In April 2018, the Government announced £75 million over five years for prostate cancer research, which will focus on improving early diagnosis and survival rates as well as exploring options for different treatments for men affected by the disease. Funding will be invested through the National Institute for Health Research to support a wide range of research.<\/p>

NHS England has invested £130 million to fund the modernisation of radiotherapy across England. This has ensured that older linear accelerators (LINACs - radiotherapy machines) being used by hospitals are being upgraded or replaced, giving cancer patients access to the latest leading edge technology regardless of where they live. Over 80 machines have been replaced or upgraded.<\/p>
<\/p>
In September 2019, the Government committed to funding £200 million for new equipment to drive earlier diagnosis of cancer and improve survival. More than 300 diagnostic machines will be installed across the country from this year, replacing outdated MRI machines and CT scans with cutting edge technology. The new machines will be AI-enabled to keep pace with future advances in technology, which allow tasks now done by humans to be done by computer.<\/p>

NHS England and NHS Improvement are focusing on the prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD) for both men and women, with a commitment to earlier detection and treatment of risk factors monitored by the introduction of a national CVD prevention audit. NHS England and NHS Improvement have advised that treatment options for women with hypertension are generally the same as for men with the condition, apart from specific situations such as hypertension in pregnancy.<\/p> The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence has guidelines on hypertension diagnosis and treatment, including in relation to women. NG136 (hypertension in adults: diagnosis and management, August 2019) covers the identification and treatment of primary hypertension in people aged 18 and over, and includes a specific recommendation for the offer of antihypertensive drug treatment to women of childbearing potential with diagnosed hypertension. NG136 aims to reduce the risk of cardiovascular problems by helping healthcare professionals to diagnose hypertension accurately and treat it effectively.<\/p> NG133 (hypertension in pregnancy: diagnosis and management, June 2019) covers the diagnosis and management of hypertension, including pre-eclampsia, during pregnancy, labour and birth, and includes advice for women with hypertension who wish to conceive and women who have had a pregnancy complicated by hypertension. NG133 aims to improve care during pregnancy, labour and birth for women and their babies.<\/p> The NHS Health Check helps eligible people aged 40-74 to reduce their future risk of having a heart attack or stroke and includes a test for blood pressure. Research shows that women are more likely to have an NHS Health Check, with over 3.4 million women having a check between April 2012 and March 2018.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4380", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Jo Churchill"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Bury St Edmunds"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Jo Churchill"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2020-01-28", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2020-01-28T17:58:37.897Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2020-01-20", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Hypertension: Females"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what discussions he has had with health bodies on treatment options for women with high blood pressure.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4131", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Jim Shannon"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Strangford"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Jim Shannon"} ], "uin" : "5416"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1172005", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health and Social Care"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1172005/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : " Public Health England (PHE) has not held discussions with the Royal College of Nursing on whether there is a link between mobile phone usage and the development of brain tumours.<\/p> Regarding other health bodies, PHE is a collaborating centre in the World Health Organization\u2019s International Electromagnetic Fields Project.
