Abstract
"Cardiac imaging is an essential tool in the field of cardio-oncology. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) stands out for its accuracy, reproducibility, and ability to provide tissue characterization. These attributes are particularly helpful in screening and diagnosing cardiotoxicity, infiltrative disease, and inflammatory cardiac disease. The ability of CMR to detect subtle changes in cardiac function and tissue composition has made it a useful tool for understanding the pathophysiology of cardiotoxicity. Because of these unique features, CMR is gaining prominence in both the clinical and research aspects of cardio-oncology."Entities:
