Cardiac amyloidosisAL amyloidosisATTR amyloidosisBone scanSPECT/CTPET/CTCardiac amyloidosis (CA) is a type of systemic amyloidosis, in which abnormal amyloid fibril is deposited in extracellular space of myocardium. Most common subtypes of CA are amyloidosis of immunoglobulin light chain (AL) and ...
Sometimes with very early inflammation, the cardiac FDG PET scan can be positive before there are overt findings on cardiac MRI. For both cardiac MRI and cardiac FDG PET, the distribution of abnormality is critical in terms of stratifying the likelihood of cardiac sarcoidosis. For cases that are...
The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of 124I-evuzamitide for diagnosing cardiac amyloidosis. The co-primary endpoints are 1) To determine the sensitivity of PET/CT imaging with 124I-evuzami...

Cardiac ECV was higher in amyloid patients (definite amyloidosis, 0.43 ± 0.12; possible amyloidosis, 0.34 ± 0.11) than in control subjects (0.26 ± 0.04, p < 0.05); even in amyloid patients without late gadolinium enhancement (0.35 ± 0.10), ECV was significantly higher than in the control...
However, 18F-florbetapir PET/CT has limitations for the evaluation of liver and bilateral kidneys. Physiological activity may have masked underlying hepatic amyloidosis because the liver is the main site of excretion of 18F-florbetapir. 18F-florbetapir uptake is high in patients with pulmonary, ...
