Abstract:
Radiotherapy of the thoracic tumors may often involve incidental exposure of the heart to ionizing radiation,which leads to radiation-induced heart disease.Radiation-induced heart disease including pericarditis,cardiomyopathy,coronary heart disease,myocardial injury,valvular heart disease,cardiac conduction abnormalities,and so on.Myocardial injury is a more serious type,which may eventually lead to cardiovascular adverse outcomes such as heart failure,affecting the quality of life and clinical prognosis of cancer patients seriously.Therefore,this article will review the mechanism and imaging research progress of radioactive myocardial injury,so as to guide clinical comprehensive management.
