The authors assess the role of cancer therapy in cardiotoxicity, beginning with a discussion of myocardial disease induced by chemotherapy, radiation, and biological agents. They examine pericardial disease and other types of cardiovascular disease, and throughout consider the pathogenetic mechanisms and the clinical issues of diagnosis, treatment, and preventive measures.
