How Is Myocardial Toxicity Diagnosed?

Myocardial toxicity is diagnosed through a combination of clinical assessment, imaging, and laboratory tests:
- Electrocardiogram (ECG): Detects electrical disturbances in the heart.
- Echocardiography: Assesses structural and functional changes in the myocardium.
- Biomarkers: Cardiac biomarkers like troponins are elevated in myocardial injury.
- Histopathology: Biopsy and histological examination can provide definitive evidence of myocardial damage.
