Summary

This study looked at 20 women who had radiation therapy for node-positive breast cancer years earlier. Researchers used cardiac MRI to check heart function and see if radiation dose levels were linked to heart damage. The goal was to better understand safe radiation limits to protect the heart in future patients.
