Brief summary

Treatments-related cardiotoxicity is a critical issue in long term lymphoma survivors, particularly at young age, and its early identification is important to prevent clinically relevant cardiac events. Complete echocardiographic assessment including 2-dimension global longitudinal strain (2D-GLS), seems to be an effective tools in detecting preclinical systolic changes to the cardiac function even when the ejection fraction is preserved. The aim of Cardiocare study is to investigate early detection of subclinical chemo and radiation-induced changes in left ventricular function using 2D-GLS.
