Yield of bone scintigraphy screening for transthyretin-related cardiac amyloidosis in different conditions: Methodological issues and clinical implications.

Screening with bone scintigraphy found an 11-15% TTR-CA prevalence in patients with AS, HFpEF and LVH/HCM. AS and HFpEF patients were typically older than 80 years at TTR-CA diagnosis and frequently accompanied by comorbidities. Several studies showed limitations in the application of recommended TTR-CA diagnostic algorithm, which should be addressed in future prospective studies.
