Notes to editors 
Medicsight PLC is a UK-headquartered, research driven, leading developer of 
computer-aided detection (CAD) and image analysis software for the medical 
imaging market. The CAD software automatically highlights suspicious areas on 
computerised tomography (CT) scans of the colon and lung, helping radiologists 
to identify, measure and analyse potential disease and early indicators of 
disease. Medicsight's CAD software has been validated using one of the world's 
largest and most population diverse databases of verified patient CT scan data. 
Medicsight's ColonCAD(TM) and LungCAD(TM) software products are seamlessly 
integrated with the advanced 3D visualisation workstations of several 
industry-leading imaging equipment partners. 
 
About Computer-Aided Detection 
With increasingly sophisticated radiological imaging hardware such as 
Multi-Detector CT scanners, radiologists are facing a growing challenge in the 
amount of detailed patient image data that they must review for each patient 
examination. Some CT scan examinations generate as many as 1000 images per 
patient. Review of this data by the radiologist is not only time-consuming but 
also prone to error due to reader fatigue. CAD software can help the reviewing 
radiologist by analysing the image data and automatically highlighting 
suspicious regions of interest for closer inspection. Without CAD software some 
potential abnormalities or areas of disease may be overlooked. This is critical 
for diagnosis and the management of patient outcomes as early detection of 
disease greatly increases the probability of successful treatment and a positive 
therapeutic outcome. 
 
About Medicsight's CAD software 
Medicsight's ColonCAD(TM) and LungCAD(TM) software use an advanced CAD algorithm 
to analyse CT scans of the colon and lung and automatically highlight suspicious 
areas that may be indicators of disease. CAD may highlight areas easily 
overlooked by the reviewing radiologist, such as small lesions or regions that 
are hidden from view behind folds in the colon or normal structures and 
surrounding tissue in the lung. 
 
Both CAD products seamlessly integrate with the advanced 3D visualisation 
platforms of industry-leading imaging equipment partners. The integrated systems 
provide sophisticated image viewing capabilities, including 3D reconstructed 
image data, with the added advantage of demonstrating automatic CAD findings to 
assist clinical end users in the detection and analysis of disease. This allows 
clinical end users to perform either a 'second read', where CAD findings are 
displayed to the user after completion of an initial review of the CT scan data, 
or a 'concurrent read' where CAD findings are displayed during the user's 
initial review of the original CT scan images. 
 
Since inception, Medicsight has developed close and lasting relationships with 
some of the world's foremost clinicians in product related areas. This provides 
the Company with a wealth of clinical expertise and dedicated clinical research 
to support ongoing product development. Medicsight also collaborates with a 
number of leading academic institutions and clinical research programmes 
worldwide to develop the Company's comprehensive database of population diverse 
verified patient CT scan data, thus allowing Medicsight's products to be 
validated to the highest possible standards. 
 
Chairman's Statement 
Medicsight is an industry leader in the development of Computer-Aided Detection 
(CAD) and image analysis software to assist radiologists in the early detection 
of disease. 
The Group's focus continues to be on developing CAD software applications and 
related other technologies that help clinicians in the early detection of 
potential colonic polyps when analysing medical images generated from 
Computerised Tomography ("CT") scanners. 
In the year ended 31 December 2009 Medicsight:

In the year ended 31 December 2009 Medicsight recorded GBP115,000 of revenue, 
and has a strong statement of financial position with cash and cash equivalents 
of GBP10,708,000 at 31 December 2009. 
 
Financial review 
Whilst still limited, revenues have grown incrementally to GBP115,000 in 2009 
compared to GBP103,000 in 2008. Medicsight ended 2009 with net assets of 
GBP10,426,000 including GBP10,708,000 of cash and cash equivalents.  At various 
points during the year we have invested our surplus cash in highly liquid, blue 
chip marketable securities.  At 31 December 2009 all of our liquid assets were 
held as short-term cash balances, mainly in Sterling.  Post year end we continue 
to hold our surplus cash and cash equivalents on short-term deposit in Sterling. 
Medicsight continues to have strong internal controls over accounting and 
financial reporting procedures as governed by its parent company's 
Sarbanes-Oxley programme. 
In 2009 the Board completed a review of business operations and resources and 
initiated a cost restructuring program to drive cash flow savings without 
jeopardising the Group's longer term plans.  This resulted in a reduction in 
headcount and the disposal of a number of dormant and non core companies. 
As part of this process and to concentrate on restructuring the MGT Capital 
Investments, Inc. group of companies, Tim Paterson-Brown stepped down as 
Executive Chairman but remains on the Board as a Non-Executive Director.  I was 
promoted to the role of Executive Chairman and Allan Rowley, previously Chief 
Financial Officer, was promoted to Chief Executive Officer. Troy Robinson, 
previously Group Financial Controller was promoted to Chief Financial Officer 
and Company Secretary, and was appointed to the Board of Directors on 19 March 
2010. 
 
