Cardiac Screening in Survivors of Hodgkin's Disease Treated With Mediastinal Irradiation
Sponsor: Dana-Farber Cancer Institute
Summary
The main purpose of this study is to determine if it is possible to put into practice a cardiac screening program for survivors of Hodgkin's disease. In this study, we would also like to screen for cardiac risk factors that can be modified either through life-style changes or medications, to uncover significant abnormal heart findings in which treatments may be needed, and to see if there is a link between cardiac health and quality of life.
