It’s mandatory to make an estimation of global cardiovascular risk combined with subclinical targeted organ damage, taking into account the increased cardiovascular risk due to the effects of the concomitant oncologic treatment.

Operative Protocol

In symptomatic patients for stroke/TIA or in the presence of carotid murmurs, it is indicated to perform a study with Doppler ultrasound integrated by MRI angiography or CT angiography.

These surveys are also indicated for asymptomatic patients who have other manifestations of vascular disease and who have a moderate-to-high cardiovascular risk or for patients exposed to RT by at least 10 years. In the case of proven carotid disease is indicated to carry on an annual survey, otherwise, just a follow-up every 5 years.
