Breast Neoplasms, Cardiotoxicity
Conditions
Brief summary
This trial is to explore the optimal strategies for guaranteeing the cardiac safety of breast cancer patients following adjuvant radiotherapy in the modern era of multidisciplinary treatment.
Detailed description
With the development of modern radiotherapy techniques, the dose-volume of heart irradiated could be kept in much low level. However, until now, the optimal dose-volume parameters for limiting heart irradiation, the optimal follow-up interval for cardiac safety after adjuvant radiotherapy, the optimal screening examinations and treatments for irradiation-induced cardiac toxicity are unclear. We designed this trial to find answer for above questions to establish rationalization proposal for prevention, treatment and follow-up for cardiac toxicity associated with adjuvant radiotherapy for breast cancer.
Interventions
