Abstract
Background: The right ventricle (RV) remains the 'forgotten chamber' in the clinical assessment of cancer therapy-related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD). Aim: We aimed to review the role that various cardiac imaging modalities play in RV assessment as part of the integrative management of patients undergoing cancer therapy. Discussion: RV assessment remains challenging by traditional 2D echocardiography. In this review we discuss other parameters such as right atrial strain, and other echocardiographic modalities such as 3D and stress echocardiography. We also elaborate on the specific role that cardiac magnetic resonance imaging and equilibrium radionuclide angiocardiography can play in assessing the RV. Conclusion: Biventricular function should be monitored following chemotherapy for early detection of subclinical CTRCD and possible solitary RV changes.
期刊介绍：
Research advances have contributed to improved outcomes across all specialties, but the rate of advancement in cardiology has been exceptional. Concurrently, the population of patients with cardiac conditions continues to grow and greater public awareness has increased patients" expectations of new drugs and devices. Future Cardiology (ISSN 1479-6678) reflects this new era of cardiology and highlights the new molecular approach to advancing cardiovascular therapy. Coverage will also reflect the major technological advances in bioengineering in cardiology in terms of advanced and robust devices, miniaturization, imaging, system modeling and information management issues.
