Written by experts in cardiovascular disease, hematology, and
oncology, The Washington Manual (R) of Cardio-Oncology: A Practical
Guide for Improved Cancer Survivorship is a clinically relevant,
easy-to-use primer on the detection, management, and improved
cardiovascular-based patient outcomes in adults undergoing
treatment for cancer or who have previously survived cancer
therapy. Edited by Drs. Daniel J. Lenihan, Joshua D. Mitchell, and
Kathleen W. Zhang, this concise yet comprehensive manual provides
high-yield information that reflects today's advances in risk
stratification, early diagnosis, and treatment of cardiovascular
disease-all in an easy-access, concisely bulleted format for
on-the-go reference. Discusses the multitude of complex adverse
effects of chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, and
radiation therapy to help optimize quality of life and prolong
survival in this vulnerable patient population. Includes chapters
on how cancer therapy affects the myocardium, valves, pericardium
and cardiac electrical system including handy reference tables on
typical side effects of commonly used cancer therapies. Provides
practical guidance in an easy-to-follow format that covers
definition, associated drugs/therapies, epidemiology, diagnosis
(history, physical exam, and diagnostic testing), treatment, and
outcome/prognosis. Covers the role of non-invasive imaging
modalities in the diagnosis and screening for cardiovascular
disease including echocardiography, MRI, and nuclear imaging.
Addresses frequently encountered clinical scenarios such as
preoperative or pre-high-risk treatment evaluation with up-to-date
expert consensus recommendations. Details emerging treatments and
