Results Fifty-one women were enrolled on study. The range of mean doses to the heart was
0.85-4.69 Gy and to the LV 1.30-8.16 Gy, with mean (Dmean) heart dose 2.0 Gy. T1 time, a …

hemodynamics, particularly myocardial flow reserve (MFR), in predicting cardiotoxicity …

Background Adjuvant radiation therapy (RT) for breast cancer has improved overall survival.
However, incidental exposure of the heart has been linked to development of radiation …

Objective: Studies examining radiation-induced heart toxicity in breast cancer patients are
inconclusive. The aim of this study was to prospectively and quantitatively asses myocardial …
