Synopsis

Keywords: Heart, MR Value, cardiac magnetic resonance-feature trackingEarly diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis (CA) and accurate assessment of cardiac function is important for CA patients. LV strain and strain rate obtained by cardiac magnetic resonance-featured tracking (CMR-FT) have been developed as sensitive indicators of myocardial function. This study aimed to evaluate myocardial function in patients with CA by strain and strain rate to assess their prognostic value in patients with CA. Our data showed that strain rate could be used to assess the degree of cardiac impairment in CA and the difference with HCM providing prognostic information for all-cause mortality in CA patients.
