The aim of this study was to evaluate a reliable clinical tool to assess subtle differences in left ventricular cardiotoxicity remodeling in acute lymphoblastic leukemia survivors. Cine-DENSE MRI provided accurate evaluation of heart’s functionality of young cancer survivors in the short-axis view. Significant strain differences between groups were mostly observed in basal septal and apical septal segments while most of the other segments did not show significant differences. The next step of this study will be to include a control group of healthy volunteers.
