There is a critical shortage of accessible patient education materials on cardiac amyloidosis. Providing materials that meet NIH readability standards is essential to alleviate patient anxieties and improve adherence to treatment protocols. Academic medical centers, along with cardiology and oncology groups,...
Aortic stenosis (AS) and transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (CA) are common conditions affecting the elderly, and both carry high morbidity and mortality, particularly if left untreated. Dual AS-CA pathology is becoming increasingly recognized but with uncertain prognostic significance (1,2). We perform...
Patients with rare conditions such as cardiac amyloidosis (CA) are difficult to identify, given the similarity of disease manifestations to more prevalent disorders. The deployment of approved therapies for CA has been limited by delayed diagnosis of this disease. Artificial intelligence (AI) could en...

Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging:CMR has evolved as a key test in diagnosing cardiac amyloidosis. It helps differentiate amyloidosis from hypertensive heart disease and sarcoidosis. Additionally, it provides information about tissue characterization and helps detect early cardiac amyloidosis. However, it ca...

Amyloid light-chain (AL) amyloidosis is a systemic disease characterized by the deposition of misfolded immunoglobulin light chain, causing organ failure, and in particular cardiac involvement is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. We report the case of a 47-year-old man without prior card...
