AMRA Medical

AMRA Medical Our Vision is a new, fundamental way of thinking about health.

We leverage our proprietary MRI body composition analytics and deep expertise in disease research to deliver precise biomarkers – extracting insights from within your research or patient data to enhance your drug trial or clinical decision-making. AMRA is the first in the world to transform MR images into precise body composition measurements using a cloud-based, computer-aided service and a rapid MRI scan. Our imaging-based biomarkers (visceral fat, abdominal subcutaneous fat, liver fat, intramuscular fat, muscle group volumes, single muscle volumes, etc) are designed to play a long-term role in clinical trial development, research studies, and preventive care in a clinical setting. We collaborate with world-leading pharma, biobanks, research institutions, and hospitals, aiding in the advancement of metabolic research and its therapeutic application. With accurate knowledge about our bodies, we assist global medical leaders in predicting and preventing illnesses related to obesity-related and other metabolic disease, including diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular disease, liver disease, sarcopenia, musculoskeletal disorders, and more. We provide knowledge to the medical community so that every individual can become — and stay — healthy.

Students to Scientists: AMRA Inspires the Next Generation at LiU!

Earlier today, we had the pleasure of seeing one of our own return to familiar ground! Hanna Heering, a Clinical Scientist at AMRA Medical and a recent graduate of Linköpings universitet (LiU), spoke to current students about her journey from studying chemical biology and protein science at LiU, to helping drive innovation in MRI-based fat and muscle analytics at AMRA.

During the luncheon, Hanna shared how a chance discovery of AMRA during her thesis search led her to a career focused on tackling some of today’s biggest health challenges, including obesity and type 2 diabetes. She also introduced students to the science behind AMRA’s technology: using advanced MRI analytics to precisely quantify fat and muscle composition, a method born right here at LiU.

AMRA’s roots in Linköping run deep, founded by researchers from LiU who were inspired to better understand human health. That early curiosity sparked a mission that now supports global clinical trials and healthcare decisions: all starting with local research and talent.

We’re proud to be part of the Linköping community and committed to fostering the next generation of scientific leaders. Whether it’s through internships, thesis collaborations, or events like this, AMRA continues to invest in education and the incredible minds coming out of LiU and Sweden.

A big thank you to Hanna for representing us so brilliantly, and to all the students who joined the session. We’re excited to see where your curiosity leads you next!

As the year comes to an end, we wish you a joyful holiday season and every success in the year ahead. We’re looking forward to an exciting 2026!

Our Story

AMRA is a ground-breaking international digital health company at the forefront of medical imaging and precision medicine. The company has developed a new global standard in body composition assessment, the ability to automatically produce multiple fat and muscle biomarkers with unrivaled precision and accuracy, as well as contextual disease insights – all from a single, rapid, whole-body MRI. AMRA was founded in 2010 as a spin-off of Linköping University, Sweden, with the aim to support transformative care and vital decision-making from clinical research to health and wellness.

Imbalances between muscle and fat are linked to a multitude of diseases and to some of the greatest challenges for patients and healthcare systems globally. A detailed understanding of body composition is, therefore, vital for identifying and tracking health and metabolic status, diseases or injuries, and overall fitness.

AMRA’s current research and application areas include Obesity, CVD, Diabetes, NAFLD/NASH, Oncology, Sarcopenia, Cachexia, CNS/Neuromuscular and Musculoskeletal Disorders, and Rare Diseases - in both adult and pediatric populations. Our Vision is a new, fundamental way of thinking about health. We provide knowledge to the medical community so that every individual can become — and stay — healthy.
