Multimodality Imaging in Cardiac Amyloidosis.
Gerard T GiblinSarah A M CuddyPublished in: Current cardiology reports (2021)
Recent advances in multimodality cardiac imaging have allowed for earlier diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis resulting in earlier initiation of life-saving therapy in cases of light chain amyloidosis and life-prolonging therapy in transthyretin amyloidosis. With these advances in multimodality imaging, it is important for cardiologists and cardiac imagers to be aware of the subtleties of early disease, the appropriate diagnostic approach as well as understanding the practicalities and pitfalls that are encountered with each modality.
