Article Title: | The changes in cardiac physiology with aging and the implications for the treating oncologist |
Abstract: | The link between cancer, cardiovascular disease, and aging is well documented. In this review, we highlight the physiologic and pathologic changes associated with the cardiovascular aging process, the role they play when interfaced with various cancer therapies and the implications for the treating oncologist. © 2015 Elsevier Inc. |
