Prognostic Value of Cardiac Biomarkers Assessment in Combination with Myocardial 2D Strain Echocardiography for Early Detection of Anthracycline-Related Cardiac Toxicity.
CONCLUSION: This study has shown that hs-cTnI with good sensitivity can predict cardiac toxicity in Anthracycline-based chemotherapy receiver. Use of strain with speckle echocardiography method has prognostic value; however, both longitudinal and segmental strain should be assessed. Lateral and inferoseptal SLS (segmental longitudinal strain) are specific markers of cardiac toxicity in the course of anthracycline-related cardiac toxicity.
