Advanced imaging modalities to detect cardiotoxicity

Recent advances in cancer treatments have significantly improved survival rates, reemphasizing the focus on reducing the potential complications associated with some therapies. Cardiovascular disease associated with chemotherapies is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in cancer survivors. Early detection of cardiotoxicity improves cardiac outcomes among cancer patients. The review will focus on imaging modalities used to assess cardiotoxicity - the cardiovascular consequences of chemotherapies. The review will discuss the benefits and limitations associated with each technique, as well as the guidelines available to help identify at risk patients. We will discuss novel techniques that may help detect earlier signs of cardiotoxicity, directing management that may improve clinical outcomes.
