Summary

In this study, we investigate the cardiopulmonary health of survivors who underwent cancer treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or lymphoma during childhood, compared with healthy controls. Modern imaging techniques (MRI, MSOT, and echocardiography) as well as questionnaires assessing cardiopulmonary and mental health are used.
