Cardio-Oncology Imaging and Diagnosis

Cardio-oncology imaging and diagnosis is a specialized area focused on assessing and monitoring heart health in cancer patients. Cancer treatments, like chemotherapy and radiation, can affect the heart. Doctors use advanced imaging techniques, such as echocardiograms and MRI scans, to evaluate heart function and detect any changes early. This helps ensure that any heart-related issues are addressed promptly, allowing for safer cancer treatment. By combining expertise in both cardiology and oncology, healthcare providers aim to protect the heart while effectively treating cancer.
