Multimodality Imaging Reveals Divergent Responses of Left and Right Heart to Treatment in Cardiac Amyloidosis

Cardiac amyloidosis is associated with very high morbidity and mortality. Only if treated early, cardiac amyloidosis responds well to therapy, and early recognition with a full differential diagnostic workup including multimodality imaging is therefore critical at first presentation.
