Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Postoperative breast radiotherapy (RT) has been associated with increased risk of heart toxicity. However, there is a lack of knowledge for radiation-induced early cardiovascular injury, especially for hypofractionated RT. This study aims to prospectively detect and predict early clinical or subclinical cardiac events in women undergoing adjuvant RT for breast cancer.
