Özet

Aim: Treatment-associated cardiomyopathy which is one of the side effects of treatment, can be asymptomatic in Hodgkin lymphoma patients. The aim of this study was to find out whether tissue Doppler echocardiography was superior to conventional echocardiography in determining potential cardiac problems in the patients diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma.
