Cardiac transthyretin amyloidosis
Imaging findings
Cardiac MRI shows left ventricular hypertrophy with diffuse late gadolinium enhancement involving both the subendocardium and the mid-myocardium of the septum and lateral wall.
Key takeaways
Transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis typically presents with more pronounced myocardial hypertrophy and a more transmural or patchy mid-wall enhancement pattern compared to the predominantly subendocardial enhancement of light chain amyloidosis.
