Modelling the Effect of Anti-Cancer Drugs on the Vascular System

Over time, anti-cancer therapies can affect cardiovascular responses and develop hypertension and other cardiovascular diseases. In this video, Jeanette Woolard, Associate Professor in Cardiovascular Pharmacology at the University of Nottingham, discusses the use of minimized doppler flowmetry probes in blood vessels to investigate blood flow through distinct vascular beds and changes in blood pressure and heart rate in response to anti-cancer therapies.
