The self-control study of echocardiography on patients with left breast cancer received IMRT
Abstract：Objective To explore the changes of echocardiography on the patients with left breast cancer who received intensity modulated radiation therapy( IMRT) .Methods Eighteen patients with left breast cancer were performed by echocardiography before and one month after IMRT.The cardiac morphology, hemodynamic and cardiac function were compared before and after the treatment.Results The detection value of cardiac ultrasound had no sig-nificant difference before and after IMRT(P>0.05);Mitral valve had no significant difference between systolic and diastolic peak velocity ratio(P>0.05);Cardiac function indexes of EF, FS and ESV showed significantly differences before and after the treatment(P<0.05).Conclusion There are some changes in cardiac function indexes in the patients with left breast cancer after IMRT.Echocardiography is of great value to the evaluation of cardiac morpholo-gy, hemodynamics and cardiac in the patients with left breast cancer after IMRT.
