Henry's primary research interest lies at the frontier of radiology and cardiology - the discovery of novel imaging biomarkers for common cardiovascular diseases utilising computed tomography (CT). His expertise include the creation of large scale multi-site imaging studies and the management and coordination of big data for answering scientific questions.

He has published work and holds patents related to new CT biomarkers for coronary artery disease, atrial fibrillation and ischaemic stroke. The majority of his work has been within The Oxford Translational Cardiovascular Research Group, with Professor Charalambos Antoniades and Professor Keith Channon. This work has included the creation of the ORFAN Study cohort, a well phenotyped cohort of over 100,000 patients who have undergone CT coronary angiogram as part of clinical care.

Henry has published work in major journals including Circulation, The European Heart Journal and The Journal of the American College of Cardiology. He has presented prize winning work at international meetings such as the European Cardiology Society Congress, the American Heart Association Meeting, and the British Cardiovascular Society Meeting.

His current research focus is on the use of CT for the prediction of new atrial fibrillation and first-time ischaemic stroke risk via a radio-transcriptomic approach.

Previously his research work has focused on novel ultrasound measures of vascular disease and cardiovascular disease epidemiology related to tobacco smoking.

Henry is an Associate Editor of Heart, serving as the Reviews Editor managing review commissions and educational articles.

Henry's teaching concerns cardiovascular science, basic clinical skills, the management of big data, artificial intelligence in clinical medicine, and the use of computed tomography in research and clinical medicine. He serves as a learning advisor at the University of Sydney Central Clinical School.
