Brief Summary: The Prefect Pilot Study evaluates the use of the EC approved MyoStrain SENC CMR Imaging System to detect cardiotoxicity from drugs used to treat cancer (e.g. Breast Cancer and Lymphomas).
Detailed Description: The study is a prospective, observational, single center, observational clinical study that will enroll up to 50 patients undergoing chemotherapy and/or targeted therapy with or without concomitant radiotherapy for the treatment of breast cancer or lymphoma. Enrolled subjects will be evaluated with the MyoStrain SENC CMR Imaging System that measures myocardial strain during standard Cardiac Magnetic Resonance imaging at baseline through 6 month follow-up. The MyoStrain SENC CMR Imaging System has been approved with an EC Certificate according to Directive 93/42/EEC on Medical Devices, Annex II excluding Section 4 (CE 657862) in respect of: Design, development and manufacture of software for the quantification of cardiac MRI images. MyoStrain measures the contraction of heart muscle in one heartbeat per image plane. With 6 image planes (3 short axis \& 3 long axis), a complete measure of the health of the myocardium, both regionally and globally, can be obtained within a minute without requiring contrast injection or a breath-hold. Heart health will be monitored throughout cancer therapy to quantify the toxic effects of chemotherapy with or without a reduction in traditional measures such as ejection fraction, and the ability to reverse observed cardiotoxicity with standard heart failure therapy. The goal of the study is to determine the ability to detect subclinical cardiotoxicity before extensive damage causes the reduction in traditional measures, which are currently used to categorize heart failure and serve as the basis of treatment guidelines.
