Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Twenty-seven breast cancer women without heart failure, underwent CMR imaging (3T-Achieva, Philips) before and 3 times serially after 4-cycles of adjuvant DOX (60mg/m2). CMR assessed left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF), T1 mapping pre and post gadolinium and late gadolinium enhancement imaging. Biomarkers were obtained before and 72 hours after each DOX-cycle.
