systemsto examine CT imagesof apatients heart.A CT scan usesX-rays anda computertomakedetailed picturesofbones,organs andother tissueinside the body.The newmethod wasdeveloped byresearchers atthe

tomeasure howmuch fatis presentaround heart arteries.That fatchangeswhen anartery becomesaffected,serving asan earlywarning systemfor heart attacks.Charalambos,a professorat OxfordUniversity,said
