SYSTOLIC AND DIASTOLIC FUNCTIONS OF THE LEFT VENTRICLE OF THE HEART IN PATIENTS WITH CANCER IN DIFFERENT MODES OF CHEMOTHERAPEUTIC TREATMENT
The findings of echocardiography monitoring of patients who underwent treatment at National Cancer Institute were retrospectively analyzed. Echocardiography was performed in order to assess cardiotoxic impact of chemotherapeutic treatment. The use of echocardiography allowed revealing early, subclinical manifestations of cardiotoxicity, which is important when using chemotherapeutic schemes with cardiotoxicity.
