NCT01434134

Brief Summary

Women treated for breast cancer are at increased risk for cardiovascular disease, including heart failure. In this study, by using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), the investigators want to assess if heart failure medications such as beta blockers and angiotensin receptor blockers can prevent cardiac dysfunction during early breast cancer therapy.
