Overview

  • Echocardiography may be helpful in the diagnosis of mycosis fungoides.

Echocardiography/Ultrasound

Echocardiography may be helpful in the diagnosis of mycosis fungoides. Findings on an echocardiography suggestive mycosis fungoides include:[1]

  • ST/T wave and QT changes on EKG
  • Complete metabolic panel (CMP)
  • Romedepsis and vorinostat, histone deacetylase are also known to cause blood dyscrasias, ST/T wave and QT changes on EKG and GI side effects. In these patients, baseline EKG, complete metabolic panel (CMP) and complete blood count need to be obtained before infusion is initiated
