Table 2 Guidelines to perform multigated acquisition in adult patients on doxorubicin[14]
| Baseline MUGA (before starting of chemotherapy or before 100 mg/m2 dose | If LVEF is ≤ 30% - no doxorubicin |
| If baseline LVEF is > 30% and < 50% | MUGA to perform before each dose |
| If baseline LVEF is ≥ 50% | MUGA to perform at the dose of 250-300 mg/m2, 400-450 mg/m2 and thereafter before each higher dose |
| If the fall of LVEF from previous study is ≥ 10% or if LVEF is ≤ 30% | Discontinue doxorubicin |
