Cardio-oncology

Forming the foundations of your cardio-oncology care pathway


Supporting cardiovascular prevention workflows in line with the 2022 ESC Guidelines on cardio-oncology

    Managing cardiotoxicity risks at every step

    Cancer treatment is a challenging and highly stressful time for patients – but it also brings dangers for their cardiovascular health. Since cancer patients have on average a 2-6 times higher cardiovascular disease mortality risk than the general population1, prompt, reliable identification of at-risk patients is crucial. And once treatment is underway, close monitoring could help cardiologists detect potential biomarkers that may indicate the early stages of cardiac toxicity.

    The recently published European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Guidelines for Cardio-oncology (available here2) reflect these priorities for the prevention and monitoring of cardiotoxicity risks. And with our comprehensive workflow solutions and advanced cardiovascular ultrasound systems, we’re ready to support you and your patients every step of the way along their cancer treatment journey.

    Worldwide, an estimated
    28.4 million new cancer cases are projected to occur in 2040,
    a
    47% rise from 2020 – making cardiology care for cancer survivors increasingly important3
