Sinopsis

The escalating danger of cardiac toxicity posed by a range of increasingly effective anti-cancer therapies is insufficiently understood, according to the head of a world center of excellence for the study of cardio-oncology in northern China.    At a special session devoted to cardio-oncology held at the Chinese Society of Clinical Oncology (CSCO) 2024 Annual Meeting, the challenges of cardio-oncology were examined by a committee of experts with reference to the CSCO Clinical Practice Guide for Tumor Cardiology.   Among the speakers was cardiologist Yun-Long Xia, MD, PhD, FESC, FHRS, Head of Cardiovascular Medicine at Dalian Medical University in China. Afterward, he talked about their conclusions with Oncology Times reporter Peter Goodwin.
