Abstract
Cancer and Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) are the most common causes of death and disability in many countries. Cancer and CVD are closely related in terms of both scientific and clinical perspectives. Oncocardiology has recently gained attention by oncologists, cardiologists, and radiologists for mutual work on pathophysiology analysis and treatment strategy [1-3]. In various clinical settings, these specialists may collaborate in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer patients with cardiovascular disease.
