Cancer care is not only about treating cancer —it’s also about protecting the heart.
At the University Hospital La Paz in Madrid, cardiology and oncology specialists work together in a dedicated cardio-oncology team to monitor and manage cardiotoxicity, a serious side effect of cancer treatment.

Led by Dr. López (Cardiology) and Dr. Higuera (Oncology), the team uses AI-enhanced ultrasound and cardiac imaging to safeguard patients’ heart health while they undergo cancer therapy.

In this video, breast cancer patient Kathy S. Compton shares how this multidisciplinary approach helped guide her treatment and support both her oncological and cardiac health.
