Resumen
[Abstract]
Amyloidosis is an infiltrative disease caused by extracellular protein deposition
that has accumulated a lot of scientific production in recent years. Different types
of amyloidosis can affect the heart. Transthyretin amyloidosis and light chain
amyloidosis are the two most common types of cardiac amyloidosis. These
entities have a poor prognosis, so accurate diagnostic techniques are imperative
for determining an early therapeutic approach. Recent advances in cardiac
imaging and diagnostic strategies show that these tools are safe and can avoid the
use of invasive diagnostic techniques to histological confirmation, such as
endomyocardial biopsy. We performed a review on the diagnostic and prognostic
implications of different cardiac imaging techniques in cardiac amyloidosis. We
mainly focus on reviewing echocardiography, cardiac magnetic resonance,
computed tomography and nuclear imaging techniques and the different safety
measurements that can be done with each of them.
