The AMYLI score (RWT*E/e') may have a role as an initial screening tool for CA. A < 2.22 value excludes the diagnosis in patients undergoing a diagnostic screening for CA, while a < 2.36 and a < 2.22 value may be better considered in the subsets with suspected cardiac AL amyloidosis or unexplained hypertrophy, respectively.
