Referral and diagnosis of suspected cardiac amyloidosis

This Masterclass was developed in collaboration with the National Amyloidosis Centre, London UK

Assessment of a patient with suspected amyloidosis requires a careful diagnostic workup, including cardiac imaging to identify amyloid infiltration in heart tissue that could lead to diastolic dysfunction and heart failure. In this Masterclass, clinicians and scientists from the National Amyloidosis Centre describe the laboratory tests and imaging techniques used to make an accurate diagnosis.
Amyloidosis Masterclass: Signs and symptoms – red flags for cardiologists

Signs and symptoms of amyloidosis – red flags for cardiologists

This Masterclass was developed in collaboration with the National Amyloidosis Centre, London UK

Effective treatment of cardiac amyloidosis is dependent on early diagnosis; it is therefore important that clinicians have a high index of suspicion for the condition in their patients. Dr Josephine Mansell from the National Amyloidosis Centre outlines the “red flag” signs and symptoms that cardiologists, nurses or other healthcare professionals may observe in their patients, and which should prompt consideration of referral for a full diagnostic workup.
