Radiotherapy (RT) as an adjuvant treatment for breast cancer (BC), has caused a reduction of recurrences and BC-related deaths. But it has also induced cardiovascular mortality. Oxidative stress is the principle mediator of RT-induced heart disease, similar to many conventional cardiovascular risk factors. The aggregate effect of cardiovascular conditions, RT of heart substructures, implied techniques, and population cardiac mortality rates is not well understood. Due to uncertainties in this field, this article aims to briefly review the recommended strategies for risk assessment, plan optimization, and screening for prevention of RT-induced heart disease in BC patients. © 2019 Elsevier Inc