Product development 
ColonCAD 
Medicsight's core technology is the proprietary ColonCAD(TM) algorithm that is 
integrated (using application protocol interface ("API") technology) into 
visualisation workstations for radiologists to use when reviewing a patient's 
colon CT scan data. 
The CAD algorithm assists the radiologist as they search for polyps in the CT 
scan image data.  The radiologist uses the visualisation software to review the 
patient's CT scan images on the screen and search for polyps (potentially 
pre-cancerous lesions on the wall of the colon).  After a full review the 
radiologist then activates the Medicsight ColonCAD(TM) software - which 
immediately displays "CAD marks" on the images, drawing the radiologist's 
attention to potential polyps.  The radiologist then assesses each marked region 
in order to make the final decision as to the presence or absence of a polyp. 
Clinical studies have demonstrated that radiologists assisted by Medicsight's 
ColonCAD(TM) technology have a significantly higher sensitivity for the 
detection of patients with polyps in CT colonography compared to unassisted 
reading (i.e. traditional reading without the use of ColonCAD(TM)). 
Medicsight completed work on ColonCAD 4.0 and formally launched this product at 
the European Congress of Radiology in March 2009. This new release significantly 
reduces the number of false-positive CAD marks presented to a radiologist 
reviewing a patient data set.  This should lead to further improvements in 
reader performance when assisted by the ColonCAD(TM) software.  We believe that 
this version of ColonCAD(TM) extends Medicsight's position as a provider of one 
of the world's leading colon CAD software solutions. 
Medicsight's ColonCAD(TM) has been developed and validated using a large 
database of CT scans from hospitals around the world and has been assessed in 
many clinical studies, the results of which have been published in peer-reviewed 
publications and presented at leading radiology conferences. 
 
MedicRead 
The MedicRead product is Medicsight's advanced visualisation software 
application for CT colonography.  The latest version of this product (version 
3.0) was launched in June 2009 and featured improved workflow flexibility, 
enhanced 3D visualisation options, as well as providing state-of-the-art CAD 
functionality though its integration with the new ColonCAD 4.0 product. 
MedicRead is a flexible option for hospitals and clinics unable to invest large 
capital sums in new image analysis infrastructure.  MedicRead can be deployed 
either on a standalone basis or integrated into an existing clinical IT 
infrastructure (e.g. a PACS environment). 
 
MedicCO2LON 
In addition to the computer aided detection software applications, Medicsight 
have developed an automated CO2 insufflation device called MedicCO2LON. 
Each patient that has a CT colon scan requires their colon to be insufflated 
(distended) with either CO2 gas or room air administered prior to the 
acquisition of their CT colonography images.   MedicCO2LON is designed to 
provide good quality insufflation, which is essential for the acquisition of 
high quality images from the CT colonography examination. 
 
Longer term projects 
Some longer term colon related opportunities that we continue to research 
include: 
+------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ 
| ·    | Flat lesions (which are non-protruding lesions in the Colon)    | 
|      | have recently received much clinical interest.  The Medicsight  | 
|      | team are researching CAD technology for the detection of these  | 
|      | flat lesions to compliment the existing ColonCAD application.   | 
+------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ 
| ·    | Optical endoscopy - working with leading London academic and    | 
|      | clinical centres, Medicsight is researching the use of CAD and  | 
|      | other image analysis technologies in the field of optical       | 
|      | endoscopy, with a view to these technologies combining          | 
|      | information in real time (i.e. as a clinician examines a        | 
|      | patient) from sources of patient data.                          | 
+------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ 
Intellectual Property 
Medicsight continues to develop its intellectual property portfolio to protect 
the core technology in its CAD and other products.  During 2009 patents were 
granted in the UK and US covering aspects of Medicsight CAD algorithms (for both 
Colon and Lung) as well as image processing methods related to the 
identification of the boundary of lesions. 
 
Commercial progress 
Medicsight's primary route to market is via partnerships with global advance 
visualisation companies, PACS suppliers and other OEMs. 
In June 2009, Medicsight signed a global partnership agreement with Alma IT 
Systems of Spain for the integration of Medicsight ColonCAD(TM) API within Alma 
Colon, Alma's latest 3D visualisation colon workstation. 
This partnership agreement is in addition to our existing agreements with Vital 
Images Inc., TeraRecon Inc., Viatronix Inc. and Toshiba Medical Visualization 
Systems (previously Barco NV), Infinitt, Ziosoft Inc., and Intrasense SAS. 
In January 2010 we signed a global distribution agreement for MedicCO2LON with 
MEDRAD Inc.  The product was CE marked in February 2010 and is to be launched in 
Europe later this year.  Regulatory approval for additional territories will 
commence in 2010. 
 
Regulatory approvals and submissions 
US Food and Drug Administration clearance 
In November 2008 Medicsight submitted the ColonCAD(TM) 510(k) application to the 
Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") for clearance in the USA. 
In December 2008 we received an Additional Information ("AI") letter from the 
FDA and submitted our response to the FDA's enquires in March 2009. 
During the summer of 2009 we had a number of informal meetings and discussions 
with the FDA as they performed their review of our 510(k) submission. 
On 5 January 2010 we received our second Additional Information ("AI") letter 
from the FDA, in which the FDA has requested further technical details regarding 
the clinical trials and data analyses undertaken in our 510(k) submission - 
which the Company will respond to before the deadline of 21 June 2010. 
 
Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare 
In November 2007 we submitted our MedicRead Colon application to the Ministry of 
Health, Labour and Welfare ("MHLW") regulatory authorities in Japan. 
During 2008 and 2009 we attended a number of meetings with ministry officials, 
demonstrated the product, answered specific questions regarding the product 
application and formally responded to questions from the MHLW. We are pleased 
with progress to date and look forward to further feedback. 
 
Other regulatory territories 
In 2009, version 4.0 of the Medicsight ColonCAD API, and MedicRead 3.0 (our 
visualisation workstation which includes version 4.0 of the Medicsight ColonCAD 
API) received European (CE) approval, Australian approval, and Canadian 
approval. 
In November 2009, we submitted MedicRead 3.0 to the Chinese State Food and Drug 
Administration ("SFDA") for approval. 
 
Clinical Activity 
Medicsight's Clinical Development team continued their work supported by a 
network of global medical luminaries. 
European Medical Advisory Board meetings were held in January and June 2009 to 
take advice from clinical experts regarding the continuing development of 
Medicsight's product roadmap and clinical research programme. 
Close collaboration continued with leading Virtual Colonoscopy radiologists - 
including Professor Perry Pickhardt and Dr. David Kim from the University of 
Wisconsin Medical School who completed a large research study to evaluate the 
performance of ColonCAD(TM) 4.0. 
In this study, the performance of Medicsight's version 4.0 ColonCAD was compared 
to the sensitivity of experienced radiologists for the ability to detect 
colorectal polyps on CT colonography image datasets.  The study assessed the 
CAD's performance across more than 3,000 patients who had undergone CTC 
screening for colorectal cancer. 
The Medicsight CAD correctly identified (a) 94% of patients who had a polyp that 
was 6mm or larger; and (b) 96.5% of patients who had a polyp 10mm or larger in 
size.  (The CAD's performance at the 10mm or larger threshold is particularly 
important as polyps in this size range are considered to be significant findings 
that require further investigation by optical colonoscopy). 
In the study, 96% of all individual polyps 10 mm or larger were detected by the 
Medicsight CAD system. Significantly, the Medicsight CAD detected 15 polyps 6mm 
or larger that were missed by the experienced radiologists in their unassisted 
review of the patient data - four of which were clinically significant at larger 
than 10mm in size. 
This study provides clear evidence-based outcomes - demonstrating the added 
value of Medicsight's ColonCAD application to the clinician. 
The results of this CAD study, the largest of its kind to date, were presented 
at the 10th International Symposium on Virtual Colonoscopy in Reston, Virginia 
in October 2009.  A scientific paper on the study is currently undergoing 
peer-review with a leading journal with publication expected in 2010. 
Scientific presentations of Medicsight's CAD research were also made at the 
annual European Congress of Radiology (held in Vienna during March 2009), at the 
20th Annual Meeting of the European Society of Gastrointestinal and Abdominal 
Radiology "ESGAR" (Valencia, Spain, June 2009) and the annual Radiological 
Society of North America "RSNA" conference (Chicago, USA, December 2009). 
CAD research focused on investigating the impact of CAD on radiologist readers 
when interpreting CT colonography images. 
In addition to the University of Wisconsin study, the results of research 
undertaken at University College Hospital, London and the Japanese National 
Cancer Centre in Tokyo demonstrated the positive benefit of ColonCAD in 
improving reader performance. 
Medicsight continued to support of a number of international CT colonography 
training workshops, including those delivered by leading US proponents of CT 
colonography, Professor Perry Pickhardt (University of Wisconsin Medical School) 
and Judy Yee, MD (Associate Professor and Vice Chair of Radiology at the 
University of California, San Francisco).  Medicsight again supported the 
bi-annual ESGAR CTC training workshops; held in Harrogate (UK) and Stresa 
(Italy) during 2009.  These workshops train radiologists to interpret CTC images 
using the latest visualisation and CAD technology and are fundamental to the 
increasing acceptance and implementation of CT colonography and CAD as a routine 
imaging examination for investigation of the colon. 
 
Outlook 
The delay in gaining regulatory approvals in the USA and Japan meant that the 
Company had to downsize its cost base to preserve cash, and did so without 
jeopardising longer term research, product development or clinical activities. 
We expect European sales growth to accelerate in 2010 and expect to see revenues 
commence from sales of the MedicCO2LON insufflator unit. 
At 31 December 2009 the Group had strong cash reserves of GBP10,708,000. 
Whilst we are confident of achieving regulatory approval in the USA and Japan, 
timing remains uncertain, nevertheless we look forward to achieving further 
commercial progress in 2010. 
 As your Chairman and on behalf of the Board I would like to thank you for your 
continuing support.
