The Diagnostic Value of Global Longitudinal Strain Combined with Cardiac Biomarkers on Early Detection of Anthracycline-Related Cardiac Dysfunction

Cardiac dysfunction associated with anthracyclines is a significant side effect of chemotherapy, and early detection is crucial. We aimed to assess the diagnostic value of combining global longitudinal strain (GLS) with biomarkers for the early detection of anthracycline-related cardiac dysfunction. In a prospective cohort study, 80 consecutive adult patients (mean age 51 ± 11 years; 68.8
