简介
Aims
The validation of cardiac scintigraphy with bone tracers for nonbiopsy confirmation of transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (ATTR-CA) has revolutionized the diagnosis of this condition. While most studies focused on left ventricle (LV) uptake, the significance of bone tracers uptake in the right ventricle (RV) leading to biventricular (BiV) uptake has not been investigated so far. BiV uptake at planar scintigraphy might reflect a more advanced ATTR-CA. To estimate the prevalence of BiV uptake and its potential prognostic role in ATTR-CA.
Methods and results
Multicentre, retrospective, observational study performed among four Italian referral centres for CA. Data of ATTR-CA patients who underwent bone tracers scintigraphy with acquisition of planar and SPECT imaging between November 2014 and June 2020 at participating centres were centrally revised. ATTR-CA was …
