Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The diagnosis of cardiac amyloid can be challenging; requiring a high clinical index of suspicion and often many diagnostic tests to confirm. We describe a case demonstrating the characteristic pattern of amyloid by cardiovascular magnetic resonance and how this imaging modality can aid in the diagnosis.
