“Cancer treatments and the Heart, who needs to see a cardio oncologist before, during and after Cancer treatment.
- Screen every patient with cancer for cardiac risk factors.
- Cancer is a team sport where a goal is to continue cancer treatments with safety.
- Education of clinicians engaged in long term care of cancer patients is important to identify late cardiac effects of cancer treatments.
