Late  CHF  is  due  to  a  nonischemic  dilated  cardiomyopathy.ECHO:  LVEF  100  mg/m2DOXorubicin.EF-EVAL  =  Refer  patient  for  echocardiogram,  radionuclide  angiography,  or  other  imaging  test  for  left  ventricular  Ejection  Fraction  EVALuation.LVEF-OK  =  LVEF  normal  or  if  follow-up  study  shows  decline  in  less  than  10%  from  baseline  study  and  absolute  EF  ≥30%.LVEF65  years  are  predisposed  to  cardiotoxicity  at  lower  cumulative  doses  of  doxorubicin.1.
