Two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography in chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity in females with breast cancer

Abstract

Chemotherapy induces biventricular changes with more prevalent deterioration in RV values. Low LV & RV strain values at baseline together with reduction of these values after chemotherapy treatment can predict later CTRCD development. Combining LV GLS with RV GLS & FWLS values at (T1) is the strongest predictor of subsequent CTRCD.
