Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scanning is an increasingly important element of cancer diagnosis and assessment for cancer treatment. It allows detailed imaging of tumours and in some cases the detection of possible spread. This is important for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment.<\/p>
<\/p>
NHS England\u2019s National Cancer Programme has a number of initiatives underway to support the delivery of key strategic priorities including the National Diagnostic Capacity Fund. The fund is an investment in specific projects and interventions to change the way we deliver diagnostic services and unlock capacity by delivering more efficiently. The fund is focusing on redesigning and streamlining patient pathways, to ensure that patients receive the right tests at the right time, including MRI scans, as efficiently as possible.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4067", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Steve Brine"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Winchester"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Steve Brine"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2017-07-11", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2017-07-11T09:32:17.397Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2017-07-04", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Cancer: Tomography"} , "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, what steps he is taking to ensure that MRI scans can better detect cancer tumours.", "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" : "2677"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/748203", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/748203/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

My Rt. hon. Friend the Secretary of State is committed to reducing the rates of stillbirth in England and improving maternity outcomes for women and babies. In November 2015, he announced a national ambition to halve the rates of stillbirths, neonatal and maternal deaths and brain injuries that occur during or soon after birth by 2030. The Safer Maternity Care: next steps towards the national maternity ambition, published in October 2016, then set out a suite of initiatives, including actions to tackle issues of culture, leadership, and learning, in order to improve safety in maternity units and the outcomes and experience of care for mothers and babies.<\/p>
The action plan included the Saving Babies\u2019 Lives Care Bundle which is designed to support midwives and other clinicians to identify risks and implement care to prevent stillbirths and neonatal deaths in a focused way. The four interventions included in the Care Bundle are:<\/p>
<\/p>
- Reducing Smoking In Pregnancy;<\/p>
- Detecting Fetal Growth Restriction;<\/p>
- Raising Awareness Of Reduced Fetal Movement; and<\/p>
- Improving Effective Fetal Monitoring During Labour.<\/p>
The Care Bundle is being tested and piloted by volunteer maternity care providers. NHS England will then consider how to support implementation nationwide, as part of the Maternity Transformation Programme.<\/p>
The Department has also funded the National Perinatal Epidemiology Unit at the University of Oxford to develop a national standardised Perinatal Mortality Review Tool to support local perinatal death reviews. This is an important contribution to the efforts to reduce stillbirths as the tool will ensure systematic, multidisciplinary, high quality reviews are carried out on the circumstances and care leading up to and surrounding each stillbirth and neonatal death. It will then enable maternity and neonatal staff to identify emerging themes across a number of deaths to support learning and changes in the delivery and commissioning of care, to improve future care and prevent future deaths which are avoidable.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1542", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Philip Dunne"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Ludlow"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Mr Philip Dunne"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2017-07-12", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2017-07-12T13:35:55.323Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2017-07-04", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Perinatal Mortality"} , "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, what steps he is taking to further reduce the incidence of still births.", "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" : "2681"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/748205", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/748205/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) continuously monitors the safety of all medicines on the market in the United Kingdom and seeks independent expert advice from the Commission on Human Medicines on important new safety issues. The MHRA is aware of recently published research looking at the effect on male offspring of giving paracetamol to pregnant mice. All new evidence on the safety of paracetamol is kept under close review and this latest study will be carefully considered and any new advice will be communicated.<\/p>
<\/p>
There have not been any discussions with the Royal Colleges on this issue yet.<\/p>
<\/p>
Pregnant women should speak to their doctor or midwife before taking any medicine, including paracetamol.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4067", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Steve Brine"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Winchester"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Steve Brine"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2017-07-12", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2017-07-12T09:46:19.957Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2017-07-04", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Pregnancy: Paracetamol"} , "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, what discussions he has had with the Royal Colleges on the potential effect of pregnant women taking paracetamol and its effect on unborn boys.", "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" : "2682"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/748206", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/748206/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
The Department does not hold information on the number of suicides by people aged 10-19 years of age as a result of online bullying.<\/p>
<\/p>
However, the National Confidential Inquiry into Suicide and Homicide by People with Mental Illness, which is commissioned by NHS England and supported by the Department, published a thematic review in 2016, Suicide by Children and Young People in England.
