Time-dependent change of relative apical longitudinal strain index in patients with wild-type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy

Time-dependent change of relative apical longitudinal strain index in patients with wild-type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy

Aim: This study was conducted to investigate the meaning of left ventricular (LV) apical sparing in patients with wild-type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt-CM). Methods and results: 165 patients who were diagnosed with ATTRwt-CM at Kumamoto University Hospital from January 2002 to Decem...
