Cancer treatments, despite their transformative potential, often come with unintended cardiovascular risks. Cardio-oncology focuses on understanding and mitigating these risks through a combination of cutting-edge diagnostics and personalized care. By using technologies like cardiac MRI and strain imaging, clinicians can detect early signs of heart stress caused by therapies such as radiation or targeted treatments. This collaborative field not only emphasizes prevention but also explores innovative therapeutics to repair heart damage. As survival rates improve, the integration of cardio-oncology ensures long-term health, enabling patients to overcome cancer without compromising cardiovascular wellness.
