Early Changes in Left Ventricular Systolic Function After Anthracycline-Based Chemotherapy

FIGURE 2

Time-dependent changes in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (left y-axis), and mean midwall circumferential strain (right y-axis) of patients treated with anthracycline-based chemotherapy. The values are given as mean ± SE. Mean left ventricular (LV) midwall circumferential strain deteriorated in association with a decrease in LVEF 6 months after administration of low to moderate doses of anthracycline-based chemotherapy.
