Abstract The introduction of novel high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) assays has made it possible to measure cardiac troponin levels that are up to 10-fold lower than those detectable by conventional cardiac troponin (cTn) assays. With such novel assays, an elevated risk of major adverse cardiovascular events was noted across the continuum of cTn levels, with an incremental risk of… View more

Among the various cardiovascular diseases, non-ischaemic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) represents a major cause of morbidity and mortality.1 DCM is characterised by the presence of left ventricular dilatation and systolic dysfunction in the absence of coronary artery disease or abnormal loading conditions (hypertension, valvular disease).2 It originates from several aetiologies and includes… View more

Cardio-oncology is an emerging field of cardiology that focuses on cardiovascular diseases in patients with cancer. The classic cardio-oncology paradigm is the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of cardiotoxicity resulting from chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy. Diagnosis and treatment of primary and metastatic cardiac tumours as well as cardiac amyloidosis can be considered ‘less classical’… View more
