Technetium pyrophosphate (Tc-99m-PYP) scintigraphy is a simple and widely available radiotracer useful to differentiate transthyretin from light-chain amyloidosis in patients with advanced cardiac amyloidosis. We examined the utility of serial Tc-99m-PYP scanning to quantify amyloid burden over time ...
cardiac amyloidosisheart failurepreserved ejection fractionTransthyretin amyloid deposition is present in 17% of autopsies of patients with heart failure and a preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). "Technetium-pyrophosphate scintigraphy (~99mTc-PYP) is sensitive and specific to diagnose cardiac transthyretin ...
