New scans aim to spot hidden heart damage from cancer treatment
NCT ID NCT04901884
Summary
This study aims to find better ways to predict which cancer patients might develop heart or lung problems after receiving radiation therapy to the chest. Researchers will use a special combined PET/MRI scan and blood tests to look for early signs of damage in 40 adult patients. The goal is to identify markers that can forecast these side effects before symptoms appear, helping doctors monitor at-risk patients more closely.
