A scan technique that gives more information about the heart without using any injections has been developed by a team of Oxford University researchers, external.
The medical, physics and engineering researchers are using a property of hydrogen atoms to create a pixel-by-pixel map of the heart, called a T1-map, which allows examination in greater detail than before.
Quote MessageThe potential of this research is huge, not only for heart scans. The pixel-by-pixel level of detail from these scans could help identify unhealthy tissue wherever it appears.

South East MEP Catherine Bearder will join campaigners tomorrow to measure Oxford's air pollution in an attempt to raise awareness about poor air quality.
The Liberal Democrat will be joined by activists for ClientEarth, an environmental law organisation that has taken the UK government to court for breaking air quality limits.
Quote MessageA lot has been done to reduce pollution levels in Oxford, but the city is still failing to meet European standards. Air pollution causes 10 times more deaths than traffic accidents each year. We must do more to tackle this invisible killer.

Plans to build more affordable homes in Oxford are being substantially scaled back due to the "negative effect" of government policies, its council says.
Oxford City Council said in its budget proposals it could no longer afford to buy 354 homes for council tenants at the Barton Park development.
The council said buying the homes for council tenants would have to be taken over by a council-owned housing company or a housing association, as it would not be able to fund the estimated £52m up to 2023/34.
