant threat in clinical medicine with substantial economic and health implications.

Our rapid point-of-care diagnostic test specifically targets drug-induced liver injury, offering a timely and accurate solution. By detecting early biomarkers from blood samples, our biosensor ensures precision in diagnosis, providing insights within 15-60 minutes. This efficiency stands in stark contrast to conventional laboratory-based methods with substantially longer time-to-results.

Why PointLiver Dx?

Increasing Early Diagnosis For Drug-Induced Liver Injury

With over 100,000 hospital visits per year in the UK and more than 82,000 hospital visits annually in the US, drug-induced liver injury poses a major challenge in healthcare. Our point-of-care diagnostic test for drug-induced liver injury not only addresses the critical need for rapid diagnosis but also offers:

Efficiency

We are currently developing a biosensor that will complete the test within 15 minutes, providing quick and actionable results.
