Core Tip	Cardiomyopathy is a potential complication of various anticancer drugs, such as anthracyclines and biological therapy. Left ventricular dysfunction is the most common manifestation of cardiotoxicity and is monitored with left ventricular ejection fraction measurement, but it is a late manifestation of myocardial injury. Thus, the cardiologist and oncologist should collaborate to identify new non-invasive techniques to detect cardiac dysfunction at an early and potentially reversible stage, before the onset of clinical manifestation. To achieve this aim, nuclear imaging techniques may offer good future perspectives for early detection of myocardial damage using novel molecular tracers.
