In the early months of the pandemic, Betty co-led of a study of people hospitalised with COVID, looking at the long-term impact on organs including the heart, liver and kidneys.
Her results suggest that many have both ongoing symptoms, and detectable signs of inflammation in their organs, long after they recover from the initial infection.
In early 2020, Perspectum was working on a multi-organ scan for patients with diabetes. Banjo realised they could use this technology to look at people hospitalised with COVID to find out if there was any residual damage.

CEO of Perspectum, an Oxford University spin-out company based on MRI imaging technology. During the pandemic, Rajarsh (known as Banjo) and his colleagues extended the company’s approach to scan five organs simultaneously and analyse the results to look for organ damage in Long COVID.
Associate professor of cardiovascular medicine, academic cardiologist and senior clinical research fellow, University of Oxford. In her research, Dr Raman uses Magentic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to study heart failure.
In the early months of the pandemic, Betty co-led of a study of people hospitalised with COVID, looking at the long-term impact on organs including the heart, liver and kidneys.
Her results suggest that many have both ongoing symptoms, and detectable signs of inflammation in their organs, long after they recover from the initial infection.
In early 2020, Perspectum was working on a multi-organ scan for patients with diabetes. Banjo realised they could use this technology to look at people hospitalised with COVID to find out if there was any residual damage.
By the end of 2020, the new product — Coverscan — had been authorised for clinical use in Long COVID clinics in the UK. It is now used in several countries around the world.

During the pandemic, Paul treated people for the mental health consequences of the COVID-19 infection and the impact of lockdown measures. Using a database of clinical records for 80 million patients in the US, Paul and his colleague Max Taquet discovered:
COVID patients were more likely to suffer mental health problems months after being infected than people with any other condition. People with previous mental health conditions were more vulnerable to COVID. Persistent symptoms known as ‘long COVID’ - present in about half of all COVID patients - also affected about a third of influenza patients.
