Adjuvant radiotherapy-induced cardiac changes among patients with early breast cancer: a three-year follow-up study.

Conclusion: During the 3-year follow-up after RT, negative subclinical changes in cardiac biomarkers and in LV systolic and diastolic function were observed. The measured changes were more pronounced in left-sided patients. In addition, AI use was associated with impaired cardiac systolic function. PMID: 31219359 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
