Hi lybrate-user, late cardiac complications can occur as a sequelae of chemotherapy or radiotherapy (if left breast cancer) she received for breast cancer. Or this might be a completely unrelated complication, probably because of other co-morbidities. If ejection fraction is 60% with only mild dysfunction and she is asymptomatic, we can closely observe her regularly.

Yes it is ok. Little problem in 2D-Echo won't harm patient as cancer treatment is the first priorty. Oncosurgeons and oncologist always keep watch on these investigations. If any problem will happen they will let you know. So don't worry.
