Summed rest score in gated myocardial perfusion imaging is a good predicator for treatment-related cardiotoxicity after anthracycline chemotherapy in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma patients
Abstract:Background: Anthracycline chemotherapy is commonly used in the treatment of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients. Treatment-related cardiotoxicity (TRC) may be observed during treatment and may induce severe cardiac failure or cardiac arrhythmia as the main cause of death, even several years after chemotherapy implementation. Herein, we performed a study to investigate the prognostic value of gated myocardial perfusion imaging (G-MPI) summed rest score (SRS) for the early detection of TRC caused by a… Show more
