Objectives To investigate the association between radiotherapy (RT) and cardiac
biomarkers in women with left-sided breast cancer. Methods This prospective observational …

Purpose Adjuvant breast irradiation has been associated with an increase in cardiac
mortality, because left-sided breast radiation can produce cardiac damage. The purpose of …

Purpose To evaluate the influence of concurrent trastuzumab on the cardiotoxicity in patients
receiving left-sided adjuvant radiotherapy. Materials and Methods Medical records of stage I …

Background Adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) for left-sided breast cancer increases cardiac
morbidity and mortality. For the heart, no safe radiation threshold has been established …

Purpose: This study aimed to identify risk factors that have significant interaction with
radiation exposure to the heart, and thus to determine candidates for heart-sparing …

Background: Breast cancer is the most frequent cancer among women. In line with the
survival improvement of patients with cancer, the issue of treatment-induced toxicities …

Simple Summary Adjuvant radiotherapy could damage the heart in left-sided breast cancer
patients. The deep-inspiration-breath-hold technique may limit the heart exposure to …

Background: In this study, we evaluate the evolution of cardiac changes during a three-year
follow-up after adjuvant breast radiotherapy (RT). Methods: Sixty patients with left-sided and …

Anti HER2 therapy and left breast adjuvant radiation therapy (RT) can both result in
cardiotoxicity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of radiation dose on …

Introduction To assess the effect of tumor laterality to cardiac-related deaths of breast cancer
in the current radiation practices using a large modern population-based study. Methods …
