Understanding the biological mechanisms of cancer treatment-induced cardiac toxicity

Abstract

While many strides have been made in the multidisciplinary science of Cardio-Oncology, gaps in knowledge remain despite these advances to identify optimal strategies of detection and treatment of cancer treatment-associated cardiotoxicity. Many opportunities are available for advocates from all avenues of the field to transform cardio-oncology from a reactionary to a preventative science.
