Cardiac MRI in Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Associated Pericarditis

Checkpoint inhibitors are novel and promising anticancer agents. However, acute pericarditis is the second most common chemotherapy‐associated cardiotoxicity and associated with high mortality up to 21%. Cardiac MRI offers a one‐stop‐shop cardiac analysis to precisely detect chemotherapy‐associated...

Sumario:Checkpoint inhibitors are novel and promising anticancer agents. However, acute pericarditis is the second most common chemotherapy‐associated cardiotoxicity and associated with high mortality up to 21%. Cardiac MRI offers a one‐stop‐shop cardiac analysis to precisely detect chemotherapy‐associated cardiotoxicity without nephrotoxic contrast dye and ionizing radiation.
