Radiotherapy-Induced Cardiotoxicity: The Role of Multimodality Cardiovascular Imaging
Radiotherapy (RT) is one of the pillars of cancer therapy. High-dose radiation exposure on the thorax is mainly used in the context of adjuvant RT after breast surgery, in lung and esophageal cancer, and as a complement to systemic treatment in lymphoma. Due to the anatomical proximity, the heart in...
