ABSTRACT
Amyloidosis is a rare, heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by extracellular infiltration and deposition of misfolded fibrils in different organs and tissues. A timely diagnosis is important as it can improve outcome. Echocardiography has emerged as a powerful tool to prompt suspicion and refer patients to second-level evaluation to reach a definitive diagnosis. In this scenario, new echo techniques offer new insight into the cardiac amyloidosis (CA) pathophysiology and clinical course. The present review aims to describe the developments in echocardiographic assessment of patients with suspected CA and it summarizes new available echocardiographic scores able to guide a definite diagnosis.
