Cardiac amyloidosis is an infiltrative disease which requires a high degree of clinical suspicion for appropriate diagnosis. Early diagnosis and the definition of the type of amyloidosis play a key role in the early treatment and prognosis of this disease. In this context, the use of cardiac biomarkers such as troponins and NT-proBNT associated with analysis by multimodality imaging methods like echocardiographic techniques such as strain, nuclear medicine, and cardiovascular resonance imaging have an increasing role in patients with cardiac amyloidosis. This article details the role of non-invasive diagnostic methods in patients with cardiac amyloidosis.

Early diagnosis and the definition of the type of amyloidosis play a key role in the early treatment and prognosis of this disease.

RESUMO A amiloidose cardíaca é uma doença infiltrativa que exige um alto grau de suspeição clínica para o diagnóstico apropriado. O diagnóstico precoce e a definição do subtipo de amiloidose têm um papel fundamental para a terapêutica e prognóstico desta doença. Nesse contexto, o emprego de biomarcadores cardíacos como as troponinas e NT-proBNT associados à análise por métodos de imagem multimodalidade por técnicas ecocardiográficas atuais como o strain, medicina nuclear e a ressonância magnética cardíaca têm papel crescente em pacientes com amiloidose. Este artigo detalha a utilização dos métodos não invasivos para a avaliação de pacientes com amiloidose cardíaca.
