Reduction in regional longitudinal systolic strain after chemotherapy has been reported in previous studies. Nonetheless, in pre-radiotherapy patients with breast cancer in our cardio-oncology department, we have noticed that left ventricular longitudinal strain is decreased earlier in the infero-posterior and infero-septal segments than in the other segments.
