Tips and tricks for ATTR SPECT imaging. 👇do not depend on planar -->Do SPECT 🫵 PYP uptake can be patchy or diffuse ✍️ Expect wash out with HMDP and scan at 1 hour @MyASNC #CVNuc @premsoman123 @NotNoninvasive

Supply chain issues make it tough to rely on Tc-99m PYP for ATTR-CM, potentially delaying treatment. But did you know Tc-99m HMDP is a viable alternative? Join us next week to learn best practices for the use of each tracer & key differences. Register👉bit.ly/4hHf8xm

Excellent MASTERCLASS ON CARDIAC AMYLOIDOSIS from ASNC every year gets better - particularly exciting for our patients with new treatments on the horizon Important quality measures have to be in place THANK YOU @MyASNC @premsoman123 @MasriAhmadMD @NotNoninvasive @sarahcud

What causes “thick walls” in the heart? 🔎 • Hypertrophy: Genetic (HCM), Hemodynamic (HTN, Aortic Stenosis), Endocrine, Athlete’s Heart • Infiltrative: Amyloidosis, Hemochromatosis • Storage Disorders: Fabry, Danon, Friedreich’s Ataxia #Amyloidosis #CVNuc @MyASNC

Sensitivity of Biopsies in AL #Amyloidosis 🎯 • Fat pad alone ~77% • Combine fat pad + bone marrow → ~89% sensitivity • Peripheral nerve, skin, liver, GI → 60~85% • Kidney & Heart → around 95%🌟 #CVNuc @MyASNC

Takeaways on genetic testing for #Amyloidosis: • Common types: ATTRwt > AL > AA = LECT2 > hereditary • 15% of cases are hereditary 🧬 (watch for family history, younger onset, & TTR gene variants) • DPD/PYP can be positive in hereditary amyloid 🔎 #CVNuc @MyASNC

🔎 Key Echo Takeaways for #Amyloidosis: • Thick walls (>12 mm) + large atria + pericardial effusion = not always specific • “Starry sky” sign 🌌 isn’t specific—use GLS to quantify • Apical sparing with normal LVEF can be a major clue 🏆 #CVNuc @MyASNC
