Abstract:
Left ventricular systolic dysfunction is a significant cause of morbidity among cancer patients in whom this unfortunate complication develops. Investigation and management of chemotherapy- and radiation-induced cardiomyopathy in the emerging field of cardio-oncology involves a multidisciplinary approach between cardiology and oncology departments. The purpose of this article is to provide a practical approach to the cardiologist's assessment and management of cancer treatment-related cardiomyopathies.
