Overview
Join Dr Kamari Ositelu (Northwestern University, US), Dr Anjali Rao (Northwestern University, US), Dr Dan Lenihan (Saint Francis Healthcare System, US) and Dr Joe Carver (University of Pennsylvania, US) as they discuss cardiac health in cancer patients.
Explore the prevalence and risks of myocardial infarction in cancer patients and gain insights into the latest research and clinical findings. Understand the role and effectiveness of high-sensitivity cardiac troponins in diagnosing and managing cardiac issues in cancer patients and learn from leading experts in oncology and cardiology.
The partnership combines Radcliffe’s rapidly growing global community and expertise in delivering the most innovative virtual events, with the knowledge and experience of IC-OS’s members, to curate webinars that challenge current practice and have real-world patient benefits.
This webinar is for cardiologists, haematologists, oncologists, nurse practitioners, nurses and pharmacists.
The International Cardio-Oncology Society is a committed group of professionals throughout the world who are striving to protect the cardiovascular health of all patients who are undergoing cancer therapy. By optimising the cardiac status of patients with cancer before, during and after their treatment, IC-OS is collectively improving the overall outcomes including survival and quality of life. IC-OS aims to provide the latest scientific and clinical education and research for anyone treating patients with cancer in the hopes of enhancing cardiovascular protection.
